Here's sort of a twisted response but I hope it isn't utterly out of place
Well, I meant my comment more to be read like "don't judge a book by its cover" ... the "cover" here being the CataLook documentation.
I'm not an ecommerce expert, but I have read comments by folks with years of ecommerce experience which are very impressive in terms of crediting CataLook as one of the best, if not the best, they've used in any platform. And I was able to get it working with no experience - because it really does what it is supposed to. Even though I scratched my head a few times and said, "Huh?"
I do that a lot. It's more about me and the fact that I'm a bit slow on the uptake once in a while than about the software.
There are lots of "new kids" on the block in terms of DNN modules and hopefully that's going to be a good thing.
But there are some more mature and long-standing modules which don't perhaps engage the community on these forums in a way that makes them seem accessible. And that's a shame, because there is some real power there. CataLook is an example. Enterprise forms is another. With Enterprise forms, I can populate a dropdownlist by binding to values retrieved from an Oracle database. And at each work flow step, I can execute SQL stored procedures - in the DNN database, in a different SQL database, in an Oracle database, in MS Access. When wanting to use DNN for a population that has lots of business data stored in Oracle - all of a sudden, you can do impressive things without having to do lots of integration and on-going synchronization.
I know, this isn't about Enteprise forms, it's about ecommerce ... but there are some modules out there that aren't discussed often or known as well as they should be, yet are incredible resources for a DNN portal. CataLook deserves some respect and acclaim, and not to be defined only by the competition.
All that said - welcome, AliCommerce, to the growing number of DNN modules that are here to be better and become the best and best-known.
