Fix Multiple Price Modifier Selection: Are you sure? Price modifiers will be changed elsewhere

I mean, someone to be able to select more than one value, from 1 price modifier.

B2B abilities: Make this more clear

I'll PM you about this, with a link.

Value more than 10 for Quantity: This is controlled by the general settings and the product stock.

Hmm correct! Note: 999 maximum value.

[datahell]

Maximum value of 999 I think it is already very high. If you need to sell stuff that is in hundreds or even thousands of pieces, (f.e. nails, screws, paper clips), it is bad practice to sell them one by one. The best option is to sell them in groups, of 100 pieces for example, so the quantity in the basket will stay low.

Example:
"Each package contains 200 paper clips".
If the client select 5 as quantity, then he will finally get 5 X 200 = 1000 paper clips.

[rentasite]

It depends on the product. If you sell favors (boubounieres) it's inevitable the basket's quantity not to stay low. It's something you cannot sell per group (100, 200).

Anyway, i set it to 999 and i think it's ok.

I'm back...

1) Updates Area: Ιt would be useful if we can have an option in the "Updates" area, so we can mark/check the files we have downloaded (i wrote about this, months ago). No need to be automatic.

2) B2B: I've been reading these days.... The main idea for an eShop to support B2B transaction (beyond B2C) is to provide different prices for particular users or user groups. So this feature "Shopper groups (different prices/discount/VAT per shopper group)" supports B2B transactions. Right? 

3) eShop backup: Abillity to backup only the eShop (?)

4) And something ClopyPasted    sorry for the Greek... but read it as it is.

Απενεργοποίηση της επιλογής «Προσθήκη στο καλάθι» σε περίπτωση εξαντλήσεως του stock και αντικατάσταση αυτής με επιλογή «Επικοινωνήστε με τα κατάστημα» ή δυνατότητα για εκδήλωση ενδιαφέροντος & αυτοματοποιημένης ενημέρωσης μετά την εμφάνιση stock προιόντος.

1). IOS Eshop v2.x updates system will work as IOS Reservations 3.0, so I guess it is fine.
2). Then IOS Eshop is B2B ready!
3). I will see what can be done with an import/export utility. Taking a backup of IOS Eshop is easy, Elxis already gets backups. The most helpful feature would be to be able to import products from different shopping cart into IOS Eshop. I will check if this can be done without messing up IOS Eshop database...
4). OK, this also can be easily implemented.

Ability to make the shop as a listing/catalog manager by disabling [orders] and [prices]
Currently I have 2 customers that they want to show their products , but don't want to sell them online

This will be very useful ...
==============================
and a method for deliver and check out the products via the post service (the post will get the product and give them to the customer , the customer give the money to the post , then post will send the money to our bank account) , This is very popular method for shops in Iran (post buy)

Thank you

your customers are right.. they don't want a  shop...

why you to trying to build one for them?

elxis sections and categories  are  more than enough to just list products.

[datahell]

Many shopping carts have the option to work as product catalogues but I agree with ks-net, what the point of not selling the products? If you don't want to sell your products then you don't need a shopping cart. You need a directory script, a gallery, a blog, a "something else", but not a shopping cart.

[Farhad Sakhaei]

Yes, I know all of them ...
But the problem is for adding products , categories , for users
The contents are more difficult for them
Also they need to offer comparison to the users ... special effect to showing products , like e-shop pictures ... products features ...
latest products , and e-shop modules

[rentasite]

How about been able to show some eShop products, in an Elxis frontend site. But through content items! Something like Easy Gallery.

Basically i want to publish these products in the main content of the site. Module is not a solution, that's why i said "through content items"

[datahell]

OK

[rentasite]

idea from customer: Different eShop skin depending on Product category.

[datahell]

This can be done easily. I have talked in the past about "multi-template" templates on a conversation regarding templates for mobile devices. The basic principle is the same. Here is an example:

Your template's index.php contents:

Code: (php) [Select]

<?php 
$tpl = &#39;default_skin&#39;;
if (($option == &#39;com_eshop&#39;) && ($task == &#39;category&#39;)) {
    switch (intval(mosGetParam($_REQUEST, &#39;cid&#39;, 0))) {
        case 1: $tpl = &#39;skin_for_category1&#39;; break;
        case 2: case 4: case 12: $tpl = &#39;skin_for_categories_2_4_12&#39;; break;
        case 19: $tpl = &#39;skin_for_category19&#39;; break;
        default: break;
    }
}

include($tpl.&#39;.php&#39;);
?>
Of course if you just want to load different css and the layout keeps the same you dont have to create different template sets, you just load the css.
