Single Product Site

[Blueac]

I have a requirement to sell a single product and thus do not require the catalog at all. All I need is for clients to select the quantity and then go through the checkout process.

 

I have looked at the docs and forums and cannot find how to set the system up for this.

 

I am happy to have a static page with a drop down box for quantity. since the item is shipped for the listed price I have no need for taxes or shipping fees.

 

How do I set the system up to handle my requirement.

 

I can remove all the categories, search, whats new, currencies etc etc from the templates but will that accomplish what I need?

 

If I create the item in the catalog, how do I pass the quantity to the cart from my static page?

 

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Using osCommerce for one product is total overkill. All you need is an html site with a PayPal 'Buy Now' button.

Whilst I understand it is overkill I would still like to have the functionality that it offers. The gateway module is there the reports are there the checkout process is neat and I would have an order history......besides it is what I would like to do that should be the main reason :)

Use the 'Products Attributes' function then, and use multiples of the product as the attributes. That will give you your product with a drop-down box where people can select the quantity they need.
