Guest Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Sure, check out how payment and shipping modules work. Or InfoBoxes. The problem is that most of what contributions do involves adding options to existing code. Not adding entirely new modules. Good luck, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimonline Posted July 10, 2003 Author Share Posted July 10, 2003 Could it be we make a few patches that could be run on the original code with a set of contrabutions ie all the extras is loaded 5 make a script that newbees can run that would do the coversion. and i am shure that there are other sets that could be put into a patch script 2 work with or without another block of patches what i hate when i am adding a contrabution to a shop is the tought that there are thousands of people doing the same thing woulld it not be nicer to have contrabutions added the old way and when they have proved themselves a patch script be riten 4 them Just an idea Quote Why reinvent the wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zimonline Posted July 10, 2003 Author Share Posted July 10, 2003 Any one else :?: Next i propose we do it on a country baced system ie: Patches 1) am in the UK so the patch should include an SQL set to sort out the tax and shipping there are a few more i know about and few i am shure i dont 2)then you have a set of defaut mods ie Git Vouchers Discount cops....etc which are not country based. 3)any extra mods that are only useful for one type of website of another if anyone is intrested plase leave your ideas here of what mods should be used and in which cat 1,2 or 3 any one intrested in working on the projrct i will setup a test bed we can work on Quote Why reinvent the wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashlyn Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I've found that most contributions are relatively easy to work, and I've done carts for UK and US based businesses (I'm in Australia), but I can't work that Wishlist out for the life of me! Life would be too easy if everything was that simple.. :wink: Quote ------------------------------------------------------- I used to be insane, but now I'm just nuts ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimonline Posted July 10, 2003 Author Share Posted July 10, 2003 wizardsandwars i am not propsing doing it my self but more as a group we need people to come up with a list of mods that should be in a patch we nedd some devs, doc writers, and beta tests who what to help nothing like this should b undertaken lightly if it is going to work properly. the guys who are working on this my end are looking at the pros an cons the are some of the best devs out there but they are new to osc and e-commerce most are no the dev team of freebsd Quote Why reinvent the wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimonline Posted July 10, 2003 Author Share Posted July 10, 2003 most are no the dev team of freebsd should read on the dev team Quote Why reinvent the wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizardsandwars Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Oh, I see. Well, that's disappointing. Anyway, if you are interested in the direction that OSC as a group is taking, then you should check out the workboard, http://www.oscommerce.com/community/workboard and the weekly summary reports http://www.oscommerce.com/community/weekly That will give you an idea of what the current dev team has on its plate.
