This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.

Mage Enabler

विवरण

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.

स्थापना

  1. Fix the function collision problem between Magento and WordPress by doing the following:

    Copy the file functions.php from your Magento core folder which can be found in:

        /magento/app/code/core/Mage/Core/functions.php 
    

    and paste it in the directory below (create the directory if necessary) and open the file for editing.

        /magento/app/code/local/Mage/Core/functions.php
    

    Locate the function __() or go to line 93. The function is similar to the one below:

        function __() 
        { 
            return Mage::app()->getTranslator()->translate(func_get_args()); 
        }
    

    replace it with this:

        if (!function_exists('__')) {
            function __()
            {
            return Mage::app()->getTranslator()->translate(func_get_args());
            }
        }
    

    Save the file and close it.

  2. Upload mage-enabler folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory or use the Add New -> Upload option in the Administration panel.
  3. If you use FTP to upload the plugin, activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress. If you use the Add New -> Upload option, just click the Activate link provided after the plugin’s installation. A menu will be added under Settings tab labeled as Mage Enabler.
  4. Go to the Mage Enabler admin page in WordPress and supply the absolute URL of the file Mage.php from Magento
  5. Click Save button. One of the messages below will shows upon saving the settings:
    • Invalid URL – This means your file Mage.php can’t be found using the URL you entered.
    • File is accessible! – You have supplied a valid URL.
    • Mage object not found! – Check your cookie settings. Your browser should be configured to accept cookies.

प्रश्नोत्तर

How to use this plugin?

Check my blog for an example here

What Magento methods can I use?

Check the Magento documentation

My website appears blank after I turn on the plugin

It means there’s an error in your code. Set your PHP error_reporting to E_ALL and refresh the page so you can see what’s causing the error.

I already set my PHP error reporting to display all errors in .htaccess but still my page remains blank

Try placing the error_reporting(E_ALL) without quotes at the top of the actual file you’re working on then reload the page.

I get ‘Cannot send session cookie – headers already sent by…’ error

Try placing your Mage::getSingleton(...) call at the top of your PHP file to prevent this error from taking place.

I’m getting the ‘The plugin does not have a valid header’ error

Check the screenshots area on how to setup the folder structure properly

I’m getting a ‘Decoding failed: Syntax error’ or ‘An error occurred while saving the attribute set’

You might wanna take a look at what John LeBlanc did here.
Thanks John 🙂
