A comment on the question "How can I import my data from Less Accounting?" in FreeAgent Central:

Hi Roan,that sounds like an idea worth pursuing.

What's the best address to contact you on, to discuss sending a sample of the xml export? – chris.d.adams, on March 11, 2009 15:08

How can I import my data from Less Accounting?

Hi there,

I'm currently using Less Accounting, but the UK specific features on FreeAgentCentral have really impressed me, as has the general level of polish through the whole app.

I'd like to import the data from it but I'm not sure how the data would map across.

Less Accounting provide a big xml export, but I don't see a matching importer for FreeAgentCentral.

What's the best course of action here if I want to move to FreeAgentCentral?

I agree with you to an extent - the more I use shopify outside of the shop remit, (i.e. galleries and blogs )the more I bump up against the limits of what it can do, and the more I find myself wishing for things that aren't there in the app, but using javascript to pull in the bonus functionality and features is looking increasingly feasible:

* twitter for microblogging
* get satisfaction for customer service questions, product ideas
* flickr for galleries
* discqus for comments on the blog (please, please, let us change the dates on the blog posts soon)

My main concern is the risk of dazzling a client with too many different tools for maintaining what they see as just one site.

Iamkeir, which third party plug in did you use in the end? I'd love to know.

Can we restrict discounts to certain products and collections of goods?

I'm using Shopify, and it would be really, really useful to apply discounts to products on a more granular basis than simply knocking 10% off the final total in the shopping cart.

Are there plans to implement this feature in the coming weeks?

Nice idea!

This may prove to be a nice hack...

Has anyone here tried to make a gallery using shopify?

I'm using shopify for a client's site, but I'd like to have a photo gallery feature on some of the pages, for clients up load pictures with.

The current image feature seems to be based exclusively for product photos, which is a different use case.

Anyone have any ideas how to implement this in a relatively user friendly fashion?
