This new joomla shopping cart is now in production Beta and I have been testing it over the last year or so.

Pros: Good looking, robust (still improving) shopping cart that can be customised to do what you need. Good documentation online, covering Installation Manual, Basic Configuration, Tutorials, Advanced Tutorials and Troubleshooting

Cons: Like all customisable carts it is fairly complicated, and takes a little time and effort to get it purring along.

Support: The online documentation mentioned above.
I have found that google searches of my problem either finds me the forum post or tutorial page with the solution, or I find that others have identified the issue and a fix is on the way. I have not had to pay for support, but would be happy to pay for the experts time if I had to implement a particularly tricky solution for a client.

The story:

I went searching for a new shopping cart solution for joomla after the older VM software could not meet the security rigour of Akeeba's Admin Tools!

I have participated in the development of Tienda, (you too can join in at http://projects.dioscouri.com) where I supported a bug report for the Australian tax situation, and it was picked up as a feature requests, and implemented in the very next release!

This is a major piece of software offered as a community version - thank you to the developers for improving the joomlaverse shopping experience for the web site builders and the shoppers!

Issuu is a great way to display your publications online and this dear little plugin takes the pain away.

Just grab its embed code, jump into your article, flip to the code - and paste!

Done

So easy - I love it

Thank you Yan Hong, the community salutes you

Just what we need to use CiviCRM Events as one would expect in a Joomla set up - works as described - no problems.

Please could we have the ability to list the date of the event in the Module, along with its name?

Thanks for creating this module - your effort is much appreciated.

This calendar extension is reliable and flexible, and an upgrade to the professional level is well worth while to get the very good looking extra templates.

Support is fast and courteous.

Very highly recommended to the joomla community.
