I’m so sorry and even embarrassed to say this, but I can’t make this work… can anyone just paste the exact code for the template we’re supposed to make to have it work? Thanks

Hi there.

After hours of mulling over the issue, I finally got my aStore integrated into my site. One thing, though. You can set the scrolling to “auto” so that the scrollbars appear only when needed.

In addition, Amazon makes customizing various colors via the CSS for the aStore a snap.

Thanks again!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I have been trying to figure out how to do this for weeks. I learned a lot and made quite a nice store I think. Thanks again!

Hello,

I’ve taken a look at your tutorial here for embedding my aStore into my Wordpress.org website, but I have to admit that I am a bit confused.

I’ve included my site in the website link for reference.

What I’d like to do is create a new page on my site, between the page tabs Join and Artwork called Shop.

Inside of the page Shop, I’d like to embed my aStore.

However, as you mentioned, the storefront is too wide to be adequately placed within the margins of the post area. So I am wondering how do I remove the sidebars from showing just on the Shop page while keeping them as they are on other pages of my site?

I also notice, from looking at a few blog sites listed in some of the comments, that some users have a sidebar option that shows a preview of a few of their shop items and once a user clicks on that sidebar preview, they are taken into a page on their Wordpress site without sidebars that showcases the shop entirely. This is another option I am interested in for my website.

If you can help me with this issue, I’d greatly appreciate it and any time you take out of your schedule to do so.

Warmest Regards,

Allyson N. Jason

There are a few limitations with iframe based astores. These are listed at astoreproxy.com and also the solution.

Hi, thanks for this great tutorial.

Our site is live in 20 minutes

(for anyone struggling – don’t just copy the code above – you need to change the “” – otherwise your server will return a 404)

Thanks for this article, it will help a lot of people.

Do you know a way to easily add links to blog posts that link to items in your aStore within your iframe? Does that make sense?

Thanks for the tip. I was stumped until you pointed out the need to create a new template for the page – after that it was easy. Up til that point I was having all kinds of nightmares about having to hack the existing templates…
