RapidCart Pro elegantly solves this problem with a complete editable list of countries. New laws in Europe dictate that some products must be sold with VAT calculated in the purchaser’s, not in the vendor’s country. If you offer discounts based on the number of items purchased RCP makes this process a lot easier than in the original RapidCart (I never was terribly good at numeration and found the old process complicated). If you want to show larger images, just ‘Enable Lightbox’ in Settings. If you add multiple images to your products, RCP automatically creates a slideshow. RCP has support for long product description HTML editing and, if you’re thinking of moving up from RapidCart 3, your existing store can be imported directly into RCP. Obviously a variable for the size of the t-shirt can be set in each case. If you are selling t-shirts, you can either add a blue t-shirt, a yellow t-shirt and a red t-shirt, or you can add a Led Zeppelin t-shirt with options for a blue, yellow, or red shirt. You’ll see what I mean as we go along.Īdding products to your store is easy. RCP makes use of RapidWeaver’s resources, so you drag your product images there. The decision to do a rewrite solves a number of problems that e-commerce solutions in RapidWeaver have had until now.
OTHER USES FOR RAPIDCART PRO MANAGEMENT UPDATE
So rather than update RapidCart, Foreground has decided to create a completely new store solution - RapidCart Pro (RCP). RapidCart is a little long in the tooth now and, while it is still a great solution for smaller online stores, it’s not ideal for larger stock lists. RapidMaps, for instance, lets you insert very flexible Google Maps into your web page… and then there is RapidCart, one of the first e-commerce solutions available for RapidWeaver.

They have a cool app that gives you rulers on your Mac’s screen and, as Foreground, they also develop some great RapidWeaver plugins. They are a small Italian software smithy.

Remember Omnidea? Foreground is a brand of Omnidea.
