Fix Missing Images Your products exist but don't have images yet: 1. Open: 2. Click **Edit** on each product 3. Upload a **Main Image** 4. Click **Save** Images will be stored in `Admin/wwwroot/uploads/products/` ### 3.

``` --- ## ๐Ÿงช Testing ### Test API Connection Open: `file:///E:/Documents/Website%20Projects/Sky_Art_Shop/test-api.html` This page will: - โœ… Test backend connection - โœ… Load products/projects/blog from API - โœ… Show image URLs and verify they load - โœ… Display JSON responses for debugging ### Test Your Static Site After integration: 1. Open `shop.html` in browser 2. Products should render with images from API 3. Open DevTools Console (F12) 4. Should see: `"Loaded products: X"` --- ## ๐Ÿ“Š How It Works ``` โ”Œโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ” โ”‚ Static HTML Files โ”‚ โ”‚ (shop.html, etc.) โ”‚ โ”‚ โ”‚ โ”‚ Uses JavaScript to โ”‚ โ”‚ fetch data โ†“ โ”‚ โ””โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”˜ โ†“ โ”Œโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ” โ”‚ Public REST API โ”‚ โ”‚ /api/products โ”‚ โ”‚ /api/projects โ”‚ โ”‚ /api/blog โ”‚ โ”‚ โ”‚ โ”‚ Returns JSON โ†“ โ”‚ โ””โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”˜ โ†“ โ”Œโ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ” โ”‚ MongoDB Database โ”‚ โ”‚ SkyArtShopCMS โ”‚ โ”‚ โ”‚ โ”‚ Collections: โ”‚ โ”‚ - Products โ”‚ โ”‚ - Projects โ”‚ โ”‚ - BlogPosts โ”‚ โ”‚ - Pages โ”‚ โ””โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”˜ ``` **Admin edits content** โ†’ **MongoDB updates** โ†’ **Static site fetches new data** โ†’ **Users see changes** --- ## ๐Ÿ“‹ API Endpoints | Endpoint | Method | Description | |----------|--------|-------------| | `/api/products` | GET | All products | | `/api/products/{id}` | GET | Single product | | `/api/projects` | GET | Portfolio projects | | `/api/projects/{id}` | GET | Single project | | `/api/blog` | GET | Blog posts | | `/api/blog/{id}` | GET | Single post | | `/api/pages/{slug}` | GET | Page by slug (e.g., "about") | | `/api/categories` | GET | All categories | | `/api/settings` | GET | Site settings | | `/uploads/products/*` | GET | Product images | | `/uploads/projects/*` | GET | Project images | | `/uploads/blog/*` | GET | Blog images | --- ## ๐ŸŽจ Customization ### Change API URL Edit `js/api-integration.js`: ```javascript const API_BASE = 'https://your-domain.com'; // Change from localhost ``` ### Customize Card Design Edit `css/api-styles.css` to match your site's look: - Colors, fonts, spacing - Grid layouts (columns, gaps) - Hover effects ### Custom Rendering Edit `js/api-integration.js` functions like `loadProducts()` to change HTML structure: ```javascript return `
