ProductCart Mods, Add-Ons & Customizations

ProductCart is an excellent shopping cart application out of the box, but even its amazing feature list doesn't go far enough for some merchants.

WMS is a leading developer of mods, add-ons and customizations for ProductCart.

"Mods" are simple tweaks to source code. "Add-Ons" require a database upgrade and Control Panel tools.

Store Navigation Manager plug-in

For ProductCart v4.0+ only

This ad-on is in beta.

Deploy your shopping cart site quicker and have complete on-going control over your store navigation with the Store Navigation Manager!

Product Cart version 4 introduced a three column default layout, where category navigation and "Useful Links" go in the 1st column, main contents go in the second column, and other options can be put in the 3rd column such as "Browse by Price", "Recently Viewed", "Top Sellers", etc.

What's more, they introduced Dreamweaver's "SPRY" navigation in addition to their prior navigation tree (with the +/- options to expand or contract category navigation).

Contemporary design standards call for a simple unordered list for the markup and CSS of everything from the look of the navigation to effects like fly-out menu navigation.

This add-on gives merchants the option to control all of the content on column one and column two of their site, all directly through the control panel.

Using the control panel interface, merchant can select form any of the following options to generate their navigation and other content for columns one and two:

We'll be adding Best Sellers, New arrivals and Specials soon.

What's more, this add-on enables you to break out content pages into different sections while while defining a header for each section AND enables you to create "Content Pages" as links to other pages or URLs.

For example, say you want a "Customer Service" section. You can define that as a header and chose what content pages go under that header. But say you want to have a link to contact.asp show in that list of "content pages? This add-on will enable you to do that and handle many similar scenarios.

This add-on uses the same concept as all other ProductCart dynamically generated menus in that it requires a "Generate Navigation " prompt in the control panel, and then all navigation is stored as static content while customers are shopping your site.

Fly-out Mini Cart add-on

This ad-on is done and just waiting for packaging and release.

Product Cart's default "Small Shopping Cart" is a nice feature that every shopping cart should at least take advantage of. However, more contemporary shopping online stores are using a more advanced "mini cart" display -- stores like Gap.com for example -- which show just what the customer added to cart along with  what is currently in their cart, complete with subtotal and possible up-sell messages

"Compulsive Buy Rack" add-on

We're still working on a better name for this one, but the idea is to enable  merchants to create a "compulsive buy rack" such as one sees in grocery stores, etc. to up-sell customers based upon criteria a merchant selects such as "clearance items", products below a certain price point, best sellers, etc.

FREE ProductCart Mods!
