Permissions already set to 644 with the following checked:

Owner- Read and Write is checked (execute unchecked)
Group- Read is checked (write and execute unchecked)
Public- Read is checked (write and execute unchecked)

It should work. If it doesn't, check with your hosting company. However, try also 777.

It might sound weird, but I have met cases where FTP displayed different permissions than the correct ones. If you have CPanel and File Manager, check it through those.

I just tested out the code below. Only the first name and last name are passed to PayPal. The other fields like Address, City, State and Zip Code do not get passed to PayPal. Any idea why that is? It would be nice if all info is passed to PayPal.

?>

I found it better not to pass the email address as Paypal assumes your customer has a paypal account and doesn't dispay the name and address data but here it is incase anyone needs it

<input type="hidden" name="email" value="'.$_SESSION['email'].'">

It should work (works fine for me).

It does work for me. I'm having an issue with 1 of my PC's where the cart.php doesn't show in IE8 and when using FF the address wasn't getting passed on. I placed an order from a different PC and eveything is working like it should.

Any idea when you will be posting the update for the Advanced buttons?

Thanks George!

@ wacmaster: if you click on the View Cart, you will see:

Sub Total, €: 29.95
Taxes, €: 5.99
Discount, €: 0.00
Net Total, €: 35.94
Shipping, €: 8.00
Grand Total, €: 43.94

Which explains the amount.

Please note that the cart content appearing like this, is an extra that I have built in the demo but it is NOT included in the script you can download.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Fri Dec 24, 2010 6:09 am

Yes, you must upload the files on the server, but first, you need to READ the instructions. Everything is already included in the manual.

There is no meaning in asking questions online if you have all necessary instructions in the manual. Just open the Webshop Plus manual and read it please.

1. What do you mean "Swedish Language" ??

2. Did you setup the cart, through the Admin area ? Especially the Shipping Areas ?

If not, the cart will not work.

Swedish lang in: Administration login details

I still don't understand what you mean.

There is no language selection in the Admin area, so pls clarify what you mean.

IF you mean how to transform messages, titles etc in Swedish, pls click on "Script Details" and provide (in the fields) the Swedish translation of the messages / labels

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Tue Jan 18, 2011 6:32 pm

The cart page will be blank until you set the shipping areas : -> Admin Area -> Shipping Areas

Hi Naval

I have a customer who wishes to produce a printable invoice as well as the confirmation emails. I was looking at the script and the mails seem to be controlled from the 'thankyou' page so this leads me to think that I could simply alter the 'function SendEmail' section to send the merchant email in HTML format (in the form of an invoice). But I just want to check the solution below.

Would it be possible to tweak the form on the Thankyou page and include the form processor to add the details to a database that can then be used to print invoices. Looks possible but not sure if the two code sets will interact together.

I'm going to try it out this evening and just wondered if you could see any obvious problems I've missed.

I've also heard a lot about your Pro cart version and wondered if this is a feature available within it. It may be worth sugesting this route to the client.

Cheers

Hi Kevin

I have already used the form processor to send emails in HTML format as well as storing info in the database for a customer of mine that wanted a simple solution (but yet with HTML email and DB storage)

So the answer is yes although there is some (small) complications: you need to set the $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] to POST (otherwise the processor will not send any email) and you also need to create a dynamic template for the admin and the auto email (not the standard email templates that come with the DBTS Form Processor)

You can see this at http://dbtechnosystems.com/wb7/webshop_quote3

It has mixed english/dutch text . Go all the way to the end, and then click on the Submit offer button (as, in this case, it was optional) to receive the HTML email and see how it looks.

My Pro cart is database driven and has many features like Stock control, downloadable products, automatically created catalogues (full or per category), search feature, automatic or manual product page creation, customer registration in the database, shipping methods / calculations, mailer, members area, product thumbs in the cart and catalogues, and more. Of course, HTML email and Database storage of Orders, order details, and customer details, as well as Payment details (received from PayPal) is standard. Many of these features are optional and only available on customers request. However, being a cart that has a very limited market, it is custom made and as such it costs some mone.

You can se eit in action on Steve's site

kevinp · Post by **kevinp** » Fri Feb 04, 2011 3:09 pm

Hi Naval

I've decided to go with sending the Emails as html. Seems to fit clients needs better (he wants simple unlike his last cart) I've started by trying to define a table with the code below. I'm not a php guru but learning. I'll post (hopefully my solution) when I'm done.

Code: Select all

// create mail message to merchant
$subject = $mail_merchant_subject;
$title = $mail_merchant_title;
$footer = $mail_merchant_footer;
SendEmail($dbts_contactemail, $subject, $title, $orderid, $timestamp, false, $mail_merchant_footer);

function SendEmail($mailto, $subject, $title, $orderid, $timestamp, $maskcardno, $footer)

{
require 'admin/config.php';
require 'admin/paypal_settings.php';
   $header  = "From: ".$GLOBALS['dbts_title']."<".$GLOBALS['paypal_email'].">"."\r\n"; 
   $header .= "Reply-To: $paypal_email"."\r\n"; 
   $header .= "MIME-Version: 1.0"."\r\n"; 
   $header .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1"."\r\n"; 
   $header .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit"."\r\n"; 
   $header .= "X-Mailer: PHP v".phpversion(); 


   //New Code--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

// message
$message = '
<html>
<head>
<title>Invioce</title>
</head>
<body>

<table width="642" border="1" cellpadding="1" 
cellspacing="1" bordercolor="#000000">
<tr>
$message = "<td width="210">$title:</td>
</tr>
$message = "<td width="419">$alpha." $orderid " </td>"
$message = "<td width="419">$order_date_label." $timestamp " </td>"
$message = "<td width="419">$customer_info_label."." </td>"
</tr>

etc, etc, etc.

Steve. Its my wifes site but I do most of the marketing etc. If you just send a message through the contact form http://www.aivahealth.co.uk/contact.php.

Cheers

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Fri Feb 04, 2011 3:34 pm

Kevin,

your email header is wrong, as you need to send HTML email (not text/plain)

You can NOT do his in simple HTML, as you need to create a PHP loop, to loop through products and create as many table rows as the products themselves.

If you wish, contact me through my sitecontact form and I will send you the code I used for the html template so you can use it in your own code.

kevinp · Post by **kevinp** » Fri Feb 04, 2011 4:28 pm

Ahh. I had changed the header but the code I posted was not up to date.

I see what you mean about looping. I will contact you Naval. That would be very helpfull. Thank you.

Cheers

Yes, it will show, pls read the documentation, and look at the example product form that is included in the example project.

Hrankov · Post by **Hrankov** » Sun Feb 13, 2011 8:02 am

Hello friends,

because of usual procedures concerning Credit Carts like VISA, the guys want to see the LOG HISTORY.
It means, we need to establisg a MEMBER AREA, where at a special point of ordering, just after the Schopping Cart and the Customer Area the visitors need to Sign In with Username and Password. Something like this very FORUM Membership form with all option we see here - Register, Login, Logout, Change Password, Forgotten Passsword and so on.

The People fron VISA, Master Cart and all others handling with Credit Carts want to see the Login History, who was in contact with us, what he orders etc. because of security guarantees.

My problem: I nave no idea how to do it. There is no extesion for this case. The WebShop 2 is wonderfull, we used it to establich a Fine Arts Web Shop for very special modern artists from Bulgaria. If you visit http://shop.hrankov.eu you can take a look of the start of this project. Thanks to the creators of this extension, we are very happy with WebShop 2 indeed. I can manage it perfectly, but we really need this option too. Any help?

Best regards from Sofia

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sun Feb 13, 2011 8:48 am

I'm sorry, what you want is something that goes beyong the Webshop Plus capabilities. If they need also Order details in the Log History, then you need a full Database driven cart with customer registration section, customer login etc. All this is possible but not with the free Webshop Plus.

You need to either use a ready made cart (OSCommerce, Zen Cart etc) or a custom made like my own Webshop Pro (paid)

Please note that these requirements are rather anusual. CC companies usually only require that IF you hold the cc details on your server, you fullfill the security standard requirements they have adopted, but they certainly do NOT ask to have the order details , or have a customer registration area. Maybe you have misunderstood something ?

Hrankov · Post by **Hrankov** » Sun Feb 13, 2011 9:38 am

It is absolutelly possible, that I have misunderstood something. Most Banks have usulally they own interface for CC payments, we just need to implement it via iFrame in our Web Shop. But anyway I like to see how your WebShop Pro works, and need for all cases your Customized DBTS Logger, but let me first ask it he hold the Log History as a script too? It will be enaugh, I think so. How my I test your WebShop Pro (I do not have any exeriancve wit MySQL, so I preffer the PHP Version) and how may I recieve both products for wich price (via VISA pay service)? You may use my personal email to answer this qustions, if you preffer. - Email address removedPeter Hrankov

kevinp · Post by **kevinp** » Mon Mar 07, 2011 7:43 pm

Hi Naval

You kindly showed me how to add Country specific tax to the net cart value using the code below:

This is exactly the same issue as US residents: US sites apply taxes ONLY to residents of the same state where the company is.
Whay you can do:
Set the tax to be 0.

Ad these lines :

if($shiptocountry == $origin_country){
$taxes = $subtotal * 10/ 100;
}

just after

if ($tax_type == "unique") {
$taxes = $subtotal * $unique_tax_percent / 100;
}

where 10 (or whatever else) is the applicable tax percent.

But is it possible for it to be added to the gross value of the cart (including shipping) so that the tax for the specific country would be added to the total cart value.

I've played around with changing the $taxes = $subtotal to $taxes = $total but think I'm missing something as it failed miserably.

Cheers

Kevin

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Mon Mar 07, 2011 9:28 pm

Hi Kevin,

Out of town at the moment, I need to have a look to the code and I'll keep you posted. I'll be back tomorrow eveni ng.

kevinp · Post by **kevinp** » Mon Mar 07, 2011 10:29 pm

Thanks Naval. Much appreciated.

I’m not sure why but it seems common for the tax to be added to the whole cart value (including shipping). This seems to be a big alteration in the cart code from what I can see. Any pointers would be appreciated.

Cheers
Kevin

kevinp · Post by **kevinp** » Thu Mar 17, 2011 9:00 pm

Hi Naval

My client has reported a strange problem. On adding a product to the cart all is well, the product is added and the tax is added for Australian orders only with local rate shipping. When the user selects a country all this would change with the GST 10% removed and international postage removed but unless they click the recalculation button the tax and postage remain the same but they are allowed to proceed to the customer page.

Is ther e a way to require the customer to click the recalculate button if they change the country before continuing to the customer page? I tried using events to unhide the 'checkout' button until the recalculate is pressed but this simply disabled the recalculate button.

Or can the recalculate routine be added to the country selection as an onchange event.

Cheers

Kevin

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Thu Mar 17, 2011 9:18 pm

Yes, the best thing is to use a small Javascript and an "onChange" event to recalculate the tax, shipping etc and populate all fields with the correct values.

kevinp · Post by **kevinp** » Thu Mar 17, 2011 10:17 pm

Maybe I could call the recalculate function from ajax. I'll see what I can come up with with a visit to Google.

Cheers

kevin

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Fri Mar 18, 2011 6:23 am

Hi Kevin,

Using Ajax you can recalculate all the cart values and then repopulate the fields as necessary. But is it really worth it for a "free", basic level cart ?

kevinp · Post by **kevinp** » Sat Mar 19, 2011 9:51 am

Normally I'd agre, it's not really worth it for the standard cart but the problem is also present on the altered html mail cart and appears to happen with alarming regularity. People do choose their country but then click 'checkout' without using the recalculate button hence the tax and shipping are wrong resulting in somewhat of a mess. For my own site (where I've also made use of the cart) I'm in the process of going back to the mini cart option but unfortunately the client requires the html E-mail/packing slip so I'm kind of stuck with the current configeration.

Cheers

Kevin

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sat Mar 19, 2011 12:16 pm

Hi Kevin,

I'll see if I can implement an Ajax routine to automatically update the cart on country selection or, at least, to force cart refreshing.
I'll keep you posted.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sat Mar 19, 2011 3:00 pm

Hi Kevin,

kevinp · Post by **kevinp** » Thu Nov 17, 2011 8:19 pm

Hi ponderosaprinting/Naval

Would it be possible to use a Combobox instead of a textbox for the quantity. You could then set the values as you wanted e.g. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 etc. I'm sure I've used this method before, I'll look through my files and see if I can find it.

Cheers

Kevinp

UPDATE:

Yes it is possible. I found a site where I've used this method. Swap the Quantity text box on your form for a combobox with the same name. I'll try and sort out a demo.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Thu Nov 17, 2011 8:44 pm

Hi Kevin,

Yes, this is possible, BUT to change the price you need a Javascript that will change the value of the cart "price" hidden field (onchange event associated to the quantity selection).

Or, as I mentioned, an amendment to the code.

supersonictt · Post by **supersonictt** » Sat Dec 10, 2011 11:40 pm

Hello,

Sorry for this question (that might be asked before, I still haven't read all the thread, and I will do soon)...
There is a big possibility to re-design a website for a client, and everything is easy for me. The client wants to implement an online shopping system (his company sells sweets to international countries through the website and not locally).
What I want to ask is:
1. The webshop plus includes paying using Visa and Master card, is the transaction processed directly? I mean, does it have to be through a bank or something?
2. In order to protect the transaction, there should be SSL certificate, right?
3. His company deals with DHL to process the shipping, how can this be done? I guess it would be something like a form sent to DHL with the order details, am I right?

The company who designed his website made the purchases through 2checkout, so I don't know if I have to do the same when using webshop plus!

Thanks.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sun Dec 11, 2011 8:57 am

1. No, Webshop Plus does NOT inlude a Credit Card payent system, this is only for demonstration purposes.
2. yes, you would need an SSL Certificate plus a LOT more cecurity measures, to comply with the Credit Card Industry security Standards
3. You need to use a Ajax based script to send HTTP or XML requests to the DHL server with shipping info (that is, destination zip, weight and/or dimensions, desired shipping method (DHL has more than one) and receive back the shipping cost answer to include in the Orde amount.

Plus, you should consider that client most probably will need product and stock management directly online (not through WWB)

None of the above is included in Webshop Plus as it is intended for people that build their own shop and therefore they are able to manage products through WWB themselves.

You would need a Professional Cart for this, database driven and probably customized to a certain extend.

supersonictt · Post by **supersonictt** » Sun Dec 11, 2011 11:47 am

Navaldesign,
Thanks a lot for making things clear.
Concerning 1 and 2:
Someone can buy the product and pay using paypal as a guest (to use the credit card), so no SSL needed on the company side, right?
As i mentioned in the previous post, the company used to use 2checkout to process the order, i think it's kinda same as paypal, isn't it?
Thanks a lot.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sun Dec 11, 2011 11:57 am

Yes, it is similar. PayPal and 2checkout are actually payment gateways so they will accept creditcards on THEIR secure site, so no Credit Cards details are kept on your customer's website. No SSL is required, however, customers feel more comfortable giving their personal details (email address, name, address, tel number etc) on a secure (SSL) site

Im' sorry but it requires at least WB7 to open. f you look at the very start of the thread, you will see:

We have created a modified version of the WB5 Webshop. The modified Webshop allows you to manage all aspects of your cart without need to change a single line of code, as ALL possible changes are made through an Administration Interface.[/color=#000080][color] However it requires WB7 to open.

Now we ar in WWB and the last Webshop Cversion, v.3.0, requires WB8 to open.

Get a WWB8 license.

The effort you put in this webshop is amazing! I really appreciate the effort

As I can see, version 3 is still RC, any news about the stable release?
One last thing, I TOTALLY agree with you about CC payment method (needs SSL and other security measures), but what if a client asked for that, would it be possible? Is it hard to implement this (not you to do that, but me)?
Thanks a lot.

PayPal can accept payments through CC even without a PayPal account.

To accept CCs without PayPal, you would need to implement the (whatever you choose) payment gateway code. Not really hard, but requires some experience in PHP coding.

The current version IS stable, the final one (expected within 10 days) will have some more features and backend code changes. There is no reason why you can't start using it now and make the changes later.

Yes, I know that PayPal accepts CC payments without having a PayPal account, but that client is old-fashioned guy

We still haven't decided about his online shop, and I was just asking about the stable release as I like to have these things as a backup before doing anything.
Thanks for your time Naval Design, I really appreciate all the work you are providing for WWB users.
