amount base cart checkout clicks code create custom download email help html including item link list month over page product products service table url web

Hi, I hope these aren't redundant, but I think they are pretty basic:

1) toggle to sort product list based on item # rather than alpha

2) have ability to custom re-order the order notification email data, or at least have you guys reformat it to be more logical - it's all over the place now and hard to read

3) have option (or just upgrade) to have order notification email in a simple table for readability (along with item #2 above would be ideal)

4) a duplicate product button to copy all general settings (email, thank you page, etc.) and create a new entry - would really save time when populating similar products :)

5) option to remove e-junkie branding on thank you page (for a reasonable fee would be fine) for those that don't want to redirect

6) option to have a single (template) email sent for multiple-item orders with option to turn this on or off - eg. toggle to always send global email on all orders, or only send it on multiple-item orders, or not at all.

7) feature to download a csv/xml (or equiv.) of entire product list for export into other promotional tools like google Base, etc.

8) ability to add same custom logo to the box.js popup - REALLY need this one! :)

9) subscription option to allow a very small and potentially memory-limited amount of download products to the non-download plans. For example, I will soon have 58 service-based products in my cart, but I also want to offer just a couple eBooks to help support the other products and to capture contacts (prob on a free one). Currently, I would be forced to upgrade to the 60-product download plan, costing me a little more - not a big deal at this level of products, but would be so with say 200 products or more. :)

I'm sure I'll think of more - loving the service so far - Keep up the great work Robin, Tyson and others...

PS Small bug/typo report - on your subscription/upgrade page, the bottom-most option on pages with 3-digit prices has a space between the 1's and 10's - eg. $18 5 instead of $185 :)

Thanks for the suggestions; some of them are possible already, with either officially-supported approaches or unsupported judicious hacks. :^)

1) Good idea, we should put that on our Development Wishlist.

2-3) You can Enable Templated Email for your products to replace our standard thank-you email with a message formatted however you wish, including special [%variable%] codes where you want order-specific data to be inserted among the text, then you can have a copy of that email sent to you as well as the buyer -- see more on Templated Email here:
http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/help.customization.htm#emtem

4) Consecutive product additions -- where you go directly from the Get Button Codes screen of a newly-created product to Add Another Product (without returning to Seller Admin first) -- will retain the previously-added product's settings, which you can then modify as needed.

5) You can upload your own logo/header image in Seller Admin > Edit Profile > Upload Your Logo, which will appear in the checkout page, thank-you page, non-JavaScript cart popup windows, and your E-junkie Marketplace shop pages. To activate this feature, you must first become an E-junkie Reseller by posting your Reseller link code on a Web page somewhere; that code is available from Admin > Reseller Account Details. You will earn an ongoing 20% residual out of the monthly subscription fees paid by any new Merchant who clicks your link to sign up for a paid E-junkie Merchant account, for as long as their paid subscription is active.

6) We are already working on a consolidated thank-you email solution, which should be ready to launch later this year; formal announcement of any new features would be posted to our Service Status and Updates forum category here:
http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/forum/6
...and if you're into RSS, we have a feed of updates to that forum available here:
http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/xml/rss-forum-6.xml

7) All products configured in E-junkie which you also choose to list in your E-junkie Marketplace shop pages are already submitted to Google Base and Product Search automatically; what they choose to do with those submissions, if anything, is up to them.

8) IIRC, some others on this forum in recent months discussed a JS/CSS hack to replace the general cart icon in the overlay cart display with a custom logo, but certain technicalities (related to HTTPS/SSL) led us to decide we can not officially support doing that nor provide an easy method for it. You may find hints on our cart-customization page useful:
http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/help.custom-cart.htm

9) Thanks, but the tangible-only (non-download) plans cannot work with any digital products (neither downloads nor keycodes), and overhead costs required to support any digital storage/delivery whatsoever account for most of the price difference between tangible-only vs. digital/download plans, so if you've got 60 products and only need a token 50MB, we might as well give you the 500MB granted with the 60-product digital plan anyway. :^)

Thanks Tyson - Just a few follow-ons...

2-3) The Buyer Templated email is all fine, but I wouldn't want to bother them with all the "internal" order information, and so my suggestion to be able to receive cleanly formatted order notifications still stands. :)

4) Indeed, I used the consecutive feature yesterday for about 52 new products, but it would still be nice to go in after-the-fact and do a quick dupe of a product. :)

5) I've already uploaded my custom header logo and I am a reseller, but it still doesn't remove the E-Junkie link on the top-right of the page (bottom-right of the header), unless I've done something wrong. It's not a big deal, but most cart services either remove that on paid subscriptions or allow an option to do so for a couple bucks/month. :) This might open up your usability a little.

6) Cool, yeah, I'm aware of the plans, but wanted to put in my $.02 about having some options when the feature is enabled, as some hybrid functionality would be most useful.

7) Cool, good to know re the GoogBase feed. Even so, the ability to download the list (or upload for that matter) would still be very useful for those interested in converting their product list into PAD files or populating any other marketing service besides Google.

8) Wow, I can't believe I hadn't found this support page yet - very cool. Thanks! Anyway, a nice little upload your cart-formatted image feature would be nicey. ;)

9) I hear ya - it's only a few more bucks per month anyway, and well worth it, at least with fewer than 60 or so products. :)

Thanks again,

On item 5), the cart screen itself never has any E-junkie logo/link/branding, so regarding our standard thank-you page, you can view source to see how that page is structured and add some CSS to the custom HTML of your common thank-you page (Admin > Account Preferences) that could alter our link presentation (hide/shrink/etc.).

If you're handy with a bit of PHP or JavaScript or the like, you could redirect to your own thank-you URL and still display the content from our thank-you page (sans our header/footer) inside an IFRAME within your page:
http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/help.redirection.htm

When we redirect to your thank-you URL (bypassing our thank-you page), we append some order data (documented at the link above) to your page's URL; your page then just needs some scripting to parse its own URL to obtain the value for txn_id and then write that value back out into the end of your IFRAME src= URL.

Thanks Tyson - Yes, I'm aware of the options for using my own thank you page and will probably go that route eventually, but it would be nice to have the option to have the default built-in thank you page unbranded. :)

Thanks,

-M
