WEBFORMAT TYPO3 shop system extension updated with multi-language support

One of the most important features of e-business is the opportunity to reach world markets and most of the times B2B or B2C websites need to translate the whole site in different languages. This is sometimes a long time process absorbing company’s resources and delaying ROIs.  

Webformat advanced shop system extension has just been updated with a multilanguage support. No more long and tedious copy&paste&translate sessions of each content element in duplicated page trees. With the Multilanguage support, Webformat advanced shop system extension offers a turnkey versioning into a different language. At last, editors have only to take care of text translations. 

Simply by activating the  localization function, a new page, with exactly the same content elements, is generated automatically in the same content and ready to be translated. Highlighted original language text helps not to miss the thread of translation and improves visibility options for the translator. Backend products descriptions, prices and other detailed information can be customised according to different price policies, products range and target markets outline. 

Another improvement the WEBFORMAT srl developer Mauro Lorenzutti has added to the shop extension, is the possibility to modify shop setup using the constant editor, thus avoiding the browsing of all the TYPOSCRIPT.  

WEBFORMAT TYPO3 ADVANCED SHOP EXTENSION: main features  

• List and table products visualization mode: in the frontend the products can be displayed in the list mode, like in Kasper’s shop system, and only changing a parameter in TypoScript  products will be displayed in a new table list.
• Products options: a new show modality that brings all the offer products of a selected branch in the page tree is available. Further, it’s possible to set two products options (usually size and color) and a list of correlated products.
• Products Page title and static URL: in the product detail page,  the product name or a different special title can be shown.
• Orders management: for any new order, the extension creates a new page with the order data in a content element ( so items bought and customer personal info can be viewed) and in two tables (orders and rows). This allows the shop administrator to modify the orders data.
• Invoice management: an extra backend extension for the invoice management has been introduced. For any order a pdf invoice is generated including also the invoice template.
• User registration: for any new customer, the plugin creates a new entry in the “tt_address” table with a username and a password directly sent to the user by e-mail.
• On-line payment by credit card and Pay Pal gateways.

The most striking feature is the possibility to export all the products database in order to implement the product catalogue in sub-sites or affiliated sites.
