ModX Catalogue

Hi,

it is my first time on the forum, I’m looking for a Catalogue module or Shopping Cart for ModX, optimised for SEO, I got thousand of products and I need a simple way to insert them but with an optimised SEO feature, one page each product and with "Send to a friend", comment, etc. I don’t need checkout or payment, it will just work as a basket of products and categories

I don’t mind pay for it if it’s necessary.

Thanks

For a catalog, you can handle it as if it were more-or-less a blog. With thousands of products, I’d go with Revolution.

There are quite a few video tutorials on using Revo as well; they would all be helpful in getting started.

When using documents as products as suggested above, I just make a few in the manager, and then use phpMyAdmin to download a spreadsheet of the documents. I then add the rest of the products to the spreadsheet, convert it to CSV, and use phpMyAdmin to import it back in. It’s a bit tedious, but it beats creating them one by one.

I also need to make a catalogue site, with multiple product categories and subcategories, with some products in more than one category. I need to create product list pages (eg Women’s t-shirts) with products in 3 columns and over several pages. And I need to make a detail page with for each product with images custom fields like color, qty, etc. There’s no actual cart but it should generate quotations that can be emailed back to the company. There should be user login and search.

I’m using Revo. Should I treat it like a blog with Get Resources or something else. FoxyCart? VisionCart?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
