Hello,

I am still new with using EE. I am working on building a tiny site that sells men and women cloths.  I am using the categories to display images and pricing together but it seems not work. Can anyone recommend the best or better approach.

Thank you.

Hard to say w/out knowing a lot more detail.  I might go at it- one weblog for ‘products’- each item goes in as an entry.  If there are only a couple of images max, I’d probably just put them in custom fields- say have 5 images fields and an image url in each.  (Or I might have an ‘images’ weblog, each image is an entry, a relationship field so images can be related to a given product).  I’d probably use a plugin to handle image resizing on the fly.

Categories- would be stuff like women’s shirts, men’s shirts, pants…  Totally varies depending on the type of content.

But there are likely a lot of different ways to go at this one.

Sorry Robin if I was not fully detail. Basically I am trying to build a tiny site that can handle men and women cloths. I want to be able put the cloths in categories for example; men shirts,pants hats and the same for the women. So when the person click on men or women than they will be directed to whichever section. Much like macys.com site. Would it be best to use the simple commerce which comes with EE?

Thank You

I would go at it this way:

* Men Weblog
  * Each type of cloth in a separate category
  * Each product in a separate post

* Women Weblog
  * Each type of cloth in a separate category
  * Each product in a separate post
