Gallery and e-commerce options

Post by dayron »

Hello. I am create a Joomla based site for a client who wants to use his site to post images he took at shoots he's been hired for. FOr the displaying of photos Phoca is great due to the ACL per user (as well as just a great gallery anyway). I was wondering if there was anyone outthere who's found a solution that would allow one to allow site members viewing the photos to click "buy now" or the likes and perhaps pick what size image they'd want. I don't want to get into Virtuemart if at all possible as they want as simle a solution as possible. I like the concept of SImple Caddy, but wouldn't know how to get it to work with Phoca. Any one doing something like this or have any clue where to look to accomplish this?

I need the same for a site that will sell pics, there is no need to complicate your life with a virtuemart since pictures usualy have one price and one or two sizes and i am with dayron when he says that phoca is the best gallery. I'm using it in another site and find it dificolt to change to something else just becouse they might work with a simple cart.

This is the demo if you have time to take a look:

Thank you for you work.

Hi, thank you for the information, seems like I should contact developers of SimpleCaddy to support such feature.

OK, this would do the trick perfectly. I just saw the demo on the Simple Caddy site, and the integration seems very clean. I like it.

They also claim that Jan has promised to make the relevant changes to phoca. Hope things are coming along! I'm available for testing, if it would help. Any estimate on when this will be done? Or is it already, and I've just missed the news? :)

Thanks!
