ahh ok thanks Phil, omg I swear you answered me before I posted LOL

I had a dream last night that I was in a Coffee Cup office talking to a female employee. I laid a pile of print-outs on her desk saying something to the effect that these features are absolutely required for the pro shopping cart. I'm trying to recall just what I wanted, likely search, shipping discounts and sub-directories. Goes to show that I need to get a life.

PayPal automatically send out a receipt to the buyer. PayPal also sends out an email to the seller advising them of the buyers purchase, the delivery address and their email.

Reality is, that many people abandon shopping carts due to long drawn out checkout processes and requests for personal information. From a customer's perspective they just want to click the buy button and pay for their goods with the payment provider.

Shopping Cart Creator currently has no ability to capture customer information. To implement that, the developers would have to develop two separate systems for those that wanted customer data captured and those that didn't want to burden their customers with filling in forms. That's when it all starts to get very complicated.

As Will just mentioned, email notifications are handled by the merchant. There is no need for our software to send out any sort of e-mail because PayPal, Google Checkout etc already do that. For us to have a feature like that, we would need to capture all the customer information before it is delivered to the merchant and that would be a HUGE task to accomplish.

I am pretty sure that this sort of functionality will never be incorporated in the software or at least not in the foreseeable future.

I Scott,
I Purchased shopping cart creator when it first came out, and ditched it soon after so I don't know if what I am going to suggest has already been resolved in later releases or any where else for that matter.
The biggest problem I encountered was the limit of 50 items in a category without creating a sub category etc.
The reason I purchased the software was for one particular customer who rejected the implementation using SCC because they had up to 120+ items that needed to be in one category, and wouldn't accept sub categories.
I am revisiting SCC now because of the new Designer software but it's pointless me buying that if the base SCC can't have a higher limit per category.
I have only used your forums today for the first time so I appologise if this is now irrelavant.
I use HTML Editor all the time and never had a problem with it, and consider it the best editor in the world.

Regards
Roger

Interestingly enough, whilst I was researching something else on the net this morning, I came across an article from a web research study, that stated many people won't actually fill in forms unless the site uses secure socket layers. In layman's terms, that's a web page sporting the padlock symbol. Getting a SSL certificate for your site would be yet another expense and an additional layer of complexity.

I'd be happy just to have more options in the multiple shipping; we are limited to three, and it just isn't enough. Is there no way we can tell it to add another option, as often as we need? Priddy pleeeez?? (Sorry if this has been asked, I'm SOOOOO busy right now and I tried doing a search but didn't see it in there.)

Desperate for more shipping options! Thanks!

Hi,
One for the pro version.
Is it possible to display links or thumbnails of other products in the same category as the main product being viewed?

Cheers,
Baz.

Sorry, but that is not an option yet.
