Overview
Shopaholic is a scalable and highly flexible e-commerce ecosystem for October CMS. The core plugin is provided free of charge and includes the following set of features:
- Products and trade offers management.
- Product image gallery management.
- Products grouping by categories and brands.
- Multi-currency, taxes and price types management.
- Data import (product, offers, categories, brands) from a CSV/XML file.
- Basic products filtering (by category, brand etc.) and sorting (by price, new additions etc.)
In order to cater to the growing scalability demands of a project, the ecosystem provides extra plugins to extend the basic functionality. With these plugins sellers can:
- Manage multi-language content (via RainLab.Translate).
- Sell online (via Lovata.PayPalShopaholic).
- Extend online payment options by adding additional payment providers (via Lovata.OmnipayShopaholic).
- Create custom products filters by any essence (e.g. by New additions, Discounts, In stock etc.) (via Lovata.FilterShopaholic).
- Add custom properties to a product (via Lovata.PropertiesShopaholic).
- Bind similar products to a certain one (via Lovata.RelatedProductsShopaholic).
- Manage promo activities (via Lovata.CouponsShopaholic, Lovata.DiscountsShopaholic and Lovata.CampaignsShopaholic).
- Group products for SEO reasons (via Lovata.TagsShopaholic).
- Manage complex SEO issues (via Lovata.MightySeo).
- Increase the revenue by assigning accessories to the products (via Lovata.AccessoriesShopaholic).
- Manage customers (via Lovata.Buddies or RainLab.User).
Besides you can provide a better UX for the customer with the ability to:
- Sind the popular products ( via Lovata.PopularityShopaholic).
- Search for the products (via Lovata.SearchShopaholic or Lovata.SphinxShopaholic).
- Compare the products (via Lovata.CompareShopaholic).
- Find the products they viewed before (via Lovata.ViewedProductsShopaholic).
- Leave and read the reviews for the products (via Lovata.ReviewsShopaholic).
- Postpone the products for the future purchases (via Lovata.WishListShopaholic).
The development of Shopaholic’s ecosystem is guided by the similar philosophies of October CMS and Unix like operating systems, where the main focus is to create simple microarchitecture solutions that communicate with each other through smart APIs.
One one hand, this approach allows keeping performance, security, and functionality of the code to a high standard. On the other hand, it provides a clean and smooth back-end UI/UX that isn't over-bloated with the features.
Installation
Regardless of the installation type you choose, you must install Toolbox plugin, which is a required dependency for Shopaholic.
Artisan
Using the Laravel’s CLI is the fastest way to get started. Just run the following commands in a project’s root directory:
php artisan plugin:install lovata.toolbox php artisan plugin:install lovata.shopaholic
Composer
If you prefer Composer run following commands in a project’s root directory:
composer require lovata/oc-toolbox-plugin composer require lovata/oc-shopaholic-plugin php artisan october:up
It's not recommended way because of possible collisions with the updating of the plugins.
Once the plugins are installed take a look at the official documentation for the possible next steps.
Documentation
The complete official documentation of the ecosystem can be found here.

Great plugin!
It's little bit harder to start out as there are no default component's markup files but all is covered in documentation (or in plugin's code) and this way it helps me to understand the architecture.
After 2 days i have a fully functional eShop - cool :)
And I like the philosophy - free main plugins and payed extra extensions. The price is reasonable compared to quality and coding/documenting time.
Keep up the good job!

October CMS is #1 choice of our agency, and we're happy that there's such a product as Shopaholic in the ecosystem of plugins and themes!
These plugins take care of a lot of e-commerce business issues. Using Shopaholic, you get stable and reliable code-base, easy to extend functionality, ready-made themes, quick and careful support by the core team despite there's detailed documentation.
Besides, we have successful experience in contributing to the open-source core. We strongly recommend Shopaholic to use for your next e-commerce project on October CMS!

Great store with a large set of extensions and an active community.
Everyone complains that the cost of extensions is allegedly high. But really, if you think about it...
Buy you a standard set of gentleman for the client store.
Next on the list:
Properties for Shopaholic - 15$ Mighty SEO - 15$ Filter for Shopaholic - 50$ Review for Shopaholic - 10$ Yandex Kassa for Shopaholic - 15$
Total: 105$ or 6 500 RUB
For the development of such a store, the client will pay 1500-2000$
Is it expensive? If you work constantly, and not as a hobby, then you will already have blanks to the templates and the development of the store does not take much time. At the same time, the client will get a good product and constant updates.
It is not necessary to compare with OpenCart in principle. I've worked on it a lot and suffered a lot in my time. There were many problems of compatibility of plug-ins with old versions and the most stupid admin panel. The developers put another admin plugin and got the admin inside the admin.
If you are developing stores for $ 500 for your customers, you probably should not use Shopaholic and October CMS.
Since the blow to the pocket will be tangible. For such development it is better to use a more typical Wordpress
In conclusion: The Shopaholic ecosystem is excellent. It is constantly evolving and getting better. I fully agree that there is bad documentation, but there is hope that it will be, since it appeared shopaholic.one
And to be honest, I do not understand why demo fragments are not used in components. It would make life easier for everyone. Constantly dissecting a demo is still a pleasure.

Thx for using Shopaholic products. We're happy you enjoy them.
As for your comments...
If you are developing stores for $ 500 for your customers, you probably should not use Shopaholic and October CMS.
Since the blow to the pocket will be tangible. For such development it is better to use a more typical Wordpress
We believe low-budget projects should use ready-made solutions such as Sneakers Shop for Shopaholic Bundle. The price starts at $150. For this money, a customer gets a fully functional online store that can be customized in the future when the appropriate budget will be available.
In conclusion: The Shopaholic ecosystem is excellent. It is constantly evolving and getting better. I fully agree that there is bad documentation, but there is hope that it will be, since it appeared shopaholic.one
We agree the previous version of the documentation wasn't perfect. Since your review has been published we've released a brand new very detailed documentation, which can be found on the official website shopaholic.one. Please, follow this direct link.
And to be honest, I do not understand why demo fragments are not used in components. It would make life easier for everyone. Constantly dissecting a demo is still a pleasure.
We intentionally didn't include the views in the core. We believe each project has a custom UI. But we're working on a bunch of the new themes (including free) so that they can be taken as the basis of a new project with a custom design.
By the way, we're pushing the theme auto-update functionality, which should include some way of theme extending. Please, read this GitHub issue #4309 and share your thoughts about it.

The author below doesn't know what he's talking about. It's awful advice!
I worked with the Mall plugin a half a year, and I strongly recommend to avoid it. Especially if you're a beginner. After using Mall, when I started working with Shopaholic, I wondered how faster and easier the development becomes to be.
So, Shopoholic is the best and the only choice in the marketplace at the moment.

Thank you for your opinion!
But let’s be honest, valid, and comprehensive while making judgments. Every software, free or paid, has different other features. And objective comparison will always take into account all of them.
Shopaholic provides a possibility to build the eStore for free. Paid plugins allow users to make it easier and faster, saving their money as a result. Moreover, the paid products help OctoberCMS to develop as 30% of every purchase goes to the marketplace as a contribution. Let us quote from the article Open Source: From Community to Commercialization:
Economic interest creates a virtuous cycle, or flywheel. The more business innovation we have, the larger the developer community, which spurs more technological innovation, which increases the economic incentives for open source. I’ll talk at the end of the presentation about what I think is the future of open source in 3.0 and point out some of the interesting innovations that are currently happening on both the technological and business side.
Peter Levine, Andreessen Horowitz
We are fully confident in the quality and value of Shopaholic. And we will provide for free the full package of required modules for those who will be ready to arrange an honest and transparent comparison of it with other competitive systems. We hope someone who is ready, reads these words. Do not hesitate to write us a line, and we will negotiate the details!
You left two fully opposite reviews on competing products at one time, where the one is flawless, and the other is completely crap. Every single thing has its own pros and cons. Ignoring that fact is quite strange and suspicious behavior.

If you plan to use this plugin for something more than you see on example themes of same vendor, bury your expectations first. Documentation is terrible, even for paid addons. For example, if you need pretty standatd breadcrumbs, documentation tells you how to do it by 30%.
- Oh you need links in your breadcrumbs? We will not provide a working code example for that nested categories you needed, here take a dumb simple parentCategory/category example of linkless breadcumbs.
- You need a compare of catalog items? Alright, buy this, and you'll get a server-side-only ability to add/remove/list items in compare list, no code examples, no template examples, do EVERYTHING on your own.
- Want to know how to use our "useful" paid plugins in your frontend theme? You can download lame bootstrap theme, or buy $100 theme with one example of our filter plugin usage (not confirmed, I will not be surprised if not). Also import feature is very questionable.
- Want to import catalog items from CSV with images? Ok, we will duplicate your images once putting them into separate attachments storage and also as many times as you have to use the same image url. What, you already have an organized image hierarchy? Well, ***k you!
So for full bundle price you do not get a half of lame free opencart's functionality. This plugin is not the right choice to build decent eShop, at least for now (fall 2019). More than year have passed since I decide to try this plugin on one of non urgent projects and we still here. Maybe because only single person working on it, doing titanic work, so what did you expect? Hope they'll hire more people some day).

We're sorry for your poor experience with Shopaholic products. We're a small team of October CMS enthusiasts working hard on making it the best platform for e-commerce! ?️
Due to limited resources, the documentation isn't exhaustive some times. We know it. But there's a lot of ways to get the needed information:
- read the official documentation;
- read uncompleted new official documentation;
- explore the source code of the free Bootstrap theme;
- ask us for help in public chats (Telegram October CMS chat (rus), Telegram October CMS chat (eng), Telegram Shopaholic chat (rus/eng), Slack Shopaholic channel);
- ask us for help in social media (Twitter, Facebook, VK);
- add an issue on Github with the help request.
We're always ready to help when it requested. Unfortunately, we didn't receive any requests from your side.

You should have paid attention to the fact that no one official Shopaholic plugin has a
viewcode part (MVC). This is the main philosophy of the project. Headless e-commerce, you know! It doesn't put barriers in front of the developer in the implementation of the custom functionality on the front-end side of the project. Of course, this requires a higher qualification of the developer. But we work to reduce the entry threshold by providing NPM packages (shopaholic-cart, shopaholic-filter-panel, shopaholic-wish-list, etc.) for the products, extending the functionality of the free Bootstrap theme (as well as adding new themes including free) and on improving documentation, of course.Want to know how to use our "useful" paid plugins in your frontend theme? You can download lame bootstrap theme, or buy $100 theme with one example of our filter plugin usage (not confirmed, I will not be surprised if not). Also import feature is very questionable.
You can try out all of the plugins on the demo site (manager/manager) for free. We plan to switch the theme on it from UI Kit to Bootstrap one with the support of all of the plugins on the front-end. As for the import feature, I hope its description in the new documentation will be helpful for you.

Shopaholic provides a reliable and secure way to store product images. The answer to your question is here.
I mentioned the new documentation we're working on at the moment. It's open-sourced so we're open to merge any PR's with the additions and improvement. This is how open-source works!
As for technical stuff, we are confidently and responsible for the quality of architecture and any line of the code. While comparing the cost of Shopaholic with other major e-commerce platforms you should compare the cost of extending the provided functionality and the cost of the project ownership in the future.
Summing up, communication is the best way to solve issues! Please, find us in the public places I mentioned above and ask for help. We'll be happy to change your experience with Shopaholic! ?️

Great plugin. Especially good ecosystem of plug-ins, which has evolved and continues to evolve. Just setup what you need and save days and weeks of development. Faced with the need to refine part of the catalog for our needs - quickly received feedback and support from the developers. Well and the code, separately pleasure to read comments and the strict logic of classes. I wish my code was just as awesome)

Hi!

As you mentioned there are no available themes in October Marketplace at the moment. Our main focus in the next few month is growing of Shopaholic functionality. After that, we plan to publish a lot of themes from simple basis theme to ready for use fully customizable theme.
Besides, we help other developers to develop their own themes for Shopaholic ecosystem. Stay tuned!

Hi, the project looks promising, I read the code, it looks clean. . Do you have the shop theme / pages so people can quickly try to use shopaholic? The backend side are nice, the examples are working, but it lacks the frontend pages to at least we can place order, pay and watch order status. . 22/1/18.
