As all requests to the Amazon Product Advertising API (formerly Amazon Associates Webservice) have to be signed since August 15th we updated SimpleAAWS and also the outdated com_aaws component for Joomla.

Customers may have already noticed that their SimpleAAWS and com_aaws installations are not working any more so please update as soon as possible.

Customers who use SimpleAAWS only have to update SimpleAAWS itself but not the components using it (like com_simpleaaws for Joomla, the standalone app or the wordpress plugin).

As sending mail was not successful, I try to answer your questions here:

> change the alignment from 2 column to 1
>
This can be done in the appropriate template, I try to add an example in the wiki in the next few days.
> create links to specific catergoies, subs and items
>
What do you mean by "creating" links ? Do you want a menu with your own links ?
> adjust grey background color between rows
>
This can be done in the appropriate template, I try to add an example in the wiki in the next few days.
> change cart and checkout out icons and ad text description
>
This can be done by setting a different images path or simply by overwriting the current icons with the same name in the used template, I try to add an example in the wiki in the next few days.
> use the browsenode.csv to customize desired catergories and sub
>
This is possible. You can remove a category if you do not want to use it. You can also change the starting node id.
> organize my desired subs into main cat and make their sub the new sub
>
This is not possible at the moment.
> is there a list of catergory and sub id numbers available
>
No, the categories are not ordered strictly hierarchically at amazon, so I think it is not possible. You can only get them by browsing my site for example.
> create a custom catergory with selected items, not all items
>
No, it is not possible at the moment. The only way to select items is by adding a searcg string.
> create the link like joomla books, joomla link type you used, syntax
>
It is just a link menu item with the appropriate search link, I added a menu item with the link http://affilimania.net/?v=aawsarticles&s=Books&k=Joomla&option=com_simpleaaws&view=simpleaaws directly, for example
> is the SimpleAAWS menu for displaying the entire store only
>
I think I did not understand this question completely. What else should it display ?
Joomla SimpleAAWS Customization

This has a lot of potential but the customization seems limited or documentation sparse.

Installed easily.

Can you, what and how (Joomla):

change the alignment from 2 column to 1

create links to specific catergoies, subs and items

adjust grey background color between rows

change cart and checkout out icons and ad text description

use the browsenode.csv to customize desired catergories and sub

organize my desired subs into main cat and make their sub the new sub

is there a list of catergory and sub id numbers available

create a custom catergory with selected items, not all items

create the link like joomla books, joomla link type you used, syntax

is the SimpleAAWS menu for displaying the entire store only



I think many might use your solution with deeper documentation and customization so we can build a true niche store.

I would glady give 5 stars if the customization was available but I need to adjust the appearance and have some control over menu names and where they go, catergories. I think you can do most of what I asked but I don't have days to experiment exspecially when sharing 6%.

That said, this has a lot of potential and I don't mind sharing the wealth if this works well and support is professional otherwise hiring a programmer is a better solution.

What is the current feature set and expected?
Can you provide syntax examples?

Thanks and much success
