The OpenCart portion of your website manages all product content and shopping cart information. This includes all product information, prices, shipping, taxes, payment processor, and sales reports. The products are linked to the MyStyle designer through OpenCart. This entire section should be edited with caution, as there are many fields that have hidden, secondary purposes to link the products to the customization application.
