The Prestashop integration is done a php plugin that you upload to your Prestashop server. As part of the setup wizard, you can use the built in FTP option to install the plugin or manually upload the kit. The kit is available in the setup wizard, and, after setup, by using the Edit option on the Web Store. You can give Descartes ShipRush either a secure (https) or non-secure (http) url to your system. We strongly recommend that you provide a secure HTTPS:// url. The php plugin for Prestashop can be customized to retrieve additional information from your Prestashop system. This can be used to pull attributes that does not pull out of the box, or to modify data as it flows to Descartes ShipRush. This is technical and requires a programmer. The Descartes ShipRush support team does not support customizing the plugin.
