I need help!!

Post by jquinn » Sun Sep 19, 2010 10:09 am

Ok here is the situation. I'm wanting to build my own website. The website will compare prices from several vendors who are online. The customer will be able to compare prices and purchase directly from my website, since they will not know the name of the vendor until after they have made their purchase. It sounds simple in my head but I know it probably isnt. Can anyone help me out. I've been doing a lot of research, and one site said I need a price comparison script. Can I use Joomla to design this or do I have to do something else to get this to work. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Do a diligent search of the extensions area... with nearly 6,000 SANCTIONED extensions and perhaps half again that many more that aren't, no one can know what everything that's out there.

If you don't find an extension to test, post your needs in the Professional Services Forum and work with a Pro to get a quote.

BTW, there's VERY little point in making a post with "I need help!" as the subject... most people won't even read it.
Don't HACK the Joomla! core, Instead "Extend" and/or "Override."
Stay ON the update path.

What that guy said.

Though I'd like to add that this will most probably require a custom extension to be built. I'm not aware of anything that will do this "out of the box" for Joomla.

Good luck.
