What Wishlist module does

'Wishlist' is a module that allows the users of your store to keep wish lists. A wish list is a place where a customer can add and store product titles and detailed info of the products that he or she intends to buy in the future.

Note: Wish list functionality is available only to registered customers.

Adding a product to the wish list does not mean ordering it. The idea is that, by entering a product into a wish list, customers make a reminder for themselves to buy it at a later time or give their friends an idea for a gift.

A registered customer can add a product to the wish list directly from the page on which the product is displayed (a Products list page or a Product details page). To add a product to the wish list, the customer only needs to click the Add to wish list button below the desired product.

Wish lists associated with specific user profiles are saved in the database the same way as registered customers' cart info is saved and stored, so after logging into the store next time a wish list owner finds his or her wish list intact and can quickly order the products contained there.

Keeping info about the desired products in one list saves a customer's time and effort. When a customer decides to buy a product found at the store on a previous visit (provided the product was saved to the customer's wish list), he or she does not have to go through all the categories again or bother to formulate keywords for the search engine: all the customer needs to do is click the link Wish list in Your cart menu, find the necessary product in the Wish list and add it to the shopping cart.

It is possible to view the detailed description of any product in the wish list, edit the options with which the product is selected, update the number of product items desired and add the product to the shopping cart directly from the wish list.

If necessary, the entire wish list can be sent by email to any address provided by the wish list owner.
