Allow merchandise to be sold online (ecommerce)

I'm really surprised this isn't in here already, and if it is, please consolidate.

Altru really needs to be able to allow merchandise items that are available for purchase in the store/gift shop to be available for on-line purchase. This ecommerce site is a pretty basic need, and could use existing inventory, price fields etc. Ideally, a checkbox field would be included for each type of merchandise item to 'sell on-line' and it would automatically appear in an ecommerce area of the website.

This would greatly help those sites that are  trying to use a 3rd party application to do this, which is something that we are trying to avoid. It was also mentioned during our sales process that this was on the road map, but seems to have been dropped.

    Yes, this is a sticking point for us as well.

    This is one of the biggest gripes we have against Altru. We're forced to use a different system for selling merchandise online, and then getting that info somehow back in to Altru is both time consuming and prone to error. I don't know why this isn't a higher priority.

    Yes, please add. Kinda silly and very counterintuitive that it's not an option.
