Birthlist gift site on ImpressCMS

I became a father 2 weeks ago. In Belgium, it's customary to have a list of gifts, so that your friends and family can buy useful things for the baby.
The baby list solutions that were available (mostly linked to one shop or another) were not nice at all, so I decided it had to be custom-made in ImpressCMS (of course).

The site can be found at http://laura.karekiet39.be It's built on ImpressCMS 1.3.2.1, Catalogue with jCart 1.3 integrated and some custom work to have a mail on checkout with payment info, instead of PayPal integration. The theme is based on boiler by MrTheme.

A big thanks to Madfish for the initial integration of jCart into his catalogue module, skenow for bugfixes on the jCart integration and MrTheme for the theme work (and team work as well).

Congratulations! I wish you and your family all the best.

Btw., the idea about a "baby list solution" is very cool.

Re: Birthlist gift site on ImpressCMS

The birthlist - we call it a registry here in the states - could be a good start on a new module.

I think it just needs add the ability for users to associate products with their account.

So once someone says they are going to buy it it becomes unavailable to other users that way you don't end up with 10 car seats. :)

So if we add a field that lets the user commit to buying that item - then simply gray out items that are spoken for. and show the users name who has committed to the item.

It is an edge case use - but still a cool module for sure.

The jcart integration - also gives us the chance to make a nice little shop module if we wanted as well - really just need to re-add the paypal integration and get those config options in the preferences.
