This week in LFS (29)
This are the LFS news for week 29.
New Shop:
In the last couple of weeks we migrated (Plone - to LFS. Demmelhuber is a (inofficially) top-500 shop in germany and has >1000 unique visits per day. This give LFS a lot of requirements and use cases from a power user (e.g. interfaces to ERP, ebay, amazon, price comparing portals a powerful management interface, etc.).
Products: Display and find only active products. Variants: Variants can now be sorted within the product.
Some improvements concerning data inheritance from the base product. Criteria:
We added some more criteria: combined length and girth, valid shipping/payment methods (which opens some powerful possibilities to make shipping/payment methods dependent from each other) and some others.
Addresses/Localization:
Michael created a branch for the dynamic display of certain address fields, like state and country. This is (could be) a start for some kind of localization (addresses, currencies, etc.). We need some more insights and discussions. So if you are interested don't hesitate to get in touch.
Carts:
Added first simple views to manage carts (this needs more improvements).
Bugfixes / Cleanups: A lot of template cleanups.
Several bugfixes concerning to variants.
Several bugfixes concerning to the checkout page. SWFUpload:
I still don't get SWFUpload with lighttpd or Apache/WSGI to work (frankly, I don't really tried it very hard). Anyway, with Apache/FastCGI it's working here.
And that's all for this week. Next week there will be more about LFS.
