UPDATE: I forgot to mention that the CVS version (link below) is the first version of mambo-phpShop that can be installed AND used on all Mambo versions greater than Mambo 4.5 1.0.2 (Mambo 4.5 AND 4.5.1)!
You might have noticed that a lot of new features have brought into the CVS version of mambo-phpShop. Currently I'm working on the Coupon Discount Code from Erich Vinson. Already built in for the next version is the capability to set up "Free Shipping from $x.xx.." for your Store.
Product FileManager: It's sad that I've got no replies on that. Seems that I'm still nearly alone in development. So please don't complain about bugs.
Please don't ask when the version 1.2 RC2 will be out. When nobody helps with debugging the development version there will be no more release this year.

"I am am a principle member of an
ecommerce/web development company in Colorado Springs. We recently were
approached by a very large manufacturing & inventing corporation in
Hong Kong to bring their already well-known products direct to the US
consumer via online sales.
We searched for the best shopping cart solution for this project,
and initially purchased a license for a commercial product ($1900 US)
because it SEEMED to be the best option out there. Shortly after
aquiring the software, we realized that it was vastly inadequate for
our purposes. We, of course, were limited to their pre-installed
options, could not create a custom payment gateway (as they promised we
could), and on and on. We had to find a solution FAST that was both
scalable, highly customizable, and very stable. We had used
mambo-phpshop in the past for very small sites, so we thought "Why
not!?"
We evaluated Mambo - hands down the best CMS option available, and
VERY stable. We then evaluated mambo-phpshop - hands down the best
shopping system for Mambo currently available, and it was just what we
needed.
After much testing, re-testing, adjusting, and testing, we are PROUD to announce the launch of http://www.BuyInnovation.com - using mambo-phpshop.
The is the OFFICIAL online outlet for products from the following brand names:
- SeaDoo (SeaScooter personal water propellers)
- Hummer (accessories for the SUV popular in the USA)
- Angler Tools (sonar-based fishing accessories)
- Electronic Bartender (handheld bartending computer)
New products will be continually added to the site as the months progress.
We believe this is a big win for the mambo-phpshop and the open
source community!! This proves that open source is a viable (and often
superior) option for even large corporations and large e-commerce
sites. Thank you again for making this possible!!
