Wishlist

[DivaVocals]

Really want (need) to install this with a new v1.5.1 build but it doesn't appear to be compatible/working with Zen-Cart v1.5.1. My list of add-ons to install is vast and I don't want to risk installing this without some certainty that it will work.

So, if someone has or gets this working with v1.5.1, please post (to let me know) and I will proceed.

Cheers

ps. Or if anyone knows of an alternative that provides similar functionality and works with 1.5.1, please advise. So far I'm only aware of 'save for later', which is what I will be going with in the meantime (not quite the functionality that I sought though).

Just wanted to post a suggestion here.. Instead of waiting for someone to confirm if this works with v1.5.1, you can (should) setup a test/dev store to do your work.. If you backup EVERYTHING (DB & files) in your test/dev site before you proceed with your installation, and all hell breaks loose, then you can EASILY roll your test/dev store back to the state it was before installing this module..

Hi Diva. Yeah, I realize this. I've gone with 'Save For Later' for now, which provides similar functionality and is very good. Once I've got the new build running with the current list of add-ons, I should be in a position to install another 'test' environment and do more testing, etc. for further, ongoing development... of what I hope will soon be a totally new 'live' site.

I didn't want to bother exploring this at the moment given the comments in the thread regarding v1.5.1 compatibility and my existing development load. ;-) I also hope to be in a better position to get-it-to-work with v1.5.1 soon... after this er... current Zen-cart refresher course.

Hi!

I read the wishlist description and I'm still looking for clarification. As the store owner, can I see which items are most-wished-for?
I don't keep a lot of items in stock and I'd like to know which items are in highest demand.

Thanks!

I have no earthly idea why someone would use this mod when Save for Later is available. But I'm biased. :)

Because you can email and share your wishlists with people which can't be done with SFL.

Save for Later has been downloaded almost 4,000 times and this is the first time I have heard that request.

Argument By Selective Observation?

I am not sure what you are saying? You have never heard of someone emailing or sharing a wishlist? We get them all of the time. I am not sure why you would try to compare a wishlist with SFL? Both modules have their benefits but have different functions.

I am using a better version of wishlist from yellow1912/rubikintegration and it works really well and you can see reports about products that are the most common wishlist items as well as entire wishlist contents, which SFL doesn't have at this time. SFL is great for the individual user wanting to keep tabs on what they want to eventually purchase and all viewable in their carts. Wishlists are common on many major sites and people are used to using them, sharing for gift ideas etc, as well as for their own personal listing of items they eventually want to purchase but without cluttering a cart page. You can put notes/comments with each item, create separate lists for separate reasons. I actually think it's more flexible than SFL, but offer both since everyone has their own preferences and we want to cater to everyone.
