Ecommerce Website Re-making or Re-creation from CMS

Hello,

In general, Nicepage creates eCommerce websites and can export such a website as a static HTML website. However, it does not provide the same features as corresponding e-commerce components for CMS, for example, product variations, etc. Therefore it depends on what e-commerce features you need. Also, please note that nicepage does not export PHP projects or work with the database. It creates static HTML websites.
Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Thanks for such a prompt response!

Product variation, generally, is part of HTML [product] page, and PHP developer can assign MySQL table rightly later.

PHP/MySQL is separate independent activity (not expected within NicePage)

What is expected (if possible)...that after Ecommerce Store Page[s] are downloaded... can that page be taken in NicePage as-is without requiring to recreate same-design-page (to save time on fresh page design in NicePage) as HTML and CSS only? Please advise.

I've been following Nicepage in their efforts to introduce eCommerce capabilities into their product. And as Olivia has already pointed out, Nicepage right now helps you generate templates that are intended to work with the ecommerce plugins of CMS systems such as WordPress and Joomla.

To properly implement ecommerce outside of a CMS, you need a tightly integrated PHP/MySQL package and this is not part of the capabilities of the current program. Back in the days of Artisteer (a Nicepage predecessor), there was a third-party add-on that could convert the HTML code to PHP. To my knowledge, there is no such product for Nicepage.

With respect to your question about being able to isolate the generated HTML ecommerce elements to somehow enhance those with PHP/SQL functionality, you would need to ensure that you have also captured any relevant externally referenced CSS elements. But beyond that, with no database functionality, the CART functionality of Nicepage must have support from a CMS at the moment, so even if you integrated a PHP/SQL package into the individual pages, you would still need to find a solution for selling more than a single product per transaction.

As much as I love Nicepage, and have been using it for years, when it comes to ecommerce STANDALONE products, you're better off to find and use well-supported standalone ecommerce products installable from Softaculous, Fantastico or other similar source.
