Title: Hika shop or Zencart plugin?
Post by: Littleshop on March 01, 2011, 10:28:10 PM
Is there any type of automated plug in for any popular shopping carts?  I love Hikashop http://www.hikashop.com/ but also can deal with zencart or others.  I would love to start a store that automatically accepted BTC versus having to do it all manually.

There's one for Virtuemart (Joomla)
https://github.com/mikegogulski/bitcoin-virtuemart

https://www.mybitcoin.com/ also offers one-click plugins if I remember correctly.


Edit:
There's also

Bitcoin for Wordpress e-commerce

and

Bitcoin for Ubercart (Drupal)

I'm willing to do a Zen Cart plugin if the bounty is right :)

Madhatter implemented a Zen Cart plugin.  There is some discussion of it in this thread:

Lemme know how it goes, please. I'm not running an active VirtueMart shop myself, so the code is kinda alpha-ish.

xover from another thread:

Maybe this is something that could be added to the wordpress e-commerce shopping cart.  yeah, just thinking a historical exchange price to purchase chart would be awsome.

+1
i would so LOVE to build a little wordpress "shop" that accepts only BitCoin as a hobby and further the cause (it would be me selling my gold/silver coins, mostly). however, updating the prices sucks unwashed goat-ass.

if there was a way to make [shop-plugin] make the following, I'd be one happy camper:

a) take the price of something (gold-price, $XAU)
b) look for the vwap of the last X (three?) hours of $BTC-trading across Y exchanges
c) maybe apply some minor math to it (like [$XAU/31,11/$BTC]+0,5BTC)
d) put that shit right next to my krugerrand

and then log in the whole shebang, send the BTC to my safe.wallet.dat (there needs to be the option to supply a list of x BitCoin-Adresses the plugin uses to send the funds to make it less vulnerable), sends out an email with order confirmation, KABOOM! BUSINESS!
