Hello. I installed the checkoutpaypal module, and I have 2 questions if you dont mind please. I tried to search the forums for this but could not find anything.

Once a customer pays for the picture, does the customer get a link to download the picture? The Full Size? Or how does the paypal module work on that part of it. Sorry I never used this, and not sure about it, and would be good if the customer does get a link to download.

And 2, how does the payment option work. The paypal option, when U set it to live, does the customer use his/her paypal account to pay? Or a credit card?

I am sorry for the newbie questions, but was just unsure of this, so want to make sure I got the proper information for this.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME...

1. this functionality is not available yet. turnbulm, the man in charge of work over this module is very busy at the moment, but we all hope it will be ready some day.

2. You can use sandbox of paypal to see how it works. customer can either use paypal account to pay for his sellection or use his credit card via paypal engine (without having account).

activate all your modules and set sandbox account at paypal. note, in sandbox - no real transaction takes place.

kind regards, Chris

Kerryman - you are pretty good at the subtle (?) hints of features I've promised but not yet delivered!!! Indeed, the download link is a key one for me personally as well, so it is way up the list of things I want to get done ASAP.

Regarding PayPal the best thing to do is to play around in the sandbox so you get to understand how it works. You will have to use real credit card details as the sandbox does the same validation as the real engine, but no transactions will be charged. It's also worth noting that once you've registered a particular credit card number against a PayPal account, you can't use that same card number for "unregistered" purchases anymore. I think this is some kind of anti-fraud measure on PayPal's side.

Take a look at the codex (http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:Modules:checkout) for a little bit more information on what you need to do to use the PayPal sandbox (there are links to the bits of PayPal where you will have to sign up for a developer account).

turnbulm, sorry if that annoyes you. I just wanted to help a little bit. I understand you were busy and after all sometimes it seems people think it's your job to provide support for checkout or something. expecting so many things at once :)

No problem - it doesn't annoy me, its a good reminder of just how far behind I am on these features :(

found this in paymentComplete.inc
class PaymentCompleteView extends GalleryView {

/**
* @see GalleryView::loadTemplate
*/
function loadTemplate(&$template, &$form) {
global $gallery;

/* First, empty out the shopping cart */
$event = GalleryCoreApi::newEvent('GalleryCheckout::emptyCart');
list ($ret) = GalleryCoreApi::postEvent($event);
if ($ret) {
return $ret->wrap(__FILE__, __LINE__);
}
so i think write here first load the ZIP module and then empty the shopping cart

can anyone write this plugin??

Although it doesn't come with a 'Download link upon payment completed' function, there is an advanced PayPal module available at http://gallery.menalto.com/node/61732

@helaku
the code i've posted ist from this module.

No download after payment. The searchmodule of this forum brings lot of post where users want a download after checkout (checkout by email or checkout by paypal) so when anyone change some code in this module (before cleaning the shoppingcard run the zipcart module) many peoples where happy.

i can not do this because i can't programm php

Any news on the download functionality for 'checkout' module? It appears the cart+download functionality is close but not there yet...

Perhaps it'd be easier to just merge the paypal module into the zip download module for the normal 'cart'... thoughts, ideas, suggestions?

Does anyone know if you can get around this problem by using gallery embedded in Drupal and then use Drupal's eCommerce module for gallery items? Has anyone tried that?

Thanks!
