Re: [joomla] Virtuemart -- anyone else having SERIOUS problems with it?!

I have never used Virtuemart, but the problem smells like a residual cookie. It might only be occurring because you logged in and out as different users, maybe as the admin, or perhaps you were testing it in ways that the end user does not. I'm not advocating the acceptance of security problems. Just saying that the problem might not be as bad as it seems. Something as serious as that would probably make it to the front page of the VM forums.

What's with all the high ratings and great reviews for VM on the extensions 
directory?  I can't be the only one having problems with it.

Have I not been saying how bad VM is for the past year? :-P

Thanks for the info, Jeff. 
It's unacceptable to have this type of problem in an
ecommerce application -- you could lose your business over
it!

Unfortunately Virtuemart DOES have serious issues. For one
project in particular we ended up spending a ton of hours to
fix it.
We've been working with Magento. It's a great
product IF (noticed that big IF!) you will basically use the
features as-is and just need to reskin it. If you need to do some reengineering...be prepared for a 
steep learning curve and lots of complexity.

I'd consider taking this route:

The "new" Virtuemart (1.1.x) seems to have

some very SERIOUS problems -- such as I go to checkout, type
in my bill-to/ship-to info, click "Continue" and
the next page in the checkout process shows me someone
else's account info!

That's pretty serious.  One person checks out and

someone else gets the bill/receipt.

I'm looking at IXXO Cart which is expensive but I

would expect that it works.

Anyone have any experience or heard anything about

IXXO Cart or the problems with Virtuemart?
