Great Module, great support
(Posted on 5/15/12 by Christian) Excellent module. I had some customization issue and Alex fixed it within a day. -
Great for baby shops
(Posted on 5/15/12 by Sven) We're running a baby shop and really like this extension as a way to emphasize from average baby shops. It merges beautifully in out layout with a bit of css, pls. check it here:
http://j.mp/yh0uou
We've renamed it to "Wunschliste" (wishlist) but keep the Magento wishlist by renaming it to "Merkzettel" (notepad). So customers can have a really working wishlist for spreading their wishes whilst there is still a easy to handle notepad function (the former Magento wishlist) just for their own records.
Thumbs up for the great support which was fast and effective.
Btw.: If you like to fiddle with your list.phtml and view.phtml files (who does not?) pls. note that they (and some others) are overridden by phtml files in the babyregistry folder. -
Great module
(Posted on 10/10/11 by Oelie) Verry Happy with the module and the superb service. Keep up the good work. -
Yeah!
(Posted on 2/21/11 by Pops) I'm very happy with my shop's new baby registry. Looks and works great! They worked with my original design and had it up and running in no time with out shutting down my shop. Pleasure to work with and very patient when it comes to a client who wants everything to be perfect. I also recommend them for other customizations. -
Nicely Done!
(Posted on 2/2/11 by Colby) I had MagExtension install their Baby Registry extension on my site and I couldn't be more pleased... It's much more reasonably priced that similar extensions where you pay per product and in my opinion it's usability is much better than competing extensions... I'm not affiliated with them in no way... Im just a happy customer who has been burnt by other developers. If your looking for a registry solution for your site or even a custom extension... give these guys a call...
PS- They customized the extension to match the colors on my site... I'm posting pics to their FB page here:
