Shopaholic
E-Commerce plugin by LOVATA for October CMS.
Overview
Shopaholic is a scalable and highly flexible e-commerce ecosystem for October CMS. The core plugin is provided free of charge and includes the following set of features:
- Products and trade offers management.
- Product image gallery management.
- Products grouping by categories and brands.
- Multi-currency, taxes and price types management.
- Data import (product, offers, categories, brands) from a CSV file.
- Basic products filtering (by category, brand etc.) and sorting (by price, new additions etc.)
With the help of Shopaholic’s standard functions, combining them together it’s also possible to solve many other non-trivial tasks, such as displaying blocks of random products, displaying the cheapest and most expensive products, etc.
In order to cater to the growing scalability demands of a project, the ecosystem provides extra plugins to extend the basic functionality. With these plugins sellers can:
- Manage multi-language content (via RainLab.Translate).
- Sell online (via Lovata.PayPalShopaholic).
- Extend online payment options by adding additional payment providers (via Lovata.OmnipayShopaholic).
- Create custom products filters by any essence (e.g. by New additions, Discounts, In stock etc.) (via Lovata.FilterShopaholic).
- Add custom properties to a product (via Lovata.PropertiesShopaholic).
- Bind similar products to a certain one (via Lovata.RelatedProductsShopaholic).
- Manage promo activities (via Lovata.CouponsShopaholic, Lovata.DiscountsShopaholic and Lovata.CampaignsShopaholic).
- Group products for SEO reasons (via Lovata.TagsShopaholic).
- Manage complex SEO issues (via Lovata.MightySeo).
- Increase the revenue by assigning accessories to the products (via Lovata.AccessoriesShopaholic).
- Manage customers (via Lovata.Buddies or RainLab.User).
Besides you can provide a better UX for the customer with the ability to:
- See the popular products ( via Lovata.PopularityShopaholic).
- Search for the products (via Lovata.SearchShopaholic or Lovata.SphinxShopaholic).
- Compare the products (via Lovata.CompareShopaholic).
- Find the products they viewed before (via Lovata.ViewedProductsShopaholic).
- Leave and read the reviews for the products (via Lovata.ReviewsShopaholic).
- Postpone the products for the future purchases (via Lovata.WishListShopaholic).
Please note, the architecture of the plugins allows extending the existing methods, fields and other data without interfering with original source code!
The development of Shopaholic’s ecosystem is guided by the similar philosophies of October CMS and Unix like operating systems, where the main focus is to create simple microarchitecture solutions that communicate with each other through smart APIs.
One one hand, this approach allows keeping performance, security, and functionality of the code to a high standard. On the other hand, it provides a clean and smooth back-end UI/UX that isn't over-bloated with the features.
