Hello,

This is my first look at the store module (as always - well done to the team making this possible!) - and I am trying to decide if it is overkill for what I need:

I am considering moving to a sales model on Smart-Thinker.com. Currently it uses the subscription model so the core code makes a call to PayPal and uses the IPN to add a user to the role they subscribed to. This works great as there is very little involvement from me between sales.

In the sales model - my requirements are relatively simple: I have 10 or so "products" modules - that can be downloaded. A user should be able to add these products to a cart and Checkout. Upon successful purchasing they are then added to certain roles and I choose what they can download based on these roles. Everything is handled by PayPal wrt to credit cards and sales details, but it gives the impression of a webstore.

Is this possible as is with the beta version of the store module? Obviously it's never advisable to use beta software on live sites, but it the latest version in a stable enough state to use or are there known show-stopper bugs? Are there any examples of stores using the core store?

Thanks for your answers...

This version handles everything to the point of checkout and PayPal, however it does not handle role assignment in this current version.  Two enhancements that are coming down the road is "Instant Downloads" (you buy and then can instantly download the product) and role subscriptions (you can buy something that adds you to a specified role).  But these features are not in the product yet.

Thanks Robert. I will need to wait until that version is released then - in the meantime I may use a hacked-up PayPal solution.

I wont ask you how far away that version is  ;)
