In the last article I talked about price portals and shopping carts. Price portal need your product catalog and they need to link to every single product as well.

If you are selling products competing with many other vendors, registering your product catalog at a price portal can be a very efficient marketing measure.

You just installed a new software and you really want to know how it feels and what features it has got.

With version 1.2 we tackled some major problems that prevented SilverCart from being loved by the community.

We are proud to release SilverCart 1.2. We're working hard to make SilverCart the best eCommerce module available for SilverStripe.

Obviously we will have to face that, with the upcoming release of SilverStripe 3, our eCommerce module SilverCart will have to adapt to the changes in the underlying framework.

Currently we are working hard on our SilverCart 1.2 release and plan to ship it within the next two weeks. That is, if things go as planned.

We spent the last two days on the "Mail Order World" trade show which copes with ecommerce and mail order business.

The last week I dedicated most of my worktime to the SilverCart handbook for end users.

In our last projects, we realized that customizing while maintaining the ability to upgrade easily would be even easier if we had a plugin system for SilverCart.
