Thread

Hi,

I wonder if someone could advise if any modules/plugins could provide the following functionality.

1. I’m looking at building a website which will have an ecommerce section e.g. People just wanted to add a product + quantity to their bag (pricing isn’t really neccesary) - that order then get’s sent to someone to fulfil/get back to them with an estimate - bit like a quote request…

2. Members area per member - a restricted area for that member so the EE admin can push/list products that customer might be interested in (from the ecommerce store)...this bespoke list is only viewable to this member (No other members can see this members page).

Tricky isn’t it….
I thought about using an ecommerce module e.g. BrilliantRetail/Cartthrob etc - bespoke members products…tricky…

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello 11Media,

Thank you for posting your question.

You mentioned cartThrobe and BrilliantRetail which are two great options for e-commerce.

A members area is going to be more difficult. You could create a group for each user and then restrict based on groups, but remember that a user can only belong to one group. So they would belong to their own group. You could then use Conditionals to to determine the group and present data that way.

If you would like I can also move this thread to the Community Help Forum to see if any other members have input or ideas.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help.

Cheers,
