Thanks guys great work.

One small request, the checkout page includes a paypal 'sign-up' section is it possible to go to the 'normal' checkout page instead?

Regards

Paul

Afternoon uniformality dont know if this can be done, we have only used the original script by the author to build the extension and this is how he uses the script to display the checkout page using the javascript maybe kev can answer you more on this as he was the original builder of the extension I only gave input to help fix the cart position on page and added a couple of extras to enhance the extension...

Hi uniformality. This behaviour happens because the 'cart' function has already happened on your web page so you effectively just visit the PayPal site to make the payment either by PayPal account (hence the log in) or by debit/credit card.

This is pretty much controlled by paypal so not 100% sure if what you're looking for is possible but I'll try out a few configerations and see what I can come up with.

Hello
Bravo for the important work done on this expansion!
Is it possible to create a quick tutorial for those like me who can not understand how to set this new expansion? :oops:
I tried all night to find the solution but I can not, my problem is with all options "Click to modify this property"
I am sure this plugin is installed because when I add a paypal button simple "add to cart", it works and the amount is displayed in the window of the paypal cart.
Thank you in advance for your help and sorry for my bad english language!

Best regards,
Mandrake.

Bonjour Mandrake I will try to write a pdf tutorial later today or tonight to explain the new functions to the extension and hopefully this will explain it for you and other users.

Adding tax or shipping just set the input value for both example below shows shipping cost please note this will not get displeyed in the cart but will show at checkout....

Image

Spacing you own buttons take a look at the line of code below the highlighted part in red you can increase the size ie 110px, 120px to space your own button....
<input type="image" src="images/view.jpg" align="top" style="position:absolute;left:100px;top:90px" border="0" name="submit" alt="view cart" class="button" value="View your cart" vspace="4">

Changing postion of text this would require redoing the form code in the extension to allow positioning that you need at this time I cant work on the extension to do this maybe at a later date or maybe Kevin can take a look at this if he has the time...

Posted: Thu Jun 17, 2010 10:34 am

Yes but you will have to modify the minicart.js manualy to do this open the minicart.js file in any html.text editor and look for line
var shippingNotice = createElement('span', 'does not include shipping & tax', please note I havent tested removing this so I cannot say if this will effect how the cart works.... in place of the line of text you wish to remove you could add in its place.... "tax & shipping added at checkout"

Please clear your temporary cache this is probably storing a copy of the old script, html etc...

Posted: Thu Jun 17, 2010 11:39 pm
by BaconFries
Then this is probably because you are still loading the original js file when pre-viewing the extension, the modification can only be done when you are ready to finally upload to your server where you will then see the changes made in the minicart js...you cannot make the changes then preview again in WB as this will always load the embeded minicart js that loads with the extension this will always over right any changes made manauly....

You sure it not there take a look in currency code (NZD) is in between NOK and PHP in the drop down of currencies...

Sorry this is not possible with the extension... to do this it would need another drop-down option added to allow the user to be able to select the shipping costs that you have for the items for sale.....

I'm having a problem trying to figure out how to offer 3 options of the same product (dropdown).

For example: red shirt, blue shirt, green shirt - all the same price of $15.

Item Name Settings
Item Name Settings / Name or Item Number
item_name / Blue shirt
item_name / Red shirt
item_name / Green shirt

Input Value Settings
Option Select / Input Value
option_select0 / $15.00

Amount Value Option Settings
Value / Option
15.00 / Blue shirt
15.00 / Red Shirt
15.00 / Green Shirt

With this configuration, no matter what color option I choose in the dropdown, it always sends the Green Shirt option to the cart (last entry in "Name or Item Number"). I think I'm doing something wrong in "Option Select". I'm not sure what "option_select0" means. Anyone have a suggestion?

Hi BaconFries

I read it and it really helped. For some reason though I am having a hard time wrapping my brain around employing different categories to be sent to the cart. I get them in the dropdown no problem, but when I preview the page it seems no matter which dropdown option i choose to send to the cart, it only sends the last item listed in the Item Name Settings > Name or Item number.

Can you explain what option_select_0 is and what it is supposed to match? I have a feeling the problem is there. I have option_select0 under "Option Select", and $15 under Input Value. Since all three of my dropdown options are the same price (just different color), do I need to modify this?

I appreciate your advice.

I am going to use this on a site i'm building, I'm not using the extension but instead just the code from the site. Have everything working, but the window is behind all my content. Any idea how to get it to show on top of my content?

Re: PayPal Mini Cart

@iamafireman insert the code below in Page HTML between<head></head> tags* set the z-index to what you require but I think 100 should be enough....

Code: Select all

<style type="text/css">
#PPMiniCart {
position: relative !important;
z-index: 100 !important;
}
</style>

Do you have any clue how to do so?

Hi supersonictt I havent use the extension for some time now, what version of the extension are you trying to use the version that I supplied Ken with or his? I memory serves me correctly with mine there is two settings for the left/right one needs to be set to L for Left and the other set to Left and vice -verus for right.

@BaconFries

The version am using is the one that doesn't have the combo boxes and extra settings (as reading this thread, he has two version, the very first one which am using and the second one has combo boxes and more complex settings).
The version I have has L and R, but whenever I set it to R it doesn't appear on right, it always appears on the left. And you mentioned that you had the fix for that, could you please let me know how you did it?
Thanks.

You need to replace the old version with the updated one by Bacon Fries from this link

Well, in the same old extension, it was only the cart pinned to the top of the page, and I used the built-in add to cart button to show the cart.
Now in this newer version, it has combo boxes and other stuff (quantity...) that I found hard to setup, so I guess there is no way to remove them, right?

Thanks for your work on this ext.It would be really good if you could make the cart appear to the right by default as surely this is the accepted convention for most similar carts - I don't know of any that hover/stick to the left. It just doesn't feel natural nor intuitive to be on the left.

Our commercial "PayPal Mini Cart" Release http://www.mjh-software.org/wwb-extensi ... rce-02.php allow this to set via Display Edge - The edge of the page the cart should pin to. Set to left or right.
