[Resolved] Please help or assist me with integration other plugins

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem: I want to determine if this plugin Design Tailor is compatible with Toolset, or if I can use its API with Toolset.

Solution: No, this plugin does not use WordPress's database or API in any way, so Toolset will not be able to interact with its data.

Hi, it appears this plugin is not well integrated with WordPress yet, based on the link here: hidden link?

Wordpress version is coming soon, Click here to subscribe

This means that a large amount of custom code will be required to integrate with a WordPress site. My suggestion is do not use this jQuery plugin unless you are a skilled PHP developer. Instead, I would use something designed to work with WordPress, like WooCommerce. You will find a lot of examples here on the site, as well as other forum posts, about integration with WooCommerce.

Many thanks for your reply.
I forgot to tell you that I need minimum integration with wordpress (our project is - greeting cards and ther are not for sale), and the functionality of the woocommerce is completely unnecessary, we need simple functions such as add a picture, for example create cred forms and add or choose elements from some category, befor created postcard save not only to the computer disk, but also save as a post in the general category after the user has created ecard.
The developers claim that no one can work with their "plug-in" as a separate stand-alone module. But I understand that until I buy it I do not recognize it :-), I was more interested in the principal question - is it possible to interact with the API and Toolset.
If you still have thoughts about this, i will be glad to hear.
I close the ticket in any case and will try to find a solution.
Thank you again.

I forgot to tell you that I need minimum integration with wordpress
This does not change my advice. Do not use this plugin with WordPress or Toolset. Toolset requires a maximum level of integration with WordPress. You will not be able to use Toolset with this plugin in any meaningful way. Nothing will work for your site, and we will not be able to help you here in the forums.

- is it possible to interact with the API and Toolset
It sounds like you still want to explore the use of this plugin with Toolset, despite my strong objections. Do not use this plugin if you want to use Toolset plugins. It doesn't matter how robust their API is - Toolset is not designed to work with their APIs or any databases other than those managed by WordPress. None of the admin functionality will work. Search will not work. Custom post types will not work. Basically nothing will work. I cannot be any more clear:
Do not use this plugin with Toolset. It will not work.
