Hey guys,
I'm looking for a shopping cart ( preferably open source and PHP ) that supports a few uncommon features. I spent most of yesterday digging through the various php carts ( os commerce, zen cart, ect ) and didn't find much useful things. As far as I can tell, all these things will need to be customized so my best bet would be to find a cart that support modules .. almost like a Drupal or Wordpress of ecommerce.
BUT hopefully I'm wrong and there is something out there already that supports:
Advanced user roles controls / customization.
One of the user role ( lets call them creators ) should be able to create a shopping cart list, save the cart and generate a code.
Another user role ( lets call them purchasers ) should be able to input the cart code, and automatically have all items in that saved cart added to their own cart to proceed with checkout.
A royalty program
If a creator generated a cart code that lots of people use to purchase, we need to track this information to give them a royalty at the end of the month.
Thanks for your help.
