!!! Good News !!!

Now we have an open-source e-commerce. Great !!!!
So, where is the forum ?!? The doc... ;-)

Luca has started it for SDNStore (really free e-commerce module with really good doc and easy to set-up and skin)
Ken also have a really good job with his convertion of IBuy etc...

So I think there are a lot of coders that have been waiting for this module to release a website specially for it.

Thanks again Jan, Luca and Ken for your "really" free e-commerce module.
As e-commerce is different in each store (logistic, orders treatment, CRM...) an open-source one is a really good one for DNN.

EXCELLENT work. This is the first wholistic tutorial for the creation of a useful module. I noticed that you are thinking about extending it, that would be verty well recieved, especially if it included how to do a multimodule installation by introducing a category element which had its own interface.

Your the man Jan

Hello janendreblomquist:

If you are going to put a lot of effort into the ecommerce application, then I suggest my offering to the community. About a year ago, I put about 160 hours into a conversion of the IBuySpy Store ASP.NET Starter Kit, converting someone else's work of converting the starter kit into a DNN 1.x module into a 2.x module. In addition, I started with only a raw conversion to the module, with no administrative section, which I added. Following is the complete description from my site. It would be so great if you or someone else in the community would 'pick up the ball and run with it' so to speak, instead of reinventing the wheel. This module should relatively easily convert into a 3.x module, as it adhered very closely to the published/recommended DNN Data Access Layer.

Excerpt from my site:

I put 160+ hours into converting the IBuySpy Store to DNN 2.1.2. I have made no
moves to convert it to 3.x, although my experience with other modules is it is a
relatively trivial task for a motivated coder.

November 28, 2004. I am nearly done with all of the features I was hoping to
include in my conversion & enhancement of the IBuySpy portal store, which is available
for download to all registered users. The module is running on this site here, note
that to test the checkout, you need a valid credit card number: Use CC Type Visa,
Credit Card Number 4111111111111111 (4111 + 3 sets of 4 1's), cvs of 123, and any
date after today.

I started Izaak Kelly's IBuySpy StarterKit
Conversion for DotNetNuke 1.0, and converted it to use the DotNetNuke 2.x Data
Access Layer. This was a relatively straightforward process as the DNN 2.x DAL is
actually a lot simpler than the old school brute force data access.

I have started integrating some of the ideas from the
OZMCart IBuySpy Store/Commerce
Starter Kit Mod. It provided a great jumping off point for my
DotNetNuke IBuySpy Store Module.

Functionality completed:

Site Administration Tasks:

1) Products Admin with Image Upload: This uses a novel approach which uploads
a single image for each each product and scales the image according to the requirements
of the User Interface. Category admin similar.
2) Orders Admin: All admin functionality of the OZM cart
3) Customers Admin: Customers are DotNetNuke users. All instances of Customer
ID replaced with User ID.

User Administration Tasks:
1) Monitor Order Status
2) Billing & Shipping Information and Maintenance that can progress as part
of the checkout process and maintenance screens easily accessible through Account
Maintenance or the Preview Order Page.
3) More...

Incomplete Tasks:
1) Fix/Add Delete Product Functionality
2) Add/Fix Delete Categories
3) Add Shipping To Checkout Process
4) Add Payment Provider to Checkout Process

If interested, you can download the module from my site, once you have registered.
In order to build it you will need to add both the DNNKart project and the DNNKart.SQLDataProvider
projects to your DnnFramework Project. The SQL Script is located in the SQLDataProvider
project, replace dbo with your database owner name, and dnn_ with your provider
prefix.

If anyone is interested, once you have logged on to my site, I can add your account
to the Cart Administrators role to view the Cart Administration sub-module (for
lack of a better term).

While I think its great to see some lower priced ecommerce modules. I think this is in bad taste to post an ad in this thread trying to take away from the great thing Jan is doing.

agreed. he's doing it in other threads too: http://forums.asp.net/ShowPost.aspx?PageIndex=4&PostID=982690#982690

It is great that he's offering a low cost ecommerce solution. But by asking for donations as free solutions usually do just rubs me the wrong way ( I also don't expect anyone to care what rubs me the wrong way either. :) ). Reminds me of spam. look at his posts...he does nothing but talks about this site/modules. :(

Jan,

First, thank you for creating this Open Source module. It's this kind of "giving back" to the community that makes DNN such a great tool.

Second, can you give us a quick run-down of the current features of your module? I didn't see anything on your web site. Does it work with PayPal? Authorize.net? VeriSign PayFlow Pro?

Are you interested in my modules? Help support my efforts to create new modules for the DNN community by making a small donation.if you make a donation what is not under $10 , You will become a privileged member and download all modules PA including DnnStore .if you want get DnnStore's source code,please donate $50 at least.or else you download PA only. If you have any questions or suggestions for this module please Email to me.

this is my opinion and will state it as such: --- imho, anything that REQUIRES a donation, isn't a donation, its a payment. In fact, I see it as something not as good as a payment because when you pay for something, it is expected you will get something solid in return for your payment. with a donation, you're not neccessarily entitled to a darn thing, because you donated money..."here...here is some money to support your efforts" instead of "i give you money for a product".

I have found Peter Donker's philosophy on releasing modules quite beneficial to both the consumer and the developer....if you're wanting to sell dotnetnuke stuff. He gives away several top notch modules...free...completely open source. The he has one or two that he will sell to more of the commercial market to make his living.

these are just my thoughts. nothing more. :)

You are awesome, my man! I'm a customer by the way, and yours along with Todd Davis' are top notch. This, coming from a former MCT (independent and MS-CTEC).

Now I have a question: are you leaving it to some individuals to continue the development and management of this project, or will you be doing this?

Thanks!!!
