@darkmatter, I did a little brainstorming on this and found a few obstacles so this is not going to be a very quick and easy implementation. I will implement something in the future but don’t want you to be waiting on it for now. I have sent an email to you.
In the settings menu of the “Simple Shopping cart” plugin you can find a field called “Shopping Cart title”.
If you don’t know where the settings menu of shopping cart is located then see this page:
http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/ecommerce/wordpress-shopping-cart-additional-resources-322
Nope “Buy Now” buttons can’t add to the cart. If you can add the item to the cart then it wouldn’t be a “Buy Now” button anymore… it would be an “Add to Cart” button.
Remember the text of the button do not mean anything. It’s the type of the button. Button type “Add to Cart” means that the items can be added to the cart. “Buy Now” type buttons means it’s a one click single item purchase.
When you use the subscription system the value entered in “Product Price” field has no effect as all the subscription values are set in the “Subscription Details” section of the product. However for verification you just need to set the “Product price” to a value that is lower than the value set in the “Trail amount” or “Recurring amount” field.
So in your case if you set “0.01” it will work fine (remember this value does not indicate that the customer will be charged a total of 0.01). Let me know how you go.
1. WP eMember doesn’t have any option to create random username and password and send it. Most people don’t like to have random usernames and password so it was implemented in a way that gives the member the ability to choose their own usrname and password. However, it is possible to tweak the code to achieve what you are after (you will need PHP coding knowledge for this though).
2. eStore sets the IPN notification URL dynamically based on the site the plugin is being used from. So you should be able to use the plugin on multiple domains with one PayPal account.
3. WP eMember has be updated so it reads the role from WordPress rather than assuming the 5 default roles. I have a feeling that this update should make it so it works with a “Role Manager” plugin. I have emailed you an update.
LOL… yeah creating a shortcode that displays the download now button with with name, thumbnail image and description (similar to the fancy display) shouldn’t be too hard. I will add it in. If I forget then feel free to bump this post to remind me
Remember, to give a free product with another product all you have to do is create one zip file that has both the products and use that as the downloadable item.
“How do I get them to be signed up with aWeber?” – Have you checked out this documentation page:
Please checkout the following URL to learn eMember integration (so a wordpress account is created for the user upon payment… don’t forget to enable the wordpress user integration from the settings menu of eMember):
“is there a way to test this in the PayPal sandbox?” – The following documentation will answer this question:
How to Test the WordPress eStore to Make Sure Everything is Working Properly
“I went live, thinking that all is OK” – I am not here to tell you how to run your business but it is always a good idea to test the system after you set everything up before going live.
All you have to do is use the shortcode that displays the shopping cart at the top of the page… this way when someone adds a product it will be displayed at the top of the page.
If you want the page to open a new window when someone hits the “Add to Cart” button then search for the following in the “wp_shopping_cart.php” file:
$replacement = ‘<object><form method=”post” action=””
once you find the line replace it with the following:
$replacement = ‘<object><form method=”post” action=”” target=”_blank” style=”display:inline” onsubmit=”return ReadForm(this, true);”>’;
“Blonde leading the blonde” – we are on dangerous ground here
LOL… I will look into adding the thumbnail of the product in the “Manage Products” page so you can identify the product easily.
Okay when I copied and pasted the code I made a little mistake
The following line should not be in the “eStore_payment_submission.php” file:
$this->debug_log(‘Awarding JROX affiliate commission.’,true);
That line is in the “paypal.php” file to output information to the debug file.
“Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()” – This means your server is using a older version of PHP and can’t handle “UTF-8” decoding (this is needed for other languages).
Removing the “Additional Product Details” is not the best solution. Please contact your hosting provider to update your PHP version to the latest (you should do this for security reasons anyway).
If you can’t get your hosting provider to update your PHP version to the latest then let me know and I will give you a proper workaround.
Hi Brownie, I am not a big fan of telling people that my products are the best and everything else is not good
I don’t believe that there is one product that will fit everyone’s need. So which one is the best for you? It depends on your situation… you kind of have to come up with a list of functionality that you want from a membership plugin then find the one that suits your need.
With that said, WP eMember doesn’t have any IP address restriction feature. We have plans to add a feature so you (the admin) can restrict shared login access. So eMember won’t work for your needs at the moment
Update: eMember now has IP address restriction feature.
In the “eStore_payment_submission.php” there is a place for awarding commission to “WP Affiliate Platform” so search for the following comment in that file:
//Award Affiliate Commission
and replace the commission awarding of “WP Affiliate Platform” to do the JROX Affiliate awarding. The following bit of code should do it.
$sale_amt = $_SESSION;
$trans_id = “”;//Use some unique ID
$jrox_cookie = $_COOKIE;
$JAMIntegrate = file_get_contents(“http://www.mydomainname.com/affiliates/sale.php?amount=”.$sale_amt.”&trans_id=”.$trans_id.”&custom_mid=”.$jrox_cookie);
$this->debug_log(‘Awarding JROX affiliate commission.’,true);
There seem to be a bit of communication gap here.
The title of this forum thread is “PayPal form in new window” and the goal is:
“After hitting the checkout button, I’d like to open the paypal form in a new window if possible”
Now if you click on the “Checkout button” from the shopping cart you will see it opens the a new window for the paypal payment. So from my point of view it’s doing what I thought you wanted it do.
But now you just posted:
“The shopping cart still appears at the bottom”
The shopping cart is going to sit where you want it/place it on a page. So my question to you is what are you after?
