vekia Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 hello for what prestashop version you want this solution? you want to send only shopping cart products? Nothing more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjamin utterback Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Hi, also, who do you want the shopping cart to send to? PrestaShop's BO will automatically keep the Shopping Cart information for your customers and guests, even if they did not checkout or purchase.

silentRun Posted June 24, 2013 Author Share Posted June 24, 2013 Well, It is for prestashop 1.5.4.1. I am creating the website for some small company, and they set the following requirement: Allow clients to add products on the cart, then, at checkout, he can pay the whole order, or just send the details of the whole order to its email or to a friend's email. So, Its a way of saving on email, the budget for a certain group of products, BUT, instead of saving the "shopping cart" in the prestashop platform ( which is something that some modules already give ), the idea is to make it very simple and quick: just add an email and you have all the contents of the current cart in your email inbox, or your friend or girlfriend inbox (and BBC prestashop admin email as well ). Send it on html format and non-html format. About the content of the email, I mean, for each shopping cart line, product name, link to the product, quantity and price. I was thinking of creating the module by myself, I have already created a couple of simple modules, but in this case I dont know how to access to the cart content/cart line items.... I know that prestashop keeps track of created shopping cart, but this is some kind of service for the customer.... Thank you for your response ! Does anyone know some module like this, or a better idea to implement this ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjamin utterback Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Hello, thanks for the information. Have you thought about using the free integrated WishList module... Instead of adding to cart, you can add it to your wishlist and then send it from your account to other Email addresses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentRun Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 Thanks, I already know that, but is not suitable for my scenario, because: - I am working with a special module of reservation, which is not compatible with wishlist. - Anyways, for working with wishlist, first user has to add the item to a wishlist list, then go into his account, go to wishlist, select one, send it... its a bit too long. Also, not all the user are familiarized with the meaning of "wishlist"... Anyways, the main reason is because it is not compatible with the reservation module I am working with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kogkalidis Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Which reservation module do you use? The default prestashop sell procedure is not able to help you? Did you thought about asking the developer of the module to make modification of it to work with wishlist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentRun Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 Yes I asked, but it will increase the price too much and I am not interested. Right now I am working on it, I think I came to a nice solution based on javascript, smarty, and a small form displayed just below the shopping cart items table. The module is called "myownreservations" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kogkalidis Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 You paid 350 euros for the module and they ask more money??? This is insane! If the wishlist is ok for you, then you can change back to regular prestashop (without the module) as it is not useful anymore.. I have a question.. Which is the extra functionality that you cannot work with it on default prestashop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentRun Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 The module really worth the money, it transforms your shop in a hotel reservation system, you can assign availability or a reservable room, different prices for different tiem periods, allow user to pay only a % of the reservation, and the rest on the reception desk... it has a really good of features, dont think it is a high price. It was the best I found for this kind of purpouse. Also, technical support is quite good. Finally what I did is to add a small form in the shopping cart page, where user can add maximum 2 emails, then, if you submit the form, the content of the shopping cart ( items + selected reservation period ) is sent in html and no-html email to both emails and to prestashop admin. I wish I could have spend some time to create a module for that, but I managed to do it direclty with picking the values by javascript and sending the form using jquery and phpmailer. Anyways, thank you very much for your interest ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentRun Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 Is not that the module is incompatible with the wishlist, but you can't save on the wishlist the products with price for the selected period, only the product with the base price per night/timeslot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
