Hi Sharteel,

I'm not sure whether you aware, but the underlying technology used by KonaKart (Java) is very different to that used by osCommerce and Zen Cart (PHP). Therefore unless there is some very specific functionality that you are looking for, I'd start narrowing down the products based on the technology that you are most comfortable with in terms of development skills, deployment infrastructure etc.

Indeed, we don't have this functionality at the moment. It's not one of the higher priority features on our TODO list, but we think that it should be relatively straight forward to implement. Is wish list functionality important for you ?

and sitemap.xml generator.
Once you've customized the UI to suit your needs, can't you just use a tool such as http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/ to generate that ?

I'm not sure exactly what you mean here ??? If you intend the scheduling of Admin functionality, this can be done easily enough by creating the functionality (the Job) in a small java program using the API and then scheduling that using chron or something similar.

Actually it's KonaKart, but it takes more than a mere typo to upset us  :)

Yes, testimonial or WishList is good fonctionnalities and many customers want it. From wich code, can i to modify and copy for this ?

Same wishlit, sitemap button in BakcOffice is good idea, i think.

In theory, using our customization framework you can now introduce your own API calls and so you could implement the wishlist functionality. However, you would need a good understanding of the KonaKart architecture and the Torque persistence layer.

This is really a core product feature and so I feel that it should be implemented and maintained by KonaKart, especially since it will probably also require some features in the Admin App to maintain it. We will give it a higher priority although I cannot guarantee at the moment if / when we'll implement it since we tend to favour the requests of customers with support contracts and already have a list of these scheduled.
