User Manuals For store owners/managers and web developers
If this is your first osCommerce store experience or you have used many other ecommerce programs you should start here. These are desk references you will use every day.
No special skills are needed to use user manuals, although some advanced html techniques are included for those web developers who wish to use them.
If you want the basics of setting up and managing osCommerce, CRE Loaded or ZenCart stores, get Users Manuals.
osCommerce Users Manuals are the only guides to using the Administrative Module of osCommerce.
Technical Manuals Installation and configuration manuals for web developers.
If you have previously set up an osCommerce store, OR are an html/PHP web developer and now wish to install, configure, and troubleshoot your own, the osCommerce Technical Manual will be right for you.
You should be experienced at using an FTP program and have some HTML and PHP experience. It is helpful to have some scripting language experience, but it is not required.
NOTE: There are currently no osCommerce books available for PHP programmers.
