Using power cms & powerstore2 at the same time

Using power cms & powerstore2 at the same time

Okay, so I have powerstore setup and ready for a client. Except I have to add in the feature so she can update the support, about us, terms pages etc. via cms. So like I've done on many other sites, I added in PowerCMS (completely seperate from powerstore) just like I would for any other site. And I can't for the life of me figure why it's giving me this error message.

"Table 'store.contents' doesn't exist"

I don't know why. Like I said, I setup powerstore and got that all working and then just followed the instructions for powerCMS to add in the feature for my client to have the ability to edit a few of the none cart pages on the site. What am I doing wrong? Do I need to place this:

<?php include "cms/Connections/localhost.php"; ?>

<?php include "cms/WA_CMS/WA_CMS.php"; ?>

somewhere else for the CMS? When I remove that line of code the error goes a way. How would I fix this so I can add in the feature?

Your store database does not include the PowerCMS Tables. You need to run the admin\database\CMS.sql file on the store database to create the tables needed by PowerCMS.

So putting the powerCMS database into the store database will allow this to work? If I import it like you are saying will it ruin any of the information in the store database currently? And do I leave the global configs for the CMS the same or change the powerCMS database connections to the store then? Is there anything else I'd need to do? Thank you.

For the error you are getting, it is already looking in the store database.

The tables used by PowerCMS are not the same as the ones used by PowerStore, you can import the PowerCMS tables into power store without overwriting anything.
