Heh heh, no worries. I tried to minimize the changes as much as possible, so I don't think compatibility with upgrades will be much of an issue.

Jon,

When I go to the MAKE PAYMENT Screen, my buttons at the top are not updating. It stays on METHOD rather than moving to payment.

V4.0.4.

Any suggestions?

Jon	10-02-2004 10:03 PM

Likely a step in the install instructions were missed, likely the assigning of a variable. Make sure it was all installed correctly. If you'd like to PM me login details I'll have a look.

I'll go through it again. I only deviated from the custom install in one spot, if I still have problems tomorrow, I'll PM what that deviation was and maybe you can tell from that.

Thanks.

Jon	10-03-2004 10:44 AM

It likely has to do with:

Code:

$smarty->assign("paymentid",$paymentid);

Make sure that is in the correct spot.

I just caught it now, but looking at the screen samples in the first post of this thread and confirmed by checking out in my store, order totals are not shown to the customer after login.

For those of you with realtime shipping and/or taxes, you may want to consider adding this into the templates. It's never good to have a customer hitting the payment submission screen without seeing an order total with shipping and taxes.

I will post back here or update Jon when I get the chance to look at this.

Jon	10-03-2004 09:36 PM

^ Yeah your right. Thanks for catching this. I'll have a solution coded and posted here asap tomorrow.

Jon	10-04-2004 07:46 AM

Here's the fix for people using realtime shipping. It will include the cart contents review, and shipping price, after login on the payment selection page.

I don't have a realtime shipping account, so please let me know if it works well and/or what improvements can be made if any.

Code for 4.0

Open /skin1/customer/main/checkout.tpl (after already modded with X-Easy Checkout)

Find:

Code:

{elseif $payment_methods ne ""}

After add:

Code:

{if $config.Shipping.realtime_shipping eq "Y"}



{capture name=checkout_dialog}



<FORM action="cart.php" method="POST" name="cartform">



<INPUT type="hidden" name="cart_operation" value="cart_operation">



{include file="customer/main/cart_contents.tpl"}



<HR noshade size="1">




{include file="customer/main/cart_totals.tpl"}











{if $js_enabled}

{include file="buttons/update.tpl" href="javascript: document.cartform.submit()" js_to_href="Y"}

{else}

{include file="submit_wo_js.tpl" value=$lng.lbl_update}

{/if}



</FORM>



{/capture}

{include file="dialog.tpl" title=$lng.lbl_shipping content=$smarty.capture.checkout_dialog extra="width=100%"}



{/if}

Code for 3.5.x

Find:

Code:

{elseif $payment_methods ne ""}

After add:

Code:

{if $config.Shipping.realtime_shipping eq "Y"}

{capture name=checkout_dialog}

<form action="cart.php" method=post name=cartform>



{include file="customer/main/cart_contents.tpl"}



<HR noshade size=1>




{include file="customer/main/cart_totals.tpl"}








{if $js_enabled}

{include file="buttons/update.tpl"}

{else}

{include file="submit_wo_js.tpl" value=$lng.lbl_update}

{/if}

</form>

{/capture}

{include file="dialog.tpl" title=$lng.lbl_shipping content=$smarty.capture.checkout_dialog extra="width=100%"}



{/if}

Looks great on 4.0.

Thanks Jon.

Jon	10-04-2004 11:24 PM

I've updated the product with the fix and created a new distributive, including both the 4.0 and 3.5 versions in the same download. Contact me by PM with your email and order# if you'd like me to email it to you.

Where' s my mod?

:evil:

I ordered this mod with installation and I've not heard one word from this person or his website. Not one email -- nothing.. not even a reciept from the cart. I did how ever get CHARGED by my credit card company.

I'm getting ready to reverse the charges on my credit card.

are you sure that your email account didnt automatically send the email to your junk filter? That happened to mine

Jon,

When you get a sec, can you look at the 4.0.5 login.php.

For some reason I can't login to admin now....

If you need me to shoot you a few bucks via PP, just PM me.

Thanks.

Jon	10-12-2004 06:45 PM

The code changed in login.php applies to:

Code:

if ($login_type == "C" || $login_type == "B") {

Which is the partner or customer login. The admin login is executed before this in the file, and should be be effected. May be a problem with the upgrade. If you PM me ftp/admin details I'll have a look at your situation in particular.

adpboss

10-12-2004 06:47 PM

I'll try to reinstall the mod on a fresh 405 file and if that still has issues, I will PM. Thanks for the fast response.

adpboss

10-12-2004 07:00 PM

YGPM in 2 minutes. Customer login doesnt work either.

I tried to figure it out, but I'm not that clever.

Jon	10-13-2004 07:47 AM

^ Looking now.

For those using 4.0.x (3.5 was posted earlier) who wanted to tidy up the "Please Wait..." page while the person is paying with paypal, you can do so like so:

open payment/ps_paypal.php

Find:

Code:

<table width=100% height=100%>

<tr><td align=center valign=middle>Please wait while connecting to PayPal payment gateway...</td></tr>

</table>

With:

Code:

<table width="100%" height="100%" ><tr><td align="center" valign="middle">

<font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="+1" color="#000000">Please Wait ...



 




We are transferring you to the secure Paypal server.

</font></td></tr></table>

You had an extra closing bracket "}" in the code you implemented there. It's working now :thumb:

THANKS.

Everyone buy this mod from Jon, because he has been a great man about supporting it.

If only x-cart would have more people like "Jon" on there side, his support is second to none, "Great work" everyone keep buying this mod.

Jon	10-13-2004 10:17 AM

Thanks guys :)

I am considering creating a "testimonials" mod if it hasn't been done already (haven't had time to look already) :D

I'd appreciate feedback/testimonials I can use for the checkout mod.

cotc2001

10-13-2004 10:32 AM

yes a testimonial mod does already exist on cartmods.com BUT I would not recommend buying anything from them.

see my thread on http://forum.x-cart.com/viewtopic.php?t=13536&highlight=

I think Jon needs to keep creating some mods since my sales had increase since I got his checkout mod.

Great work Jon.

Kind regards,
Ricky

Care to tell us by how much your sales have increased?

I'm on a bit of a tight budget but if need be I'll get this mod.

adpboss

10-13-2004 02:07 PM

Things like checkout mods, product listing mods or marketing mods are no brainers.

How many sales would it take to get the value back? How many sales will you lose to a confusing checkout?

theoverpass

10-13-2004 02:46 PM

Well thats what I'm wondering (how many sales I'm losing) so if any one can give me (even a rough) estimate of how much thone mods have helped, it would be greatly apreciated

Also I've herd of the marketing mod but what would be the recomended product listings mod?

adpboss

10-13-2004 02:49 PM

The only way for you to find out is to try the mod and compare your conversion stats for before and after.

Other stores may provide an approximation, but with different selling environments, products and prices I don't think that info will be much use to you. There are simply too many variables.

Jon	10-13-2004 03:02 PM

These are the types of testimonials I'm looking for :)

N2Performance.com for example has conversion monitoring software installed and said their sales have "doubled."

theoverpass

10-13-2004 03:06 PM

Hmm.. I guess it can't hurt to try it would really only take a few sales extra to make my money back and christmas is coming.

Jon	10-13-2004 03:19 PM

^ Let me know if my checkout process encourages you to buy once you start the process ;)

theoverpass

10-13-2004 04:08 PM

Haha will do,

One quck question is there any way to get rid of this step:
http://www.mixtapemp3.com/images/xeasycheckout4/4.gif its always been buging me, I'd rather they just fill out thier details choose a method and then do sent to (in my case) 2checkout or paypal.

Or is it possible to make it even fater letting them just select payment method and pay after they hit checkout rather then fill out thier details. (details would then be collected via payment processor)

Thanks

10-13-2004 04:17 PM

...Just bought it, can't wait to set it up and see how it goes.

If you wanted customer to skip that step your store could be custom coded to have that radio selection/submit work as the form submission on the payment page, which would then direct them to where they need to go, but it would make it diffficult to offer other payment methods, and you'd probably have to code backwards if you chose to offer alternate payment methods in the future.

If your interested in having custom work done PM me for rates and if you have MSN Messenger include your msn so we can talk if clarification is needed.

Also, let me know how you find the install/end result.

10-13-2004 08:54 PM

My cart... its beatifull

It was an easy and painless install

Thanks Jon :)

Jon	10-13-2004 10:01 PM

Glad to help :D

Mind PM'ing me a link to have a look?

Jon	10-14-2004 02:30 PM

I'm working on a mod to work with this mod.

It will add a step to the checkout page titled "Recommends" allowing the user to 1 click add products to their cart, based on what is in their cart already.

If you want any input on how this mod is created, I'm happy to hear it.
