Totseats

Post by cowtan »

Just made this site live yesterday - http://www.totseat.com

It uses cmsms 1.9.4.2 and additional modules include -

CGExtensions 1.25.4
CGSimpleSmarty 1.4.8
Products 2.12.1
RSS2HTML 1.2.4
Twitter 1.2.1 (which for reasons best known to itself, isn't working at the moment)
Foxycart 0.0.1 (which I wrote myself and does *very* basic integration of the Foxycart system with cmsms)

Well thought out website. Who can resist smiling kids? Also, what a great product. Is this available in the US?

Thanks for the generous comments. If you want to buy a totseat in the US you can either buy it direct from the site and it will be shipped over or to you or from one the US stockists (see http://www.totseat.com/english/stockists/).

cheers,

I knew that name rang some bells... we bought one last year! We take the seat everywhere with us.

btw, so for what you say, Foxycart does not integrate with CMSMS unless one writes some code?
Your answer would save me some research. ;-)

The module I created was definitely an extra. You can use all the shopping cart stuff on foxycart very straightforwardly without having to write any code, just dropping the various bits of foxycart into the appropriate places in the your templates should work.

The module I wrote was for creating a few tables in cmsms that record information about all the purchases made. This works by using the Foxycart XML feed which triggers a PHP script. I did this so as to make it easy for the folk at Totseat to print invoices and packing slips in the format that suited them. It was the first cmsms module I've created and I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to create the module once I'd got my head round the concepts involved. If I had time etc etc I would publish it but as it stands it's very much a one-off for the specific site.

Thanks Cowtan,

I just heard about Foxycart not long ago and it is good to know what it can be done with it. I do some voluntary web work and doubt I'll ever need more than the standards offered but it is interesting to look into capabilities of software.

All the best.
