  Hi,

  I'm in the process of quoting a few ecommerce packages/websites and currently 
looking at opencart (for a free and non supported solution) and JShop for a 
more pro supported version. Does anyone have any packages that they recommend?

  I'm not requiring bar codes or EPOS integration so need to keep it simple.

  thanks.

Hi Hedley,

I've recently used Prestashop - http://www.prestashop.com/ - and i am very
satisfied with it!!!

PHP E-commerce framework - its an Open source solution with really
supportive community..give it a try!

Web Standards compliant XHTML - CSS 

Many frameworks (*wouldnt like to name them*;) still make use of
*table*tags to style Content.. ..so do your research before
you choose one
;)

Best Regards

Dennis Karampinis

I have heard many positive things about Prestashop, curious to know if  
Prestashop works with JS switches off, or the JS codes are progressive  
enhancement? Unlike Magento which is not and near impossible to get  
rid off.

Magento is great but has a high learning curve and not a lot of template
options, free or commercial, at this point. If you need a very full featured
cart, I'd use it anyway.

If you need a basic cart use Zencart. If you only have a couple of items I'd
use Paypal buttons.

Magento isn't easy but it is probably most flexible from UI perspective 
compared to zencart (table based HTML) and jshop (also table based HTML), so 
theoretically it is easier to knock up templates for Magento than other two.

I used both zencart and jshop and they are a pain to work with visually 
speaking.

RE: [WSG] Online shop package recommendations please.

2009-10-17 Thread Raul Ferrer
I wanted to point out that Zencart is NOT a table based HTML. Yes, there’s a
lot of old templates that use tables, but there’s lot of templates that are
fully css driven, and obviously if you create your own (as I did) you’re not
restricted at all. 

The learning curve (to have it beautiful and shiny) is a bit steep, but
shouldn’t take to much effort to set up a simple webshop.

 

Cheers

 

Raul
