Hi Gilles,

Thanks you very much for your reply.

So I basically just need the catalog and products module. I'll be using an external "cart" to process the orders, shipping, tax, payment, discounts, etc.  The external cart takes a query string of itemid and quantity, along with client id.  I think the "Add to Cart" click can be rewritten to redirect to the cart.aspx page with proper itemid. The catalog and product tables will be populated from an xml feed consumed by by a process running on DNN Scheduler.  This will keep products in sync.  What this does is leverages the content management of DNN for a web site/store and the cart processing of our web sales system.

So basically, it comes down to a catalog, and products (summaries and details).. everything else is handled by an external cart.   I can probably just reverse engineer the Store module and add a variants table of some kind.  What do you think?

Thanks for your insight,

Jay

Hi Jay,

First, you do not have to reverse anything, because the source code is included in the Store_Source package. Please read this post for instructions to install properly the source version.

In your case you could add a new token instead to rewrite the [ADDTOCARTIMG]. You can create your own token like [ADDTOEXTCART] and do what you want inside. To create a new token, look at the method processToken in the file ProductDetail.ascx.cs inside the DotNetNuke.Store.WebControls project. Simply insert a new case "ADDTOEXTCART" in the switch statement.

Concerning the sync, please read this official document about the DNN scheduling provider.

Hi Gilles,

Thanks for the reply.  A new token sounds like the right approach.   And how about the admin - I wouldn't want to hide configuration for taxes, etc.  I suppose that can be commented out in the Setttings control for the Admin module.

Thanks again,

Jay

Hi Jay,

You'r welcome! Of course you can hide some parts of the Store Admin module. But you have to define some default settings in the code to avoid errors. As an example, you have to define at least one shipping rate with a range from 0 to 9999999 with a cost of 0. Because it's a requirement to have at least one shipping price defined in the module. If you choose this solution, I will guide you for this changes. It's simple to do.

Hi Gilles,

Thanks alot, that sounds great!  I'll be uninstalling the store module, and reinstalling the source code version for the store today. 

I'll be looking at how tokens are working, and how to add a new token for new Add To External Cart feature, as well as how to add support for variants (maybe as new Token type too?). 

Thanks,

Jay
