Gift List shopping allows a person(s) to select a list of products they would like to have. They place the products into their shopping basket. Then, rather than checkout and pay for the items, they save the basket to the Gift/Wish List with one click. For quick saves, they can also save them from the individual product screens. In Merchant 4.x stores with page templates, you can have save links on any screen where products are displayed, e.g. category, search, product list. In Merchant 4.x and if you are also using our Tell A Friend module, a convenientbutton is placed at the bottom of the Gift List display to forward the URL for the Gift List to friends.

Then, you as the gift giver, can review the list and select the item or items you would like to give them. Lists are looked up with easy to remember code, i.e. list owner's initials and phone number.

Customers can also save items they plan to purchase later by placing them in a wish list. The admin configuration allows the store owner to change the labels from gift list to wish list or even favorites list. Customers simply place the items in the basket and save them to the wish list with a single button click. Customers can also save them individually from the product screen as with the gift list. This is an excellent tracker mechanism to promote future sales in your store.

The admin report allows you to view all active gift lists.

This module allows you to maintain the gift or wish list database on your server. There are no ridiculous monthly/quarterly fees to pay to other companies just to store customer wishes on their server. You control your data.

The module can save attributes of products to the Gift/Wish List, e.g. S, M or L. The basket save form template can be customized to conform to your site's look and feel. Likewise, the search form templates used to locate the gift/wish list can be customized. If you are not versed in templates, you can select to use the default forms until you feel comfortable modifying the HTML.

The module can use OpenTokens instead of hook points within OpenObjects. The OpenDesigner screen lists the OpenObjects which can replace all or some screens within the OpenUI user interface. The OpenObjects provide a template screen which contains the existing hook points (backward compatibility), OpenToken capability, and the ability to move output around within the OpenObject screen. Since the tokens in this module conform to OpenToken functionality, they may be used in other template type screens like those provided by Viking Coders. Place the save to Gift/Wish list button on the Merchant pages so that it better fits your desired look.
