shop cart script
Hi,
i think to choose a shop cart to do local customize,
of course,i will disable(many) features and finally install it for my clients to use,
do you recommend any good open source shop cart script?
i hope it is stable/fast and bug-less.
thanx

osCommerce has been around for a while, seems to be pretty stable by now and used by a ton of sites

Opencart,
The reason is: it is easy to extend it.
Prestashop is also easy to extend but its expensive to buy extensions.
I am also developing in Presta/opencart and OScommerce and honestly the easiest and most powerfull e-commerce is opencart (in my opinion)

OsCommerce is a little poor in terms of functionality and in general its not so easy to customize (updating to newer versions is also a little too complicated imho).
Prestashop is quite flexible and offers many free extensions, not only paid ones.
OpenCart, as mentioned, and maybe ZenCart are not so bad options also, but I would personally go with Presta.

osCommerce has not been updated in a long time.
I would recommend OpenCart. I have used it. It is light and fast.
I would not recommend WordPress with a plug-in. Why would you use blogging software with an e-commerce add-on? Just use a program that was specifically written for e-commerce.☆☆☆ Cool Domain Names - DomainSale.link☆☆☆

Although I would always prefer to use an application, specifically designed to serve an exact purpose, I would have to disagree with you here
Many people are tricked into thinking that many applications are set to serve an exact purpose, when its a more and more common occurance for those scripts to be improved and polished to increase their flexibility. WordPress is a great example of that - originally advertised as a blog software it has surpassed this target a long time ago. With its countless plugins and constant help from the open source community the script has opened possibilities, which cannot be bypassed. I have seen online shops, business websites, social media projects and many more, where you cannot even recognize the script on the first look.
Again, I do value and always recommend scripts, premade to serve the purpose of the customer as much as possible, but WordPress is my "soft spot" so I couldn't overlook this comment██ www.WebHostFace.com where Service always comes with a smiling face!
