Checking in on the world of Ubercart
Ubercart, the comprehensive shopping cart online store solution for Drupal, has been growing in leaps and bounds lately. They’re up to a beta 2 version for Drupal 6, which is being successfully deployed on many new Drupal e-commerce sites. I also took a recently released installation profile for a spin today, created by Commerce Guys, which starts you out with Acquia Drupal + Ubercart modules, all ready to go. According to a discussion thread, more is in the works. In addition, Commerce Guys and AF83 are doing Ubercart training in Germany (which will be using one of our e-commerce themes in its coverage of building an Ubercart site) in just over a week!
We’ve also just released two new Ubercart themes, with very different looks. Floristo is a clean, fluid width theme, with dropdown menus, either or both sidebars available, and our usual zillions (ok, so that’s not a technical term) of styled regions for block content. Luxe is a two-column theme with a rich palette, prominent banner image area, and elegantly styled product pages.
