Help on automated regular orders and integration

[avilandia]

Hi all,

 

I've been working on changing my osc store and am now starting to get more confortable with modding the store and understanding how to change things around.

I'm looking at several contribs which will come useful to be installed over the next couple days but can't seem to find one for a particular feature I need.

 

I would need clients to be able to make up regular orders, meaning that they could make up their first order and have it repeated weekly, monthly, or every 2 days etc...

My programming skills are far from enough to do this, but I can't seem to find any contrib to use? So far I've been instructing clients to just add this as a comment and managing these data separately, however it's beggining to be too much to keep track off without failing. The idea would be for the client to set up the order, and chose the re-order period. Then simply receive this order as a norma one for processing when the date comes? Too complicated?

 

Another issue is login integration, I'm running a cms powered site (exponent), osc store and forum (phpbb). Altough it's not a major issue there are now 3 separate logins required for full acess. CMS runs on one Mysql DB and osc and phpbb on the same separate mysqlDB. Would running all on the same mysqlserver/DB make this possible? Or not?

I know there is a phpbb integration contrib but could not get this one to work.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,
