Description

    Details

    What can this OpenMage/magento 1 extension do for you?

    Simply put, it can save you valuable time, and it can save you money.

    How can it do this?

    OpenMage is one of the most powerful e-commerce frameworks available today. Unfortunately, since it was created, the category management admin area never evolved much. This is especially true in regards to how you associate products to your categories.

    Currently (even in the latest version), you are required to manually find and associate products to your categories. If you have ever done this, especially when managing a store with a large product catalog, you will know all to well that this is a tedious, and time consuming task. It may even be necessary to hire staff dedicated to this task. Since the task is extremely cumbersome, it may even be possible to accidentally exclude some products from being associated to a category, resulting in potential revenue loss.

    Using the Dynamic Category Products extension, the task of associating products to your categories become so simple, and automated. Additionally, the extensions capabilities also allows you to create (and automate) new types of categories. Some examples would be a Best Sellers category, or a Most Viewed Products category.

    So how does it actually work?

    The Dynamic Category Products extension allows you to define rules to associated products with the category that you are editing. If a product is found in your catalog that matches the rule(s), they will be associated to the category. It is as simple as that. The rules are defined in the same way as those used in the standard OpenMage Shopping Cart Rules, and is thus already familiar to use. No user training is required.

    It is also possible to mix rule based and manually selected product associations. This means that you can still manually assign products to a category, even if that category has rules defined. The manually associated products will not be affected by the rules. They will stay associated until manually removed.
    Rules can be complex, meaning that you can combine unlimited rule combinations to build the category that you require.

    Categories are kept up-to-date

    Each day, all categories which has rules defined are rebuilt, thus ensuring that the associated products are kept up-to-date.
    If a product is edited, and any of the product attributes are changed (for example color is set from green to black), any category that uses the color attribute in its rules will be rebuilt within a 5 minute cycle. This simply means that the product will appear in the correct category (as defined by the color attribute rule) within 5 minutes.
    If a new product is created, or imported, the same 5 minute cycle applies. The product will appear in any category that has the rules that matches the product attributes.

     

    This module does not create a new category system, and has NO REWRITES! All core category functionality remains intact. Due to the fact that there are no rewrites, this extension is super compatible with other OpenMage modules, and should not result in code conflicts with other 3rd party extensions.

    Compatible with all version from CE 1.4+ and EE 1.11+

    See our examples on the demo site, or create your own examples.
    Any product attribute (or attribute combinations) can be used to build the dynamic rules, making the product groupings limitless!

    New features are added constantly, most upon request from existing clients.

    We offer two types of licences:

    Option 1: (the default) Standard licence, per domain. This means you can use the module for one domain name. Example domains that are valid: one.example.com, two.example.com (unlimited sub-domains), or www.mysite.com, www.mystite.com.au, www.mysite.ru (unlimited domains for one store, for the purpose of country/language hosting of the one store. A limitation is that they are hosted on one OpenMage install, as multiple stores. If you have multiple servers, each server requires one licence)

    Option 2: Multiple domains, per OpenMage install. This will cover unlimited domain names, all on one OpenMage install.

    You do not need licences for development / testing / uat sites. Licences are only required for live sites.
