Commerce for Umbraco – Better, Later

 

It is with a degree of regret that we announce the v1.0 release of Commerce for Umbraco will not be concurrent with Umbraco CodeGarden 09.  We have taken into consideration the feedback received at the project's issue tracker, the Umbraco Forum, and directly via Twitter and email in reaching this decision. 

 

The Good News

 

We are committed to releasing an high-quality, very-usable project that will enable Umbraco users to create commerce solutions easily and without requiring .NET-skills, recompiling our commerce assemblies, or a great deal of configuration.  With that in mind, we have set the following goals for the v1.0 release:

 

  • An installer that accommodates a variety of installation scenarios - but only Umbraco v4.*
  • Support for PayPal Standard payments - this is the 'free' account type
  • Much better support for non-US/Canada address and tax schemes

 

We will continue to address the issues we are aware of and those that are identified in the Issue Tracker.  A huge thanks (!!) to all those who've taken the time to log issues.

 

See you at CodeGarden!

    PayPal Pro is fully supported currently - it's PayPal Standard that has some issues *if* the address is not US/Canada:
