kongondo Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Hi all. For a while now been wondering how many would be interested in a backend and frontend shop catalogue built on top of PadLoper? I've previously spoken to @apeisa about this and his take is that there are no plans to develop PadLoper in this direction but he's happy to support such efforts. The gist of the backend shop catalogue is to provide one place (think ProcessModule) where you can manage your PadLoper products - add, edit, delete, track sales, etc without having to set up the underlying structure yourself. The frontend would be like a shop/webstore profile, a frontend cart basically, that's customisable. The shop would be 100% powered by PadLoper. This means that to use the 'shop catalogue' would require that PadLoper is installed. These are just loose ideas at the moment for a pro module. This might or might not see the light of day depending on feedback. Anyway, would love to hear thoughts, thanks. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szabesz Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Hi Kongondo, I'm interested, although I have not used PadLoper yet, I might want to use it when time comes to get rid of any of "my Woo shops". Not in the near future though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clsource Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 May be starting with something small like a subscription service. Then making things a little more complex like a T shirt shop. Then a more complex one with features similar to woocommerce or something like that. I think is a wonderful idea. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flydev Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Just do it Kongondo! I would have bought it directly. It would have saved me a lot of time for the project I'm going to work. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfil Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 That is a super idea Kongondo! I hope you find the time to do it. Padloper is great, but like Ryan, is taking time to develop the new PW themes. If there were premium modules, a default theme, a customer area, that would probably boost padlopers sales. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would gladly support a commercial module with the feature set listed. Good luck, as always. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanLindsey Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Sounds really good. Would happily purchase. The backend being pre-done is much more interesting to me than the having a front end template. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kongondo Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 This is now going to happen as part of Padloper itself! :-). Cross-referencing with the relevant thread. https://processwire.com/talk/topic/19912-future-of-padloper-new-project-lead-announcement/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
