Please keep in mind that every merchant has their "wishlist", and we definitely want to consider everyone needs, but at the same time need to give priority to those features that will bring benefits to most merchants. This is the main reason to have an UserVoice site so we can start with the features needed with more votes.

I personally haven't found the UserVoice site very functional and I know that others agree.

- For many stores, offering this at the product level makes sense, especially when you cannot offer Gift Wrapping on all products. This 3dcart store is a good example of offering Gift Wrapping that way, A Fresh Italian Equestrian Square Silk Scarf with Pink Bits and an Orange Border at Zia Moda You don't need to add the option for Gift Wrapping to every single product, you can add these options to the CATEGORY and these will display automatically on all products under that category (That's right, 3dcart has Category-wide Product Options, another exclusive feature).

If you don't charge extra for Gift Wrapping then you can simply add a Checkout Question.

I see this as a professionalization question. Most of the big sites I shop on offer gift wrapping as a paid option at checkout rather than on a per-item basis. I actually had it as a template giving an option on a per-item basis and it dropped sales because making it a mandatory option (i.e. yes or no) confused customers and drove them away.

- Unfortunately I have to disagree on this one, I really don't like that particular checkout process, and the flow is not really a "single-page" checkout, you have to finish each section to move to the next one, it's similar to a multi-step checkout with a tab layout.

I really, really disagree with this one -- whether it's a fairly comparable competitor like BigCommerce or Magento or a really big shopping site, this is the trend I see these days -- it may not be quite the "single page" see everything all at once, but it looks much, much better graphically and flows very well on the page without having to click through to a new page.

- You can add unique product identifiers when using Advanced Options, the field is there and many merchants use it for the UPC. The actual issue is that options are not automatically included in the Google Base Feed and that's one of the features that we're already working on.

The sooner the better on this one. Not being able to upload all my products and product options to Google is HUGE. I really hope this gets updated soon.

Quirkybaby, we have overcome the gift wrapping issue by creating a nice button on the shopping cart saying "Add Gift Wrap". Then we created a separate listing template for the Gift Wrap product. This product has options for entering message, etc. The page was designed to avoid confusion. Another button sends the customer back to the shopping cart after adding the gift wrap to the cart.
It would be great if there was a way to code that one Add to Cart button to send the customer back to the cart (if anyone knows how to do this, please chime in).
I agree it would be nice to add gift wrap without leaving the shopping cart, but we have not had any complaints.

As a side note, we also like order level gift wrap instead of product level gift wrap. We think the latter creates too much confusion.

I know I've seen your site before, but can you link it again so I can see how you do it? I offer baby products so having gift wrapping options is huge for me (and I offer several types of paper so I have to have the ability to show images of those).

Here's how I have it right now, as a product that's listed under all categories for which gift wrap is available, but I don't think it looks good to have gift wrap as a product under a category.
