Dual Cart Amazon Associates

Hi Everyone,

I am in the process of converting opencart into a dual cart amazon / normal cart, so far I have done..

I have modified a theme to work with changes to the core files and database. and template This new site detects if you enable Amazon in the admin, if you do it disables a lot of the standard cart features from the admin and client side of things.

For every product you have an amazon enable switch (yes / no) you also have the ASIN. The end result is now a cart that can work with both amazon and non amazon products, take a sneak peek before I go live. http://www.crazypetfood.com

You will see a more information button that takes you to the product view, then a buy from amazon button for the enables products. At the moment only frozen meats are buy now / add to cart (normal cart)

There are still a few bits to sort out, I thought I would keep you posted. I would love to one day add this to vqmod, but so far it is problematic with regard to the DB changes.

More soon

Tweaking and making the site more seo friendly, also optimising a lot of the files.

Going to soon start adding more to the admin side of things and what the user see's.

Amazon locale (.com/ .co.uk / .whatever amazon does)
Amazon ID

I would like to figure out how to get live price feeds, from what I know it is via an XML feed that needs to be parsed and then the relevant bits taken out.

If I try to implement this it would mean a bit of processing via a cron job or similar. for now I have not figured out how to get this to work, so prices are still "guide Prices"

The other thing I want to try an figure out is how to add this to a commercial VQmod one day, the database additions are problematic, maybe someone who know how to do this can let me know?
