DRAFT ONLY!

Web Store

• Log onto ADempiere with Admin Role
• Go to the Web Store window and create New Record

Help on the Web Store setup is available from Adempiere Help

For the purpose of our exercise, we will modify the following:

• URL – valid FQDN i.e. http://www.yourdomain.com
• Web Context – context root to web store i.e. /newstore
• Stylesheet – aesthetics of the web store can be changed by modifying the specified file in Cascade Style Sheet (CSS) format
• Price List – the range of products available to the webstore is restricted by the Price List and whether or not the product is
• Web Parameter 1 – Site Logo i.e. Adempiere120x60.gif
• Web Parameter 2 – heading on content page
• Web Parameter 3 – HTML code to customize the vertical side bar
• Web Parameter 4/5/6 - HTML code for footers

• Click on the Record Info button on the right bottom of the Web Store window. You will need the W_Store_ID to later to complete the setup

Application Server

• Shutdown the Application Server

WebStore Template

The WebStore template is stored under the archive file $ADEMPIERE_HOME/lib/adempiereWebStore.war. The purpose of this exercise is to duplicate this WAR file for the new webstore and making customization to the newly created WAR file from the deployment directory.

• Now rename the directory adempiere.ear so it will not be overwritten during the setup
• Next, we will run silent setup to create WAR file for the New Web Store
• Rename the newly created EAR directory from ./adempiere.ear to ./adempiereNEWSTOR.ear
• Modify .\adempiereNEWSTORE\META-INF\application.xml to point to the new web context
• Modify .\ adempiereNEWSTORE.ear\adempiereWebStore.war\WEB-INF\web.xml to refer to the New Web Store ID# 1000000*Run Adempiere Server*Standard Adempiere Web Store*New Web Store
