    1. MailChimp Integration

      Alright, you guys have done a great job otherwise, but are apparently not familiar with email marketing, anti-spam laws, etc. Almost any other popular shopping cart gets it. You need to be more competitive, and give us, your customers, the marketing edge we deserve.

        UPDATED
        Regretfully, we were not able to finalize the MailChimp integration for version 4. However it is still on slate for addition on the 3dcart service soon.

        Therefore, we are reopening this uservoice vote to keep keep everyone advised of its status.

        Stay tuned for news as it comes.

        =====
        Great news!

        I was just advised that MailChimp integration will be available on version 4 due out next month!

        Thank you all for the suggestion and votes. I’ll be marking this as complete in order to give you all your votes back.

      • Automate the Google Product (base) Merchant Center Feed

        I know we're new here, but I would like to request that 3d get an automated feed process implemented for Google Products (Merchant Center).

        We came here from a couple of different lesser carts (both less sophisticated and lower in cost), and they both had automated feeds to Google Products (base).

        In chatting with support, they recommended that the more people that request this, the faster it may happen. So please, chime in on this one!

        • Create a customer password reset link.

          Right now the default store language tells customers that they can request a password reset link, but in fact all the system does is email them their password. Please instead set this up as a reset link! Our customers are angry that passwords are being sent to them by email, as they feel their information is a risk this way.

          • Improve the file manager!!!

            We would really, really, really appreciate modifications to the file manager that makes images easier to locate, with sticky functionality so that we aren't sent back to the beginning of the list every time we make a change. We would also like an easier way to see which images are being used for our products.

            • Facebook Connect Integration

              Allow users browsing the 3dcart store to create an account using Facebook Connect. This will allow their basic info to be pulled from Facebook for setting up the account - later during checkout essential info can be modified, but with FB connect (just like there is on this uservoice page actually) - as long as they are logged into FB, they are logged into your 3dcart store. Better conversions. Plus, allows for wall posts after any purchases to be toggled on/off.

                • Allow for International Shipping Rates to be displayed on the View Cart Page

                  We would like our international customers to have the ability to obtain a shipping quote like is available for domestic US customers, by entering City, Postal Code, State and Country like it is possible on the "One Page Checkout" Page

                  • Have a 'buy 2 (or any specified number) get (any) one product of the same or less value free' option

                    I love 3dcart but it doesn't seem to be that friendly to upsales and cross promotions...This idea will be ideal for me as it would create an incentive for customers to buy more - ie will increase the average transaction a lot...

                    • Buyer notified how far away from next discount level.

                      We would like to see a feature added to 3Dcart after a customer adds an item to their cart it would tell them that they are so much away from the next discount level. This can only apply to discounts set up by the merchant where they is no coupon required. For example a discount level of 5% is given when the order totals $50.00 or more. The next discount level is 10% at $100.00. If the amount in the order is $75.40 the message should say "Purchase another $24.60 in items and you will receive a 10% discount" It… more

                      • Make at least one pure Div Tag and CSS based (not table based) design template.

                        Please please please make at least 1 pure CSS based template that we can use as a starting point. The table structure just makes my hair fall out!

                        • Expand free product promotion options

                          We would like to see a feature added to 3Dcart in promotions where a free product is offered. We should be able to offer a choice of free products in the promotion, not just one. The customer still would be able only to choose one of the free products per order.

                            I would like the Free Shipping to calculate not off of the subtotal but rather the actual cart total AFTER coupon/promotions are applied.

                              UPDATE
                              We looked into the possibility of adding this, but logistically it was not possible when the previous posting was made.

                              It is still something we are looking to add however. Therfore, We are changing the status of this vote from “Started” back to the default “Open” status.
                              -—————————————————-
                              A new setting for “Calculate Shipping After Discounts” will be added on the next release.

                              We would like to see a feature added to 3Dcart to add a different type of promotion when if the customer buys any 6 items (same or different items) they get the lowest priced item from the cart free. If they buy 11 items they get the lowest two items from the cart free. And so on for every 5 items they get another lowest priced item from the cart free. I know it is already setup for buying for multiple quantities of the same product. This promotion would apply to the entire cart. The ratios could be changeable by… more

                              • Need another advanced option

                                PLEASE add the option to go under "Advanced Options" and hide individual advanced options instead of hiding an entire option! For some of my items I need to hide just one size out of many for one color. Not the size for all colors or all sizes for one color. Right now people have the ability to Back-order items that I have that I don't want them too, but other colors or sizes I do want them to be able to back-order. So we need a hide or "allow backorder" button on each individual advanced option!!

                                • Duplicate or Copy Promotions

                                  I want to be able to make a duplicate/copy of Promotions so I don't have to set up the WHOLE thing from scratch again. Many of our promos are very similar and it would sure save time to be able to duplicate them - just like you can with a product listing.

                                  • Auto Hide EMPTY Categories, and EMPTY Brands. If no active unhidden products, then hide.

                                    Having a customer click on a brand or category, only to find that there are no products there is a waste of time/bandwidth/effort - and negatively affects sales.

                                    We need a way to have empty categories hidden ie: hide categories which have no active/unhidden products.

                                    On a similar note, we also need a way to hide a Brand (Manufacturer) which has no active/unhidden products.

                                    Categories can be manually hidden - by going through every category on the site and seeing which categories don’t show products. Brands can't be hidden at all. Brands have to be DELETED to have them excluded… more

                                      Have the ability to let users select how many products displayed per page for search results. I like when I go to sites and I can select 15, 30, 100, etc. on the search results per page.

                                      • Limit the number of characters in a Text Area

                                        Right now we can only write something like "20 characters max", but customers tend to ignore the instructions which means we have to follow up with a phone call or email. Limiting the number of characters in a Text Area is standard in other carts. It would benefit many 3DCart web sites, including those who sell products with engraving.

                                        • Metric (Kg/gram) Shipping Weights

                                          Currently the default weight measure in 3dcart is in pounds... when we make custom shipping methods we have to also enter the weigth ranges in pounds.

                                          How about we have the option to enter kg/grams for each item, and also set up weight ranges in kg/grams for shipping methods.

                                          USA is just about the only country in the world using the imperial system... please give up the option for metric.

                                          • Print number of items in order on receipts

                                            We would like to see a feature added to 3Dcart where the number of items in the order are printed on both the customer and merchant receipts. It does show the number of items now but only before the checkout button is chosen. In the one page checkout page it does not show how many items once the order is complete. This is helpful for larger orders.
