CCBill HTML Link from External Site

[ellie123]

Can someone tell me how I can take this shortcode:

[wp_eStore_buy_now_for_specific_gateway id=”1″ gateway=”ccbill” button_text=”Buy It Now” id=2]

And make it into an HTML link so I can put it on an external page and the item will either show up in the shopping cart or take the user to the checkout page? I’m not picky…at this point I’ll take what I can get.

Ideally, I’d like to add to cart, if I had a choice….

Thanks for the help!

Hi, please try the “Add to Cart” text link method and see if it works for you:

Hello –

Yes, I tried “http://www.MYDOMAIN.com/?wp_eStore_buy_now=1” and it keeps taking me to the Paypal pymt page….not CCBill

Any other ideas?

We have just added this feature to our extra shortcodes addon. Please donwload a new copy of the extra shortcodes addon then you will be able to make a buy now text link for any gateway.

The usage instruction has been updated so you know how to use it:

hi there – thanks for the info, but when I follow your link above it takes me to the post and instructions from a year ago. I think downloaded the “updated” extra shortcodes but the PDF doesn’t seem much different than what I had before.

I’m going to compare code by code now and see if I missed anything…Can you tell me what date you released the new version?

I need a text link to display the users shopping cart and I need a buy now text link…both for CCBill. That’s what I’m trying to get…

Thank you!

You can get both of those things you need. The shopping cart for CCBill was already there. We added the buy now text link feature for any gateway (including CCBill) recently. So if you read the full post (see my link above), you will see a section that explains how to use the buy now text link with a gateway of your choice.

*PLEASE NOTE: To Admin – I did read your post(s) in its entirety several times, and that’s why I posted a screenshot so you could see that I had the code correct. However, we now know the problem was not the code, it was that the updated version of the shortcodes was a cached copy…so no matter how I put the link in, it wasn’t going to work.

To anyone else that is having this problem…from the paragraph above you see why it was not working.

So, if you’re having the same problem, be sure that you are indeed getting the updated version. I had no way of telling that was my problem, until admin looked at my site and sent me an email with the new update.
