I have custom requirement to do , what is the best way to do it?
develop it as a plugin or customize source code (core).
The best way is to customize nopcommerce using plugins. You can override part of the code, add extension, custom logic by using plugin. But It will be time consuming and costly sometime.
If you have those issue you can customize the code directly.
but plugin is the best way to customize nopcommerce.
If you need to know more details, please ask me your questions.
Can you clarify your question in more detail, if you want to develop a nopcommerce plugin you can check the Documentation here? or ask a more specific question.

did anyone ever customize the Twigmo addon basic theme for cs-cart? I am trying to write custom css files for font size and color. What I tried:
Using the visual Editor: after working for like 2 hours changing the styles, I tried saving and apparently my current subscription doesn't allow me to do custom files using visual editor
I tried searching for other solutions: fell on this twigmo skin editing which basically tells me to create a custom css file called custom{theme-name}.css. I did but i still can't figure out what classes the twigmo for what. Does anyone know where i can find this? i am also posting a question on the forum to see if they can help me.
Thank-you in advance. hope my question is clear enough.
The free "Starter" Twigmo subscription plan doesn't provide an ability to customize CSS. You have to subscribe for any paid plan. In this case the visual editor will be available for you. Also you will be able to write your custom CSS code in the visual editor.
Regarding your second solution - it is for old version and doesn't work for the Twigmo 3.x.
Hovewer you can modify the design/themes/[your_theme]/templates/addons/twigmo/mobile_index.tpl file. You can add your CSS code there. It is not the most convenient way, but it is free.
Sorry for my title. I just want to ask simple question. I have a project now and I used Opencart because I am creating an ecommerce type of website. And I really understand how opencart works. Now my question is, I have another project this project is more on displaying company's profile and blog. So much more on posting articles. Now is it right for me to use Opencart for this? What I think is just create a custom functionality for this. And remove all the non related functions.
Do I need to switch to another CMS? Or can I still use Opencart?
If it is not right to use Opencart. I am planning to study other CMS. So my choice are Wordpress or Joomla.
Ok that's all. Thanks.
I think the solution you are looking for is probably MijoShop: http://miwisoft.com/joomla-extensions/mijoshop-joomla-shopping-cart
MijoShop is based on OpenCart but runs on Joomla so you get the best of both worlds.
I am basically a Java/Oracle guy. I was told that it is possible to build any simple Web app with Wordpress.
I successfully installed Wordpress on my machine and am trying to create a text book app. For this purpose, it is an employee database, with fields Name, Address, Department, Designation. I need to have the usual create/edit/search/delete functionality.
The problem with Wordpress is, I really don't know where to start, or how to customize pages.
Am I barking up the wrong tree? Is Wordpress more for blogging/news style websites than for traditional database applications? If not, how do I customize Wordpress to create the application described above?
Thanking you in advance.
Viability
Wordpress is a great system for many different applications, not just blogging/news style websites.
There are many articles out there that go in to great depth on this, but here is a good one right of: http://torquemag.io/app-dev/
Getting Started
As with any project, there clearly is more than one way to skin this cat, but right off, here are some basics I'd recommend you check out about customizing your Wordpress install:
How to create a child theme: http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
How to create a page template: http://codex.wordpress.org/Page_Templates
How to develop a plugin: http://codex.wordpress.org/Writing_a_Plugin
Plugins
In addition to this, i'd highly recommend a few plugins, which will help make things easy for you:
Advanced Custom Fields
•Makes it really easy to add Custom Fields, to allow you to store custom information, associated with a post, page, taxonomy, user etc. really easy to use, has great documentation and support, as well as a really nice UI. I'd also recommend paying the 25 bucks for the repeater field, which is really useful.
Custom Post Type UI
•Easy way to add custom post types to your wordpress instal, the default post types are: posts, links, pages. With this plugin you can add custom post types for things like say, employees.
Conclusion
In conclusion, I don't think you're barking up the wrong tree, I think that wordpress can be a simple elegant solution for a web application, and can easily be molded into almost anything you can come up with.
For developed such kinds of application you need to develop a wordpress plugins. You can handle any kinds of database operation there. You can add create/edit/search/delete functionality
I have a simple question. What is the best way to create a form like this one http://www.condoroyalty.com/book-a-tour with the same features?
I can do it myself but what is the best way to integrate it? Develop the form under template, creating a plugin or...
I have another way, to use plugins but the plugins won't let me edit that form and I couldn't add the calendar.
Please give me some tips or a link.
Thank you!
