My first Estore. Wordpress/OpenCart/Something else.

So I have a product line,Domain,Hosting. all my site experience up until this point has been with Wordpress.

Someone suggested a killer looking theme from themeforest called Cartmania. They person who suggested it even gave me a rapid share link to download it. Being the legit guy I am (hey I try) I actually went and purchased the theme.

Spent 4 hours trying to install and get it set up..couldn't figure out what the hell I was doing wrong. Hired someone to straighten it out. It ended up the theme I purchased was only good up to a certain version of OpenCart and would not work with the latest version.

I wound up having an arguement with themeforest until they credited my themeforest account for the purchase price.

Now after having played with the back end of OpenCart I am not all that crazy about it. Seems to be cumbersome etc.

anyone have a recommendations on which direction I should go in here?

 

I prefer you to use "Presta Shop" it is easy and open source script!

 

Why dont you better try some other free open source script like ZEUSCART ?

 

My buddy said he's had nothing but a good experience with Volusion.

 

zencart is also free and open source

 

I prefer zeuscart which is good to use.

 

I'm about to trial presta i've heard its useful, I'll update depending on my experience.

 

I prefer you to use magento template , it's really good for a nornal store
