eCommerce + Shopping Carts

[LDNIC]

Are there any recent success stories about integrating eCommerce and/or shopping carts into Ning networks.  The last postings were in 2010 regarding ecwid.com.  Has anybody successfully integrated www.volusion.com?  www.corecommerce.com? or any other cloud-based ecommerce solution?

I integrated a hosted eCommerce setup on my ning network just using an iframe for the store. I guess it really depends on what you are trying to do with your setup and what your specs are.

i still consider ecwid to be ta great option and they've got even better recently. the only downside is that the free plan is limited to 10 products I think.

However, they have great support and there's an affiliates program etc.

I kindly success integrating ecwid into NING. It looks great and I really like it. Checkout feature works fine too. There is only one big issue.  Can't link to any single product. Need to link to the front store only. Because of the javascript code conflict. The detail discuss is here (in ecwid's forum). That means I can't share the link of any product. 

I've asked the NING support about this and the answer is NING won't make changes to specific lines of code for individual networks. And they suggest me to move to another shopping cart. I'm still working on it try to find solutions. Or I need to find another shopping cart.
