ECWID in Dreamweaver

[TigerMO]

I see that there is a plug-in for embedding an ECWID storefront into a web page created with Muse, but I'm using Dreamweaver to manage our web site. Any suggestions on making that work most efficiently? Thanks.

I don't know anything about ECWID. 

If you use WordPress to create your site, there is a WP plugin for it.

it's depend on what you expect... if you're on an ECWID platform, from there you can generate an embeded code, from the Others platform choice...

now, if that is your question, in within DW there is no extension to interact directly with the ECWID's API

Thank you. I know about embedding the code. I was just hoping someone in the Community had some experience with doing that and might have some suggestions.

nope nothing more than the API documentation that @BenPleysier point at.

none of the code editor that I use has extension for such a service, sorry

First, stop using Muse. It is end of life and before it gets to a point where it stops running on your computer next time you invest in a new one, it would be better to solve those issues now.

Second with regards to embedding an ecommerce store within a Dreamweaver site, that's not normally how it would work.  Typically with that type of software you would bring your theme developed/tested in a third party application and import it into their software. However, I would recommend that you reach out to them directly about theming your storefront as they would be able to provide you with better information than us.

I don't use Muse. I only mentioned it because there had been a plug-in that assisted with embedding ECWID store coding into a Muse-created web site. I was hoping that someone on here had experience they could share with embedding ECWID code into Dreamweaver.

Use the RESTful API platform as explained in

Do you know how to work with code, specifically HTML & JavaScript?

Read chapters, do code exercises and take quizzes at the end.

Coding skills are essential to make the most of Dreamweaver and/or any other code editor you use.
