Looking for help and suggestions.
I’d like to have a little store section on my site. What I’m thinking is to have the store made by typing out an article that would be published in the store section. The images would load via a plugin. The basic layout would be similar to this page: http://www.cginsomniac.com/store and I’d have the “buy button” (linking to an outside store system) placed using fields. I’d just paste the code/link to the card into a field. I know this is possible..just not sure how to set this all up.
The process for me to place a new item into the store would be as follow:
1. Write a new article that would be set to the store section. The article would publish only in the store section. I’d place an image into the advanced section and the image would be placed using the wet_thumb plugin.
2. I’d then paste the appropriate link code into the appropriate field.
3. A portion of the article text would be placed into the excerpt.
The browser would see the store page with a list of the various products. And the excerpt showing and a more details button AND a buy button. Details when clicked would go to a single article version of the store where just the product was displayed. The buy would go to the store where the purchase could be made.
I know all this should be possible. Just not sure how to go about setting up a seperate article and the whole fields thing.

I don’t quite understand your trouble. Use a custom field, no ?
