Wijnboutique e-commerce site
Finally online, but still in its testing phase is http://www.wijnboutique.nl
Dutch e-commerce wine site, based on TXP. Due to some limitations I had to parse TXP in in some external files to get it all working the way I wanted.
Site is tested for IE and Firefox, comments are appreciated (but please be gentle..).
Oh, site is in Dutch and only meant for the Dutch market….

Lovely! I know everyone else is going to throw this out so I may as well start it off =)
What cart system did you integrate? How? Simple php includes?
Looks great!

Re: Wijnboutique e-commerce site
Thanks! The frontpage is still an ugly clutter, but we are very happy with the presentation of the wines. we dubbed it ‘wineporn’.
The basic script I used is from http://www.7-shop.de
I replaced the admin with textpattern and cleaned up the code to fit my needs; originally it was a heavy clutter of php and html, I changed all that.
I first tried to make txp forms with the code for the shop, but then I found out that the small shopping cart (appearing in the right column after you have put something in your cart and go on in the site) just wouldn’t work. So I used separate PHP files for the functions I needed, with TXP parsed in so I still could use forms and stuff.
Because the minimum amount ordered is 6 bottles / there is a standard discount / needed automatic refresh after changing amount of bottles etcetera I had to rewrite the code to suit my needs.
Payment methods are limited now, but planning is to offer I-Deal (Dutch payment option, uses online banking from several banks).
PHPList newsletter is also incorporated in the site, also by parsing TXP in.
I am working on a colophon for the necessary thanks to all plug-ins and bits of code I used for the site.

Re: Wijnboutique e-commerce site
The icons used in the site are indeed famfamfam silk icons and I like ´m a lot too.
Another fine source to mention in the up and coming colophon….
Edit: Thanks for the link to Postmaster. I saw the previous version but then it wasn’t stable enough for this site. I will try this out for sure.
