Support - Zen Cart Store Manager

Why is this program free?

From a pure feature-point-of-view I'm pretty happy with the app - I've kept things simple and easy to use which is what I wanted. Perhaps when some reporting features are added I'll launch a pro version. But until then... free seemed like the best price.

Will this work on my phone?

At the moment the Zen Store Manager only works on iPhones or iPod touches running the latest OS from Apple and on Windows Phone 7 devices from Microsoft. Support for Android/Blackberry is possible if there is demand for it.

Installation StepsNOTE before you are able to use the Zen Store Mobile Manager with your site you will need to install a small file from this site. The file simply acts as a gateway between the iPhone app and the online store. It waits for requests from your iPhone then packages up the results and sends them back you for viewing.

You can download the file here (PHP) or here (ZIP). After downloading the file you will need to upload it via FTP to your store's admin folder - if you have renamed your admin folder then place the file in your newly named admin folder. You must upload the uncompressed PHP file - so if you chose to download the ZIP file please uncompress it then upload the resulting PHP directly to your store's admin.

Once you have installed the PHP file load up the Zen Store Manager mobile app on your iPhone and choose the 'Settings' tab at the bottom of the screen. You will need to fill in at least the top two text entry fields (domain and admin folder) - the rest of the entries are optional. The store's domain is the address that people enter to view your site - so if it is https://store.happyhummingbirds.com that is exactly what you should enter for the domain... if your users visit an address such as http://stopthesearch.com then that is what should be entered. For the admin folder name you should enter in the folder that you personally use to view your store's admin... this may be /admin or perhaps /storeadmin.
