Hiya,
currently my website is active on https://www.circuitpics.nl
My webshop is active on https://www.circuitpics.nl/webshop
What I would like is to integrate the webshop into the main website. Maybe into a page wich opens the webshop engine etc?
Is this possible and how can I achieve this? Hope you can help me out on this one.
regards,
rene

You could integrate the webshop by simply providing a link to it in your main site likeyou already have.
You could create a WP page that introduces your web shop (describes what you have, any instructions, etc.) then include a button or link that goes to your current webshop.
I don't think there's any easy way to embed your albums into WordPress pages. Maybe an iframe (look for WP plugins), but I don't know that the cart would still function correctly and I'm pretty sure Matt would not recommend doing that. Plus I bet it would take a lot of work, seeing how many albums you have.
If you want the styling between your main site and your webshop to be the same, you could use the TTG Backlight WordPress add-on to create your theme or adjust your current Backlight design to better match your existing WP theme.
Using Backlight alone, it would be difficult to get the same design on your current site by using the Backlight WordPress theme on it's own. But you could use a page builder to better re-create what you already have and still preserve the basic site design.
Beaver Builder works great with a Backlight WP theme: https://www.wpbeaverbuilder.com/
