Sharing or Publishing Wishlists

I have been playing with the wishlist implementation functionality which I rather like. But, one feature that I would like to see (or have yet to find in the current ) is the ability for a user to show their wishlist to others. It appears that the user has to be logged in to see their own wishlist. While this makes sense in regards to adding an item to a wishlist, I think it also makes sense to provide the user with the ability to publish their wishlist for family and friends to see, much like Amazon's implementation. This is really useful functionality for retail sites.

So, am I missing something, or is this not possible at the moment? Would it be possible to fetch the information based on the user ID?

Thanks,

Alex

Hi, Alex

I`m sorry for off topic but is there any IRC server where we could talk about eZpublish ;-)? Where we can meet developers who works with eZ publish every day?

Hi Joe, I'm afraid I am still awaiting an answer to the same question (the one at the top of the thread), as I too want the capability to publish/share wishlists. As the eZ systems crew hasn't responded, nor have others more knowledgeable with the system,I am beginning to wonder if it is currently possible. It may require a new extension, which sadly, I don't have time to build right now.

Alex (or anybody else),

Is there any documentation out there on how to actually implement a working wishlist?

I sort of got it working by adding the following code to the standard product template:

        <form method="post" action={"content/action"|ezurl}>
            <input type="submit" class="defaultbutton"
                   name="ActionAddToBasket" 
                   value="{"Add to basket"|i18n("design/base")}" />
            <input type="submit" class="defaultbutton"
                   name="ActionAddToWishList" 
                   value="{"Add to wishlist"|i18n("design/base")}" />
            <input type="hidden" name="ContentNodeID" value="{$node.node_id}" />
            <input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectID" value="{$node.object.id}" />
            <input type="hidden" name="ViewMode" value="full" />
        </form>

This will add items to the user's wishlist, but it leaves me with two questions:
1. Items always show up as costing $0.00 in the wishlist (3.5.0). Is this a bug I should report, or am I just missing a field somwhere?
2. Is there a way to store options in the wishlist? I.e. if a tee-shirt has S/M/L/XL options, I'd like to be able to store the XL option in the wishlist.
