      There are none at this current time. That said, developing one should not be that difficult for an experienced PHP programmer.

        It seems like it has been pretty difficult to get one for MODx now. All the experienced PHP programmers are too busy.

          Well, that depends...if there’s more donations to the MODx project, then those programmers have to work less on client work to get food on the table, and can focus more on MODx. Unfortunately, that’s the case.

          :D

              Yes it’s something that’s desperately needed. It would just make Modx the absolute bees knees.

              Modx already has most of the required bits, it just needs a slick cart.

              Shopkeeper comes frustratingly close, but the lack of proper English documentation is a real barrier. But it holds the most promise I feel.

              Foxycart also comes close but it uses a totally ugly thickbox and unfortunately is a third party solution with all of the issues that that entails. It also suffers from an almost total lack of documentation.

                I had converted the Russian text in Shopkeeper over to English using Google’s translate function and some common sense. The version was 0.8.8 and there should be a reference to it in the archives along with a link. I had also included notes that I took for myself on how to get it installed and how to duplicate the Shopkeeper demo site. The notes, frankly, suck as a tutorial. But the intent was to help me back out of any alley I inadvertently went down.

                If you can’t find the zip file and want to mess around with the code, PM me and I’ll send it off.

                PS The notes assumed an Evo install ...
