MarketPress: features requests and some bugs

    I played around with MarketPress Lite v2.1.6, and I like it, but there is some important functionality missing:

    – No support for multiple currencies, i.e. US customers see prices in dollars, while European customers see prices in Euros (preferably with an option for automatic updating of exchange rates, and/or allowing the customer to switch between currencies)

    – There’s no way to bulk-change multiple product data such as price, sales count (so you can zero it out at the end of the year), stock number, etc. For a serious online store with hundreds of products. These bulk actions are a must.

    – Products list cannot be sorted by columns other than name.

    – There’s no way to export sales data to a spreadsheet.

    Is this functionality present in the commercial version of MarketPress?

    I also found some bugs:

    – Product counts are buggy. For example, a category with 4 products displays a product count of 20.

    – The category widget does not work when it’s set to display as a drop-down menu. The menu opens and the links work, but it shows no products available for the category (even though there are).

    Some clarification about the Product Categories widget display bug.

    If the widget’s Show as dropdown check box is checked, then it creates a URL such as:

    https://www.mysite.com/?product_category=47

    which results in an empty page with the message: No Products

    If the widget’s Show as dropdown check box is not checked, then it creates a URL such as:

    https://www.mysite.com/store/products/category/my_category

    which successfully displays a page with the products of that category.

    Found another bug: in the products list in the admin area, if you click on the Product name column (in order to sort the products by name), the first product on the list will not display its name; instead it will display the category name.

    For example, if we have a single product named “MyProductName” belonging to the category “NewProducts”

    Clicking on the Product name in the products list will show that this product is named “NewProducts”, instead of “MyProductName”.

    Hi I’m having a difficult time sorting my products. I don’t want to sort it by ascending or descending names or all the other choices like dates and such. I want to sort by category like: Feather earrings together and feather extension all together. Or I would like to have a heading in the product page to separate them from the rest. How can I do this?? Is there a plugin for this??
