sudnawi Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 I'm working on a storefront that is affiliated to many "vendors"; is there a way to allow a cutomer on my site to pull products from various vendors on the same cart? vendors are seamless to the shopper, he will not leave my storefront, but practically he'll be purchasing stuff from different suppliers. input is appreciated.
Guest Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 First and foremost, you need access to the vendor's MySQL databases, or the ability to put their inventory into your MySQL database. osCommerce is completely driven off of MySQL and a certain table structure within. The thing you are trying to do is no easy task requiring lots of modifications to osCommerce. I can imagine that you will need to create a vendors table to track a list of vendors and a vendor id column added into the products table if not in many other places.
