Orchard CMS Virto e-commerce module


I developed previous web-applications with Orchard CMS and I enjoyed working with it. Now I started to create an E-commerce application and found out that Orchard has some modules for this so installed the Virto-commerce module but I'm starting to notice the lack of functionalities.

For example I can not figure out (lack of documentation) how to place attribute filters on de products page. Is it even possible?

Can the module be used to create a fully functional webshop like http://demo.virtocommerce.com/electronics/camcorders or is it very limited with just basic functionally?


Solution

  • The module for CMS Orchard is really simple and was developed only for demo-purposes - just to show that it is possible to use VirtoCommerce API with Orchard. So, for now this module has very limited functionality - only placing widgets on corresponding pages - and can not be used for creating a real-world e-commerce web site.

    Actually we are open for your suggestions about integration VirtoCommerce and CMS Orchard.
