Mage Enabler

Installation

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.
