To create a template for your shopping cart to use you can either:
1. Create the page directly in the WSWYG editor.
2. Switch to HTML View by selecting "Edit template in plain text / HTML" and then type or paste in the HTML
3. Or, the easiest way would be to use the import feature to import a page to use as a template.
- To use the import feature, you would type or paste a url into the "Import web page to use as template" field. The web address/url would be the location of the page that you'd like to use as a template in the shopping cart.
- Once you have the url in that field, click the "Import Page / Template" button. That will import the page and will attempt to change all the relative image urls, css urls, etc. to fully specified urls.
- After the page is imported select and delete any unwanted items
- Copy and then remove the [displayshopitemshere] placeholder from the top of your template field, and then type or paste it into the location on your page where you'd like the shop information to appear (generally in the center portion of your page).
