That is not professional at all! Do you think if Windows 95 was bug free we would have ever bought 98? or Millennium Edition? They tried making it almost bug free with XP and now people won't leave it... so they brought the bugs back in Vista, preemptively for Win 7 sales. That's "professional" development. Intentional bugs so that people will buy the next version that fixes those bugs and adds new ones.

I'd say OpenCart is very "professional" . tehehehehehehe (rib... rib...)

* He's doing this for free (in the hopes for donations). He owes nothing to anyone.
* This is a community, so let's act like a community and show respect to each other. Respect begets respect.
* Instead of wasting everyone's time posting insults and impatience, how about using that time to help develop something that can be contributed to the community, like a module. Don't know PHP? Help with the Wiki? To boring? Try making some templates. Don't know HTML? Then please stop pushing and be patient.

I don't like banning people or blocking posts, because I do believe in freedom of speech. But as a moderator, it is a responsibility to the community as a whole to keep the forum safe and friendly for all. Insults and bad language are not safe or friendly. Don't like it? Then leave. No one is asking you to participate. But if you are going to participate, then you are welcome as long as you be respectful, intelligent and contribute to the overall good of the project. It's as simple as that.

So unless this topic gets back on track (though I don't know if there's really anything more to discuss), I will lock this post. Let's keep OpenCart the best product and community on the web.

Thanks for everyone's cooperation and support. Have a nice day .

I was hoping it would work... guess I was wrong. As I suspected, there's nothing intelligent left to discuss in this topic. Sorry to all the respectful and courteous members of this community, but I guess the banter just won't stop.

the thing that has slowed me down is the multi-shop. I'm going to have to remove the url class. I'm not sure I want to do this because people might complain if there mods don't work. I should never have used a url class in the first place.

pone of the other features is perfect IE6 compatibility. I found out the current version is runnng in qurks mode and was causing loads of problems when trying to match up the look and feel.

All payments to a single account? Payments to different accounts? Share inventory? Stand alone inventory? Share buyer data, or not? Etc.

Hardly any carts offer it, even for a price. Those that do are $300 or more.

I would not hold up everything else for this, even though I will be the first to admit I want it. I'd rather have the base script relatively bug-free and beyond beta, then wait for multi-shop.

Just my thinking, but I'd say many others would rather have a working cart without multi-shop at this point.

exactly, I'm concerned that the multi-shop could introduce many new bugs and make the clean code messy again.
