Default WordPress Ecommerce Plugin

Hi there everyone,

I have a client who wants to add a store to their worpress site.

I have tried a few plugins, ie wordpress e-commerce and Yak - and they both appear to be quite buggy with the newest version of wordpress (Wordpress e-commerce actually stops the administrative panel from working altogether).

Do any of you "bright sparks" out there have any suggestions for me? I would appreciate any advice you've got to give.

cheers!

ps. I will also need to hook it up to a NAB Hosted transaction page so the payment gateway options have to flexible.

I've been looking for a good e-commerce component for WordPress for YEARS.

Thus far, none exist. Not if you're still keeping "good" in your description.

I've also said, LOUDLY I might add, that one could make quite a lucrative practice of buil1ding one of these. I'd do it, but I have a newborn yelling at me (just like his mother, he yells, doesn't cry).

Can you and Patricktt please talk real soon because the lack of reliable wordpress options is really frustrating ?

We talked just yesterday!

Only it was in the pub, and we mostly talked about our wives and about horses doing it with each other.

E-Commerce Plugin comin' right up though...

horses doing it together definitely should facilitate a decent ecommerce plugin :P

allow the user to complete their order without having to create an account/login on the site. if you want to provide that sort of thing, do it automatically using a combo of email address / auto generated password.
