thank you that is great and appreciate the quick response.

can also you answer these queries
  1. is the software license per site or can I use the software for more than one site.
  2. if i had a products sections I guess I can add paypal buttons but do you have a shopping cart component that can be added at all
  3. another client wants to added a blog or word press to a products site we are going to build, can this be linked to the database so there is only one login, eg. they login to the blog but then go shopping without changing their login details so they are in the correct country currency to make purchases

No problem -

1. Yes - the software license is per site, so you would have to purchase one license per site. While the generated content can be displayed on multiple sites under certain circumstances and server setups, the program itself can only be installed on one site per license.

2. Yes - you can easily add PayPal buttons to a product catalog. Post back here when you are ready for a quick tutorial on the basic setup.

3. Probably - just about anything is possible with the right knowledge. I believe this would require some custom programming, however. Check out http://www.interactivetools.com/consulting/index.phpfor more information about the custom programming.

On a further note, about question #3 - unless it is absolutely necessary to use WordPress or another 3rd Party blog, I would use CMSB instead. You can make an excellent blog using the same software as your product catalog and your clients would then be able to log into one program to control both items.

We have developed sites that control over 75 different sections of a single website - things such as FAQs, directories, catalogs, news, photo galleries, calendars, blogs, multimedia, document libraries, store locations, organizers, payment processors that communicate with Authorize.net and Paypal, menus, classified ads, real estate listings, testimonials - the possibilities are endless.

Let me know if you think of anything else - we are happy to help...

in reply to point 3 in original post I have asked our client what they want their website to do in total.

They want a shopping cart webshop and blog with the following:


1) Calendar for trade-shows etc

3) Flickr or picasa plug in for photo’s

4) Google map API for showing locations of our retailers and our communities

5) Youtube so we cna showcase movies about our communities or video blogs ABl makes

6) Facebook and myspace blog update application so we can automatically update our facebook pages with new posts

7) Mini blog panel we can locate on other pages or domains

8) Integration of Members database with email list and the a webshop

9) if a memeber logs into the shopping cart the product prices and delivery charges automatically appear in their country according to their membership details

10) if a member logs into the blog they can go to shopping area without login again and visa versa.

Hi redgirl,

CMS Builder does a great job of handling the content management part, but for the rest of this you're going to need to either get a lot of custom programming (it would be a _big_ project) or talk the client down for the first 1.0 version of their website.

Hope that helps.
