I am looking to move my site to ZC. One of the features I need is to allow my customers to be able to Save a Permanent Cart so they always have a list of commonly purchased items when they login. I've searched the archives, but can not tell if the Permanent Cart is removed after an order is placed.
Does anyone have anymore information on this? Is it possible to save permanent shopping lists (for supermarkets for example), so that, when someone places regular orders, he doesn't have to add all the items to his cart every time? I've looked in downloads but couldn't find anything, but i'm not even sure what's the best search terms for this
Hey Dr. Byte... thanks, i have, and personally, i think it works perfectly. but my client would like to see this taken to the next step, whereby the client can create permanent lists (up to five), and name them, for example, "essentials", "dog stuf", "for the kids"... that way, it would add only the "for the dog" items to the cart if that's what the client wanted...
It's not a customer-driven permanent cart, but rather a store-owner-driven grouping of related items.
To build the infrastructure for customer-driven customized frequently-purchased-bundled-items, you'll need to write custom code to collect, name, store, retrieve, and use the choices.
I'm actually looking for the opposite of a permanent cart. Each item in our shop is unique, so there is only one of each. If a customer puts something in their cart then logs out, another customer can buy it. Then the first customer logs back in, wondering what happened to the thing in their cart. I want to be able to clear a customer's cart when they log out. Possible?
