Prestashop Product creation in one page without tabs - php

I need to code a very simple Product creation system in Prestashop, using a single page without tabs.
Does anyone already achieved such a thing?
Would it be better to use the PHP Product class, a Prestashop Webservice, or anything else?
My google-fu must be rusted, because I can't find any SIMPLE product creation example with Prestashop around here...
Thank you in advance, and have a nice day.
Note: I already asked the same question on the official Prestashop forum, but you know, this forum is like the old U.S.S.R from the communist era:
"Tell us what you want, we'll teach you how to live without it!"

Drupal Commerce - Load drupal variations images instead of a select box

I am not a beginner with Drupal, but I am a beginner with Drupal Commerce. I have used Ubercart since this project.
Actually, If I create a product display, and then a few variations under this product, Drupal Commerce automatically creates select box with titles of the other variations. This is quite useful for almost all the e-shops, but not for this one. I need to replace select box with titles with just images, on which customer will be able to click on, and select variation type just by image.
I think that there is almost all the functionality in drupal commerce kickstart which I am using right now. But I do not know how to achieve the result. I have already tried editing product view, but was not able to make it working. I have also searched through core modules of drupal commerce in code, because I think that there should be just an array function with result of titles, but did not found something like this yet. I have searched whole internet to search for solution but did not found anything useful.
In some threads peoples use to solve similar problems with for example colors, to give the ability for customers to see the color squares instead of color select box, this is achieved by module, which some of devs written. Maybe I can edit this module?
Also, I have never ever created a module, I am a bit lost in drupal codes, but tried it before.
Here are the attachments for better vision:

Any advice will be greatly appreciated; I just need to be pointed to the right direction,
You can achieve this feature, the same way than Commerce Kickstart v2 does: http://demo.commerceguys.com/ck/tops/drupal-commerce-hoodie - note the color selector at the right middle.
This is done using Commerce fancy attributes module which allows you to render color or image selectors that come from a taxonomy:
This module provides a "Rendered term" attribute mode, that shows the rendered term instead of a radio button (degrades to a normal radio button when JS is off) on the add to cart form.
You've got a video demo of this module with a step by step to configure in http://vimeo.com/44308580
Thank you for an advice, but I still had not been able to make it working with fancy attributes module. I used another way using taxonomy and a few views, which done almost the same.
But I still think, It is achievable by Fancy Attributes.
Thank you again
I have created a module for this case: https://www.drupal.org/project/commerce_options_as_images
I use it on my projects.

edit magento navigation without coding

I just recently started working with a Magento site, and so far I'm really not liking it. I need to remove a couple links from the main navigation, but I can't seem to find the option for it. I've googled it numerous times, and all I see are examples for coding the navigation. My question is, can you edit the site navigation like you can with say wordpress? Seeing how it's a cms I'd imagine the user should be able to make changes to the navigation using some type of interface, and without having to pull the files from the server and edit them.
Also just out of curiosity, for anyone experienced with Magento would you say it's a good choice for a cms? I've heard of it before, but haven't seen many sites that use it.
No!, so you have three options here.
Learn how to extend the navigation with the 100's of tutorials out there, it is really not that hard, assuming you have a theme you just have to edit app/design/frontend/[theme]/default/template/page/html/topmenu.phtml
Get an extension to do it for you.
Hire a developer to do it for you, we create a static block with installer for the html which make it slightly more user friendly to update in the future.
Stackoverflow is a bad place to ask questions like this, it is aimed at programmers and doing such a procedure is rudimentary stuff, I really hope you are a client trying to be cheap rather than someone who claims they can run this site.
Edit: The cms features are ok but you need to be able to code to set them all up so the end user can make the changes with WYSIWYG.
If you don't want to code for navigation then you can do below things
1) Create category and then Display Settings=>Display Mode=>static block only and Display Settings=>CMS Block=>static block name. In static block u can include in page url or custom page
2)You need to hire developer
If you're using Magento and have an integrated WordPress blog, it's possible to design a completely custom menu in the WordPress Admin using the menu builder. You have complete control over what menu items you want and the hierarchy of each item.
To get this to work, you need to integrate your WordPress blog using WordPress Integration in full integration mode. Your Magento template also has to be using the default Topmenu block.

How to add vertical tabs (like the product page) to a custom magento admin form

There are many tutorials to adding extra tabs to the product page but I am struggling to find information on how I can create tabs on a new form from scratch. I have looked at the following resources but the information presented doesn't seem to be very clear or my magento isn't good enough to understand it yet:
http://www.excellencemagentoblog.com/module-development-series-magento-admin-module-part3
how to create multiple tab in magento custom module?
I am trying to emulate the tab system that runs vertically down the left side of the product section but on a custom form.
Are there any references out there on how this should be done (similar to the official magento one explaining how to create an admin module)?
p.s I haven't posted code as anything I have is directly from the tutorials.
I ended up working through the excellencemagentoblog version and have successfully got tabs working. The examples given aren't exactly straight forward unless you understand the magento structure really well but the information within the article is adequate enough to work through.

Creating list from queries (Shopping cart like)

I need your help to get to the right direction on tackling this problem. I have a list of products from different vendors stored in the database. I wanted to be able to search through it and be able to add specific products and create a "Parts Order List". I was thinking of it like a shopping cart. The user should be able to browse/search through the product list and add certain products to the "cart" and then later view and print it. I'm stuck on what language to use. I'm familiar with PHP but from reading online this is mostly possible using CGI. What do you guys think? Any other Ideas? (Hope I make sense.)
Thanks in advance!!
If you're familiar with PHP why not use PHP then? Is there some reason you want to abandon what you know already to try something else?
EDIT
This beginner php tutorial on how to build a cart will teach you all you need to know about creating a similar system for your needs using sessions: http://v3.thewatchmakerproject.com/journal/276/building-a-simple-php-shopping-cart

php product browser

I was wondering if anyone knows of a good script to manage a catalog of products. Just need basic stuff, like being able to browse by category and or tags and search. Without many extras, as I'd like to have it working inside a CMS.
softpedia has a few scripts, but I'm also considering creating it from scratch. Ideal would be something in between that allows a bit of customization and control of layout, but takes care of the backend. So adding editing and managing items should be simple.
any ideas?
--- edit ---
has anyone worked with http://www.oscommerce.com and can shed some light?
CubeCart is quite simplistic and easy to use, there's also osCommerce and Magento if your looking for a more advanced ecommerce system.
ZenCart is a popular solution, and free. Of course any (good) product listing app is going to be a shopping cart.
virtuemart may work out for you as well.. you can add it on top of joomla .. that way you would have a CMS to create and change the custom pages as well.. the other solutions are good too but they are more cart oriented.
