We welcome ideas for extensions and improvements, but we cannot
guarantee that they will be implemented. You can contribute by translating
the shop language files in multiple languages, please

Installation services:
If you consider that you got some value with this script, and want
to contribute financially to the free script development, please
make use of our card terminal. A receipt for the payment wil
be emailed to you.
We want to underline here that we offer all of our scripts as open
source, and we will never charge for anything that is distributed
in the standard shop distribution.
However, for those that want help with the installation and customization,
we offer our services for the hourly fee of $80, payable in advance,
on an estimate basis. Please contact us with your needs, we
will refine the requirements and shape up a project timeline and
cost, and you will pay us at least the half of the amount in advance,
the rest at the job completion. We tried to use the payment after
job completion for quite a while, and the results were not very
encouraging, thus we changed the policy... sorry guys :)
Please check
in the Last Updates page, for important update information!
The main idea behind this script is to offer:
- an object-oriented codebase
- easy multiple-language and multiple-shop implementation
- an easy to customize shop interface
The current version implements the following features:
- customizable menu system
- category / product pages
- upsell/cross-sell of items in different shop areas.
- UPS shipping. Support for tables of prices on regions will be
implemented on customer request
- user login and records management (billing, shipping, credit
card). A new user placing an order will be saved in the database
at checkout. The users can create, edit, and delete their records
on file.
- order form (save to file, database, and email). The order contents
is being saved in the database together with the prices charged
at purchase time. Additional to the email sent to the admin, the
same data is being saved under Logs/orders, as one file
per order, the file having as name the order number.
- search function for the main database file. The search results
are saved in the session file for each user, thus speeding up
the browsing.
- multiple product options. The prices can be defined as a fix
amount or percent. The options have their own database, with multiple-language
support.
- discounts: both on a per/item basis, and global. The prices
can be defined as fix amount or percent.
- merchant support for a multitude of online gateways: AuthorizeNet,
PayBill, Echo Inc., PCCharge, CyberCash, VeriSign, NovaInfo, IonGate,
PsiGate, IntelliPay, LinkPoint. Additional payment
gateways will be implemented on customer request, but can be developed
by anybody with a basic Perl knowledge. The payment is now processed
through the new 'EPI' interface, - read

- As of the last version, we offer support for PayPal and other
"link-class" merchants
- shop manager
- upload of image files
- order tracking
- SQL support
- Data export and import
- Smart Tags for static content delivery
The shop does NOT use cookies, although you can enable them if
you want.
Features like multiple languages and shops are already in place.
The new shop is written in a modular form, plugins and extensions
are easy to implement.
Updates
We will keep you updated as soon new modules are being finished.
