    Hi,

    I would like to use WP eStore for a Pay-What-You-Want model like Humble Bundle. I got the JQuery working to set paypal “amount” when they click the buy button.

    The problem is when I get redirected to the Return URL that should show the download link for the digital product it says “Wrong Product Price Detected. Actual Product Price : 25Paid Product Price : 0.01”

    How can I resolve this issue so I can support a Pay-What-You-Want/Variable Pricing model?

    Nevermind. I figured that part out, WP eStore directly supports it :)

    Since I’m here, I have a follow-up question – on my sales page, I will allow buyers to specify the % of money that goes to charity. I am fine with Paypal directly buyer me the entire value and then I’ll give a % of the sales to the charity afterwards.

    However, can you tell me how WP eStore (or a different mechanism) can store the % to charity for each transaction? Although not ideal, I’m fine with the % to charity being e-mailed to me upon purchase.

    Thanks,

    Matt

    You could use the revenue sharing feature (the charity being the author) to keep track of the money that needs to be given to charity later:

    Thanks for the fast response. I read your link and it sounds like it allows one revenue sharing amount for each product.

    We only have a single product, but want every purchasing customer to specify what amount/% they would like to give to charity.

    Please tell me there is a way for WP eStore to do that. At the least, it would be great if WP eStore can e-mail me all the HTML form values it receives.

    One more thing – if there is an easy way to e-mail myself or store in a database all the data the WP eStore gets from the Paypal IPN that would be GREAT!
