I am working on a type of advanced profile (actually zipped site and sql dump) that will enable others to get Drupal and Ubercart 2 up and running within minutes.
You can see and USE the demo at http://ubercart.venturacottage.com Out the box it has been configured to handle:

  • Physical products (that are shippable)
  • Downloadable products (pdfs, mp3s, zips etc) 
  • Premium content (access to chargable nodes)
  • Dated products (events, conferences, training sessions) with optional separate enrolment form
  • Products with different attributes (eg small, medium, large)
  • Selling time as a product (eg consultancy, counselling etc)

Please give it a try (using the test creditcard details that appear when you checkout) and at the same time leave comments (at the bottom of the test order form) about anything that you feel I have left out. It is now available from my store online

I have included an admin page with step by stem instructions on customising the final few settings to suit you eg:

* Update contact email at /admin/store/settings/stock
* Alter to suit at admin/settings/site-information
* Go to admin/store/settings/payment/edit/gateways > Test Gateway settings - currently enabled, very useful whilst you are testing the site but remember to turn off before it goes live
In API credentials section > If you are using PayPal Credit Card > Enable and put in your proper setting ..... etc etc

I look forward to hearing from those who like me wanted to use Ubercart but were put off by its apparent complexity
