We are storing the history. One of the things I want to use it for later is "people who bought this, also bought that...." as well as the "your favourites".

Whats the point? Its not like waterstones where you may choose to buy a different book by the same author or from the same genre....

As its trade only, we 'the trade' aint gonna buy stuff on a whim because its been suggested, we will buy what we need imo

On things like boilers, it helps to cluster the flue accessories around the boiler. We have them as "linked products" but that requires maintenance by us. Once we get some good usage going, it should be self-managing.

Also, there are often several different products available which do the same or similar job. Our counter staff are often making suggestions, usually based on their experience of what other plumbers buy.

But if you don't like it, you can always ignore it. 🙂

Hi Linkyplumb

Sorry about that - it isn't just you, its doing it to everyone. Hence the "beta test" status.

The developers are working on it now, and I am trying to stop myself from calling every two hours to ask them when it will be fixed! 🙂

I will update this thread when we think its OK again.

Hi Steve

They are 155mm, so quite a lot fatter than an old fordham flushpanel. Wandering round the warehouse, I did stumble over an unboxed plastic cistern, side entry, plastic, about 110mm deep. I have no idea what it is, but it was still in its placcy wrapper, and had all the guts there. Let me know if thats any use to you.

Hi Steve

No problem, just checkout your cart (without the fat concorde cistern). I will work out what the unboxed cistern is tomorrow. Bearing in mind where you are, we will probably deliver in one of our vehicles.

My only concern is that the warehouse was dark when I was wandering round, and I might have missed something that was wrong with the cistern. But I will check it in the morning.

 

[PlumbBobBob]

cheers. is there choice of delivery day on the site?

We only really have next day and early next day.

But we can change the date no problem. Was it Thursday you wanted it?

Hi Ray are you still after site "problems"?

Yes please Matt, although we are aware of the seemingly random login/logout issue, which we are working on.

I was trying to throw together a quote and was unable to add stuff to my cart unless I drilled into the item first. Hope that makes sense

Yes, thanks Hybrid - thats happening for lots of people, and we are working on it now.

Billy - we are working on the bundles of tube at the moment, and have taken tube off for a while, because the units of measure was causing confusion, and we don't want to take an order for 3m of 15mm tube. There is no way that the carrier will get it there. Later we will add back bundles only for tube.
