shopping cart suggestion current bCentral Cart being discontinued

Post by dhathy »

A client currently is using a MS bCentral shopping cart for his site (www.momslinenchest.com).  I am in the middle of a redesign for him(www.drhathy.com/cmsmadesimple) using CMSMS.  Microsoft is shutting down their shopping cart program at the end of April and he is looking for a replacement.

I know that there currently is no shopping cart module for cmsms.  I am looking for just a shopping cart that will integrate easily into the new cmsms site design.  The one nice thing about the Microsoft cart was that all I needed to do was put a link on an "add to cart" button that pointed to the MS hosted shopping cart/product.  Super easy

Any suggestions??????

TIA

In the next few months, I'll be attempting to include shopping cart software from Ecommerce Templates (ecommercetemplates.com/phphelp/ecommplus/about.asp) into a CMS MS site.

I'll post a follow up to my project somewhere in the forum and link to it from here.

Sorry for the long delay and thank you all for responding.  I looked at each of the possible solutions but none really fit the bill for what my client was looking for.  He ended up going with a "paid for solution" which may or may not allow me to use CMS Made Simple.  He is getting  the software this week some time.  I will post back my thoughts, opinions etc., after I have used it for a while.

Thank you again,

Dan

Has anyone yet implemented Lodewijk Bogaards' port of OsCommerce? I've installed it but haven't done anything with it yet. It is available at http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/oscommercee/

What about http://www.mals-e.com/ or http://www.romancart.com/

You just use "buy it now" buttons on your site and the cart is hosted on their servers.
