Hello Nick
Thanks a lot. It is an excellent and very impressive solution!
I will try to customize it a bit and try to run it also with OFBiz
11.04.01 (I don't know it it is possible).
regards, Mark

The latest release of our OFBiz / BigFish eCommerce platform is
available.
For more details please visit http://bigfish.salmonllc.com, the "Demo"
section will provide a good overview of both an eCommerce
implementation and the BigFish Admin Module.
Of particular note, in this release:
* Support for Mobile (small devices)
o a very cool implementation!
o implemented for the Fashion House demo
(http://bigfish.salmonllc.com:8082/online/shop/main)
o whenever the browser screen size gets to 450 pixels or less then
the "small device CSS" will kick-in (so called "responsive")
o try resizing your browser down to 450 pixels wide, try from a
phone, it works!
o a little rough at the edges, we will be fine tuning this over
the coming month or so
* Feeds, Services and Scheduled Jobs
o a significant amount of work has been done in this area
o many services and scheduled jobs built around clients who want a
BigFish eCommerce front-end solution but also need to continue
using their existing ERP solution for fulfillment
o scheduled jobs to extract New Customers, New Orders and import
into the back-end ERP
o scheduled jobs to accept new files from clients for Product
Updates, Order Status Updates and Store Locator updates
* Smart Variant Feature Awareness
o Ability to understand a primary feature, associate to a specific
variant and act accordingly
o examples from the Fashion House demo:
+ search for "pink", if there is a pink colored variant it
will be shown (try "white", you'll see the same product but
the white variant will be displayed)
+ facets: click on a "red" facet filter, all products with a
red variant will show the red version
+ sticky: if the list page is showing a specific variant (blue
color) then the detail page will show the same
o all configurable, not just for "color" although this would seem
the natural usage given that this feature will naturally lead to
variant specific imagery
* Help System in Admin Module
o The beginnings of a BigFish Admin Module help system
o We have help for the functional pages
o But our focus will continue to be in the "How To" and "Guides"
areas
o Basically approach is that the Admin screens are pretty self
explanatory, but how to do something from a business point of
view is more difficult to understand because several aspects of
the Admin Module may be involved
o Check out the first How-To and General-Guides, click on "Help"
in any Admin Module instance
* Performance / Scalability
o Many changes to take advantage of OFBiz caching
o Everything cached in the eComm implementation, nothing cached in
the Admin Module
o We couldn't find any useful documentation for this ... if anyone
is interested we have a help document available
And many smaller tweaks, fixes and enhancements As always, questions
and comments are welcome.
Best Regards,
Nick Rosser
