We have to have in mind that it is a simple caddy system. So IT IS EXCELENT.

We can not manage table rates per weight.

THANK YOU FOR your work!

My sincere thanks to Henk for this extension. I was looking for a very simple Shopping Cart, I didn't need fancy payment gateways, etc., I just wanted to add products to a cart, and then send the order by e-mail. This extension was perfect. Within 30 minutes of downloading it I had it installed, configured and my first 'Add to Cart' and 'Checkout' working. Brilliant!

Loading this up was easy and configuring it was incredibly smooth and clear.

It would be great if one of the choices for the way products are available to be purchased is for the customer to be able to enter a number for the quantity of each product they want. I think SimpleCaddy would work perfect for me on my photography website if customers didn't have to come back to the photo they want if they want multiples of each photo.

Otherwise, it would be exactly what I'm looking for. Could this possibly be something to be added to the next update?

Thanks.

Well, you can always update the quantity when the cart displays ... If you are working under php4, you will want to update to version 1.6 solving an issue with quantities ...

Version 1.5.5 for Joomla! 1.5.x. Excellent combination of component, module and plugin. SimpleCaddy does exactly what is claims... easy set up of a simple shopping cart feature using PayPal as the merchant account. Great for sites selling only a few products who don't need (or want) the administrative overhead of Virtue Mart (another great Joomla! e-commerce solution, by the way). Took 10 minutes to install and 45 minutes to configure. Once properly configured each product takes only a couple of minutes to enter. Product descriptions and photos are entered in a content page and simple plugin code calls the "Add to Cart" button.
A few rough bumps to final configuration but most answers can be found in the developer's forum. Not very customizable but highly recommended for simple selling needs when PayPal is your payment solution.

For selling things on a site where you do not want to have so many options to deal with, this is a fantastic way to do it. No mess, no fuss.

The developer is very helpful and extremely patient. Good stuff.

I tried SC because I needed a caddy but a simple one. SC is exactly that. It is simple in functionality and simple in use. You create some products, and then you create an article with plugin codes referring to those products - and there is a module to show what is in the cart. There is no functionality to add charges or taxes, so I suggested that as a new feature. The layout is not great but good enough. Multi-lingual support is built in but few languages are packaged. I had no problems with bugs. All in all SC is exactly what the name says and what I needed.

The new version adds all this and many more "outstanding improvements". Please download the new version and follow the instructions on the site :-)

SimpleCaddy is on the way to becoming a very useful little component. There are some bugs to work out and some features to add, but overall it does what it is meant to go. I'm using it to charge for events in my EventList descriptions.
