How to Connect OpenCart

How to Connect OpenCart

FLUF Connect supports OpenCart 4.1.0.4, your default store, and simple products with tracked stock. You need a public HTTPS storefront and an eligible FLUF plan. Products with options, variants, discounts or specials are excluded.

  1. Back up your OpenCart store and download the extension.
  2. In OpenCart, open Extensions → Installer, upload the ZIP and click Install.
  3. Open Extensions → Extensions → Modules. Install FLUF Connect, then click Edit.
  4. Enable the connection. Choose tax and shipping defaults and confirm them before allowing new products to publish.
  5. Generate a connection key and copy it. Keep it private.
  6. Open FLUF Channels, select OpenCart, and enter your store URL and key.
  7. Import a few products and test your setup before expanding to your whole catalogue.

Prices are base prices before OpenCart tax, in your store's default currency. Check destination prices before crosslisting. Set individual tax and delivery details in OpenCart when products differ from your defaults.

Zero stock disables a product; positive stock updates enable it again. Synchronisation is periodic, not instant. Orders created before connecting do not trigger stock updates. Manage refunds, cancellations, fulfilment and image changes in OpenCart. Cancellations do not automatically restock other channels.

To disconnect, remove the connection in FLUF and use Disconnect and revoke key in the OpenCart module. Rotating the key requires reconnecting FLUF with the new key. Uninstalling preserves your products and photos.

Read the full compatibility, installation and troubleshooting guide. For help, contact [email protected] with your store URL, OpenCart version and the error shown. Never send your connection key.
