The Events systems is a must have – allowing customers to have multiple wishlists that will bring all their friends to your shop and buy from you!
The Events system allows customers to create multiple events to which they can add products.
They can add products with options and specify a quantity.
With the Events System extension your customers can:
- Create and manage multiple Gift Registries / Wishlists;
- Add Products to events with the options and a desired quantity;
- Keep track of the products that have been purchased;
- Share the events with potential gift buyers through email and social shares;
- Search for Events;
- Make Events public or private (Private Events have a ‘Request access’ form.
- Add products from the Event or from the shops product page;
To fully test I suggest that you create an account with a real email address.
If you want to see the customers account management side then you can log in with the following details:
User: admin [at] vger [dot] co [dot] uk
Pass: pass
Support included (within reason).
Uses vQmod to make a few core changes otherwise all new files.
One file has to have a couple of minor manual edits as vQmod can't do it.
I’ll try and list all the important things, I may miss a few points but here goes:
Public Side:
- Customers can view a list of Events;
- Events have a start and end date;
- Events list show events as ‘Awaiting’, ‘In Progress’ and ‘Finished’;
- Only ‘Enabled’ events show up in the public Events list;
- Customers can search Events based on Title, Event Owners Name and Email;
- Click on the ‘View Event’ link to see the products;
- Customers can add product to their cart from the Events View page;
- Customers can select how many of the product they wish to purchase;
- Quantity selection is done by drop down – upto a maximum of the quantity required.
- The quantity of purchased products is recorded on the Event;
- Once Quantity Desired = Products Purchased, ‘Add to Cart’ button is Removed;
- Event is updated with the product purchased quantity after payment has been made. This happens even if the customer logs out and comes back later to finish the purchase (assuming they made an account first);
- Private Events can’t be viewed unless you have the correct link – instead it shows a ‘Request Access’ form to email the Event owner;
- Disabled Events can’t be viewed and don't show up in the events list;
- Customers can create and manage multiple events;
- Customers can add products to their Event from the Event Edit page or the catalog Product Page;
- Customers can add ‘Invitees’ name and email address and then send invitation emails;
- Customers can directly share their event link through Facebook or Twitter;
- Customers can add products to their Event from the Event Edit page or from the product page using the ‘Add to Event’ link which will show up once logged in;
- Customers can edit the quantity of products that they want – even if some have already be bought;
- Customers can delete Events
