Multi-Vendor, Multi-Store E-Commerce Forums Now Open!
January 7, 2009 (9 Responses)
DUE TO Popular demand I’ve created two new forums here on Avalon5 (public and private) to discuss multi-vendor, multi-store e-commerce requirements and solutions.
There are two particular articles running at this site which discuss the need for, and the various potential solutions for, a multi-vendor / multi-store open source e-commerce solution. Rather than try to keep the two seperate threads of conversations up to date in parallel I’ve decided to open up two new forums at the site to help promote and record the discussions.
The multi-vendor, multi-store (public) forum is for general discussions, rants and raves etc. about the state of things and what kind of experiences we are having dealing with vendors etc.
The multi-vendor, multi-store (private) forum is for those of you who want to get involved in a serious capacity, and by that I mean that we are formulating a list of requirements (generated from discussions) and contacting various e-commerce vendors with a view to soliciting a price to get the required functionaltiy developed, which we would then hope to share amongst us. This forum will require a password which can be obtained from me as required and discussions in there may relate more to the financial and commercial side of things.
All you need to do to use either of these forums is just register at the forum itself and from then on you can start/respond to threads as required.
I hope the creation of these forums helps promote and advance the discussion, and at the very least it will provide a home for all the conversations and a place to debate the potential solutions. Let me know if you need anything else in this area and I’ll do my best to provide it.
How nice of you creating two forums just to address every concern and give solutions where it should be. Good idea and very timely.
Ha indeed, how very nice of you, but what does it all mean basel?
The multi store, multi vendor E-commerce solution is just what I am looking for – anything out there yet?
Thanks for introducing this type of e-commerce discussion. Having been involved with multi-store environments I think this type of resource was much needed. Look forward to gleaning the pearls of wisdom…

Welcome here guys. This kind of solution is highly needed these days. Lot of potential !!! let’s get it on. i am atm thinking about forking magento to do this. everyone on board is welcome. I am also in the development team of a joomla e-commerce solution but due to limitations we cant go this way in joomla. i would say forking is the way to go … not reinventing the weel again. tell me what’s on ur mind … cheers
When it comes to forum, this is the most preferred site to get spammed by many. I hope you have good spam protection on new user registration and well moderated forum. It is time consuming to run a forum too.
hi,
its really great to hear that you have been planning for two forums for separate causes. It not only prevents Spam but also makes people to decide their interests and makes them join in the forums of their wish. Looking forward to discuss in your new Forum. You have included everything we wished and hence i have nothing to ask from you rather than the eager to participate in the new Forum.
