The best option for the server side?

Question

CMS

Hello Toaster)
I want to ask advice from experienced people.
I have almost made a website (something like an online store) using html + css3 + js.
I wrote a website and learned everything along the way.
Now it will be necessary to take up the functionality, the server part.
I am advised to install and learn wordpress in the same way.
For some reason, I want to learn and do this whole thing in php.
I don't know php or wordpress.
The site is planned to be multilingual and multicurrency, connecting statistics and analytics, synchronization with other sites, fast loading, convenient order forms (dispensing discounts and prices while filling out the form), registration via social networks, payment via pay pal and various cards, convenient admin panel, etc.
Aa ... and in the background of the site header there should be a small video + all sorts of pop-ups during registration and so on.
Please advise on what is the best way to do this and how it will be better, what is better to learn in my situation?
Can you choose something else?
And how long can it be done, respectively in php and in wordpress?
Thank you very much in advance!)

Answer 1

You cannot compare a language and a CMS written in that language. I don’t know how long it will take to learn PHP and write your own store, but it’s definitely more than installing a ready-made CMS, configuring it, finishing it up to the desired functionality.
If you choose which one, I would take OpenCart.

Answer 2

1. If you write from scratch, maybe in 2 years you will write.
2. WP is a blog, for what you want, wp is not the best option.
3. Look at ready-made emails. stores like PrestaShop.

Answer 3

On WordPress, you can make 30% of your Wishlist, but at least they will work.
On PHP, you will spend a couple of years on the most basic functionality
. Besides WordPress, there are other CMS.

Answer 4

If you need to do it quickly - only ready-made CMS. With all my love for WordPress, in this case, take a specialized one like OpenCart, PrestaShop and the like. There are good solutions for WordPress, the same WooCommerce, but in order to complete something there, you need to have a good knowledge of both PHP and the WP + WC architecture. Why extra complexity?
And there is another option. If you are not a programmer, but a manager / owner of this store, then use the SaaS platform, there are a lot of them on the market. After a year or two of store operation, you may switch to your own decision, perhaps not.

Answer 5

Is wordpress not php?

Answer 6

If everything depends on a specific time frame, take any popular CMS for the store (opencart, prestashop, magento). learn as you search for answers and solutions.
To take a blog (my personal opinion) engine and sculpt a store from it without knowing any server language, somehow not a cake and generally darkness.
