Agile Multiple Shop module for Multiple Seller/Vendor

Postby shokinro » Sat Apr 27, 2013 11:14 pm

What is it?
The Agile Multiple Shop module is an accessory for the Agile Multiple Seller module. It provides "virtual shop" functionality in the PrestaShop main store, allowing each seller to have their own virtual shop with - a dedicated virtual directory (URL), sellers can use their own logo, and they can even use a completely different theme.

Compatible with PrestaShop 1.5x ot higher


The Agile PrestaShop Multiple Shop/Store (multi-shop or multi-store) module gives the store owner the ability to provide sellers with their own "virtual shop" inside the main store. With this accessory module, the multiple seller store owner can provide each seller with a dedicated shop with their own pages, logos, and even theme choices.

Main Shop - Seller/Vendor - and Seller’s "Virtual Shop"
Immediately after installing PrestaShop 1.5x, you will have a default store (shop), and PrestaShop will be running in single store/shop mode. This default store (shop) we will call the main store/shop.

After installing the Agile Multiple Seller/Vendor module, you will be able to allow multiple sellers/vendors to list and sell products in the main store. Each seller is represented by an employee account within PrestaShop. Each seller account is linked to following data records:

- Employee account: Allows a seller to access the back office functions and features. Access permissions are controlled by the employee profile.
- Customer account: Allows a seller to access the front office and its seller management features, such as product, order, and profile management.
- A seller business info record: Contains seller's business information, logo, address. etc.
- Seller payment information (multiple records).

With the Agile Multiple Shop module installed, you will be able to create a virtual shop for each seller/vendor.

A virtual store/shop is not a real shop, in that it does not have any physical data. It has one or more URLs, and a store/shop owner, which is a seller/vendor within the Agile Multiple Seller/Vendor module. All products and categories are registered in the main store. The products and categories of a virtual shop are determined by store/shop owner.

Categories of a virtual shop: Contains all public categories of the main store, and the private categories of the virtual shop owner registered in the main store.
Products of a virtual shop: Only products registered (created) by the virtual shop owner.

Features:

- Each seller will have one and only virtual shop
- Each shop will have its own dedicated URL
- Each shop could have its own theme or share a theme, admin can assign the theme to a seller's shop
- The shop could have a choice of following web page header logo options to be set by the store admin:
- Show main store logo only
- Show seller’s logo only
- Show both the main store logo and the seller’s logo (theme modifications required).

- A "Shop by Seller" block – gives the buyer/customer the ability to shop by seller.
- A Seller List page – Page listing all sellers, customers can filter seller list by name.
- A Seller Home page – This is the Home page of a seller's shop, it displays the seller's detailed information and lists all products from the seller.
- A "Shop by Country" block – Allows the buyer to choose a store by country or region if the main store (market place) contains stores/shops from multiple countries

Once a customer enters the seller’s shop, it will only display products from the selected seller’s shop/store. This includes the following PrestaShop standard modules:
- Search block
- New products block
- Category block(on left/right column)
- Category list on footer
- Tags block
- Best seller block
- Manufacturer block
- Supplier block

Note: Any other blocks or modules not listed here are not guaranteed to work.

- Each seller can have their own private shipping carriers (separate Seller Shipping Module is required).
- All virtual shops share the same global payment and checkout process.
- Customer is able to purchase products from different shops with one shopping cart.

Limitations:

- All virtual shops for sellers must be registered under one shop group – Default
- Each seller can have only one virtual shop.

Hi there,

we have couple of comments (one doubt and one improvement) for this module:

- doubt: How can we order list of sellers in hookblockseller.tpl shop by seller? Or in its controller?
- improvement: When we started to translate the hookblockseller.tpl we faced that text "Please choose" was assigned to module "Agile Seller Products" instead of "Agile Multiple Shop", so that text was never tranlated in Multiple Shop.

thanks a million in advance
Best regards
Igor

Can you tell us which version of PrestaShop, and which version of Multiple Shop you're using?

Thanks...

Hi Igor
Thanks for using our modules.

- doubt: How can we order list of sellers in hookblockseller.tpl shop by seller? Or in its controller?

Currently the sellers are sorted by name, ASC order.
If you want to change the way it is sorted, you may need to modify it in controller.
/controllers/AgileSellersController.php

- improvement: When we started to translate the hookblockseller.tpl we faced that text "Please choose" was assigned to module "Agile Seller Products" instead of "Agile Multiple Shop", so that text was never tranlated in Multiple Shop.

Thanks for your reporting of the error. I have corrected the error in our source code. It will be OK with next release.

Hi Shokinro,

In our case, it seems that list is sorted by DESC Vendor id. We want list sorted by seller type and Surname.
We edited controller AgileSellersController.php, but it is not illegible (f.e.: "\x47\x4c\x4f\x42\x41\x4c\x53"}["\x73\x62nw\x77p\x6dr\x6b\x62")

Any option to get file sorted or "readble"?

thanks a lot in advance
Igor

Hi Ignor
Thanks using Agile multiple seller/vendor and agile multiple shop module.

In our case, it seems that list is sorted by DESC Vendor id. We want list sorted by seller type and Surname.

The seller name is come from seller info - company field, but by default it is from first name/last name if the seller do not change.

We edited controller AgileSellersController.php, but it is not illegible

Our code is obfuscated for anti-piracy purpose and IIP protection purpose.
I will send you the open code of this file, so that you can make changes.

Hi,

We want the shop by seller block on left column (drop down list) sorted by seller's name or surname . Currently it is sorted by date added.
Are we able to update it by our own? (updating hookblocksellers.tpl) or should you send us a new file code?

thanks again for your great job and products.
best regards
Igor
