Hi all,

Some of you might know I have been into making webshops for about 1,5 year now. After testing about 30 programs, of which 25 I could toss away after 10 minutes, I choose CS-cart as my preferred platform. I’m glad I did…  I still love it and it keeps getting better, the forum is fantastic, and so is cs-carts support. 

One thing that could use some improvement though is how it handles brands aka manufacturers.

At the moment your product names probably look like: BRAND NAME - Product description. Sometimes this looks ugly because the product names can become quite long, and some products are 2 lines and some are not, which messes up the grid layout.

For some shops, like mine, brands are important. So I had the guys from alt-team (they are great) create an add-on that imo adds some cool stuff to cs-cart.

It adds the following:

list / category view has variants:

variant 1:

brand name (pulled from manufacturer feature)

product name

variant 2:

product name (like the original cs-cart view)

Second thing it does is make the product page look like:

Product name

brand: brand name (under product name, called from manufacturer feature. Links to manufacturer / brand page where customers can read more info about the brand)

I guess pictures say more then words:

I’m personally very happy with the add-on, as I always found the way cs-cart handles brands was a bit too much put away. 

You can download the add-on here for free. A donation would be very much appreciated though. See my paypal link on the left. I promise I won’t spend it on booze.

P.S. cs-cart now also has a multivendor edition, which means you can have multiple vendors selling on your website. A bit like amazon, that’s right!
