No offense but marketplace should be the least of priorities for CSC at this point in time.

Maybe so, and we would appreciate your feedback (such as what you'd rather see done sooner) in other topics of the forum. This topic is for feedback about the Marketplace, and particularly about its categories and filters. It doesn't detriment the development of CS-Cart itself in any way.

Thought its abondoned :slight_smile: no themes no new addons… also forum not so active as used to be

There are hardly enough addons and themes. Even a 3rd party addon site for any other shopping cart has more addons. So much importance on filters should be given only when there are tons of addons.

Please market your software well. Take your marketing to the next level. Have top collaborations. You have a winning product in your hands but nobody knows about it. It pains me so much seeing a great product not having enough developers.

Agree with jain1980 :)

I've used it a lot and find it's very cumbersome. Many, many, out of date add-ons, bad links, poor search engine.

Hi, Ι have also sent this at your sales team.

Glad to see that you are now providing a Market for you addons developers.
My suggestion is that you should also support license management from the store.
Ideally you would define your domains and all addons will activate for those.
This way it will be easy to request a new license activation for a development server.
Now we have to contact all the different addon providers one by one.
(You could also have a higher level of domains grouping since somebody could have
many different stores)

Hi sir,

Can you help me in below scenario where our server provider installed Marketplace performance booster and it’s still not functional.

"Varnish is active on port 80 with Apache serving the backend on port 8080. Apache is also handling SSL termination for just valuesbig.com through port 443.

I installed the Marketplace Performance Booster addon to valuesbig.com and activated it. The dashboard says that full page caching is enabled for the frontend, however reviewing the Varnish cache hit rate indicates caching is not occurring.

I’m not too sure why caching is not occurring.

The issue now is with the /etc/varnish/default.vcl file that was provided by the Marketplace Performance Booster plugin. Since we did not write this, it may be best to speak with the support of the Marketplace Performance Booster plugin regarding assistance as to why caching is not occurring"

As a multi vendor Marketplace, buyer expect to add products in cart and get a single shipping calculation.

However, currently, multi vendor Marketplace display vendor wise shipping calculations.

It would be wise to add such functionality which displays a single shipping charge to buyer.

Also it would be wise to give admin some control at backend so that he can club order of two or more vendorsz can ship together and can apply shipping charges based on total weight of products in cart.

REAL PAIN POINT

CS Cart is far behind in user experience as compared to eBay etc when we talk about creations of Variations.

For example, in CS cart, when we assign features and create Variations, then I’d we wish to change feature to another one and recreate Variantions, we can not do so because feature has been used in a feature group when we can not amend.

The only way to do so is to clone and re-assign features.

In ebay, on the other hand, it’s so simple.

You just click, check/un-check certain features/Variantions and you are able to create/re-create Variations.

While we deal with large catalogues in multi vendor Marketplace, ITS A REAL OAIN POINT

Valuesbig,

This thread isn't for CS-Cart's software but for 3rd party developer's addons, themes, etc located here. https://marketplace.cs-cart.com/

Many of the addons are so outdated that their functionality is now incorporated in the core product. If you can/will not purge them, at least flag them in some way so they can be filtered out from more updated and worthy products.

Maybe so, and we would appreciate your feedback (such as what you'd rather see done sooner) in other topics of the forum. This topic is for feedback about the Marketplace, and particularly about its categories and filters. It doesn't detriment the development of CS-Cart itself in any way.

Marketplace is important for ones who bought the license. I have bought this 7 months ago, but put it on shelf after wasting a lot of development $'s since the most critical issue of VENDOR uploading products was terrible. Vendors do not have time to go load 1 items at a time or try to create own charts etc. After much promised update, we have revived the project , was almost going to buy a competitor framework. Its still challenging to create a set preset, I wish CS cart team would simply look at how the other major sites have their "Add New Products in Bulk," Update Inventory and Prices in Bulk, Add Media easily in one preset form, Variations etc etc . all should be done in one form .. Features and Variations also should be in that same CSV or XML not in different places.

Why could they not just simply set the Add new products under PRODUCTS ? why have to go fish it from some where else?

This is with hope that CS cart will possibly involve the people who have bought the licenses and collectively we can help to make the work flow simple and easy. Even the youtube videos are confusing. Definitely not for a non technical person to use CS cart yet.

What can we do to help get this fixed? Not upset, just willing to work with CS cart team to make this simple.

Hello, has anyone tried to use the BULK import ?

Setting up the preset , is making me giddy as a site owner, how will I ever get a SELLER to fill that out ???

Has anyone at CS Cart tested this from a seller standpoint ??? To set up products?


Does anyone at CS cart even read these requests? / Comments ?

Note that this is a community forum. You should use helpdesk if you want a direct dialog. But then no one else will be aware of your conversation.

Honestly I wish I had read your comments and others before buying the license.

Do you feel a year later things are any better with the 4.12.2 ?

I am still having issues setting this up...

Ebay, Walmart, Amazon, Tundra, Etsy, and all woo commerce .... have made is so simple all on one page. No nonsense Bulk Product updates,

As admin, if I am confused not sure how we will be able to get vendors to join us ?

If you have found some answers to this please share.
