Add a blog page

This topic has been marked as not a support question.

Hello….I have tried searching the forum, but have had no luck with finding a specific answer to my question.  What is the best way to add a blog page to the shoppica theme.  I know there are plugins out there, but was not sure if they were compatible with this theme.  Thanks for the help.

Hi Stuart,

Unfortunately, we haven’t had the chance to test any blog extensions for OpenCart. Generally, they should be compatible, but you will need to match the styles and some markup to these of Shoppica. I think this will be the major task, when integrating such an extension.

There is always an option to install WordPress and style it the Shoppica way, but we think, this will be more time consuming.

Best,
Svetoslav

Hi Stuart,

I was looking through the forums and I myself happened to be wondering the same thing. I wandered on over to your webpage and I couldn’t hellp but notice that you had successfully added a blog page to your site. Could you please share how you did this and if there was an extension you used which one?

Thanks in advanced

I am also looking to see what the best blog extension would be for this theme. Would love any pointers anyone can give.

I have been lucky to find a blog system that the developer took the time to get it to work with the shoppica theme which is above and beyond what he needed to do. The Blog system itself is fantastic and I cannot recommend it more.

Thank you!

Were you able to import a blog from an existing location? Couldn’t find much info on that extension’s support pages.

Hi! It’s July and, before I purchase this extension you guys are talking about, I’d like to know if the developers of Shoppica have worked out something.
