This plugin links your Magento installation and WordPress by instantiating the Magento's Mage object. It is done by using PHP require_once of the file Mage.php supplied by Magento. By doing this, the administrator will be able to pull and push information to/from the Magento. This requires a working Magento setup prior to installation of this plugin. At the moment, Mage object can be used to non-admin pages such as themes.
Is this plugin for you?
If you know how to program using PHP with basic knowledge of object oriented programming and familiar with Magento, then yes, this plugin is for you. The plugin, once activated, gives you a raw access to the Mage object which you can use to access Magento methods within WordPress and do stuff like single login, pull templates from Magento, display categories, products and checkout from your blog and many more. It's basically extending the ecommerce function of Magento to your WordPress blog.
This plugin is not for you if:
- You want to display your WordPress blog within your Magento shop (Go to Magento Connect instead)
- You don't know how to program using PHP
- You have no idea what Magento is
Please do take some time to rate the plugin as well as fill in the information needed in the compatibility section. It would be great if you can share your site (only if you're allowed to do so) which uses this plugin but it is optional though.
