    Default My favourite products

    Hi,

    Our site is an online supermarket type shop, where customers will be able to save their orders as "shopping lists", so that they can come back again and order the same thing weekly.

    Is it possible to save the content of a cart? Has anyone done this?

    Hi Matt,

    Why not rename all string resources referring to 'wish list' to 'shopping list' ?

    Is that at all feasible for what you're trying to accomplish?

    Thanks.

    We have modified the wish list to display as Favorites List, but the problem we encountered is when an item is added to the “list” and then added to the cart it is removed from the “list”. Is there anyway keep the item in the “list” even after it’s added to the cart?

    The problem for us with using the “reorder” function is that the customer may 1 item from 2 orders ago another item from the last order and an item from 5 orders ago.

    Thanks

    Any ideas?

    We would love to have the items remain in the wish/favorites list after it's added to the cart.

    That would take some modifications, there's no way built in to do that. You'll probably need to modify the aspdnsf_MoveToShoppingCart sproc as a start so it doesn't remove the items from the wishlist when they're moved, and possibly some other code changes as well.

    Hi guys, OP here.

    We ended up implementing our own Order Templates table and TemplateProduct table, as the need arose to have multiple Order Templates per user, and it seemed a bit messy to override the WishList to do this. Although we did look at doing that.

    Does the movetoshoppingcart just change the shoppingcart type from 1 to 0 or does it remove it from one place and add it to another?
