Hi Christopher and Stephen, Thanks for your feedback. @ Christopher: I'll give Tienda a look over. Do you have an example site I could look at utilizing it? @ Stephen: Have you used or heard any feedback about the OpenCart ports like JooCart or JHShop? Cheers! Herb

If you need more complex CMS needs, like a forum, blog, you should check out tienda Chris On Jun 30, 2011, at 6:11 PM, Herbert M.

OpenCart is easy to use and stable. I have used it for a couple sites - collectible plates and a vintage book store, but I don't think it can handle 14,000 items, but it might as you can make product categories. The problem with OpenCart is it has limited CMS. You can create pages, but content management is not nearly as good as Joomla or WordPress. If you have the time, I would try Magento. I have played around with it, and it is an enterprise-grade e-commerce system (think Amazon-level), but it is complicated and there is a learning curve. On Thu, Jun 30, 2011 at 6:11 PM, Herbert M.
