Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

Thanks for pointing that out to me Doug:clap:
...I had copied the files in the template directory into my template directory instead of creating another template folder under my template directy.

On my Doodlebuckets site, if you are logged in, the shipping estimator doesn't show up on the shopping cart page. It does when one is not logged in though. I have trouble-shot and found that if I remove the Google Checkout code from the shopping cart page, then the shipping estimator displays properly. When the code is there, the Google Checkout button displays but then nothing below that button is shown, everything below it just breaks. Any fix for this? I have searched and haven't found any posts of those with my same issue. Thanks!

Desperate help needed. It seems a lot of people have asked this but no one has given a clear answer.

I can do test purchases with google checkout. No info ever comes back to admin. Emails from google go out but that is it.

I checked my error log and here is what i have:

Mon Aug 11 18:48:13 EDT 2008:- Failed to Get Basic Authentication Headers.

I have ssl and i am running in sandbox mode. please let me know what all the settings should be?

Oh when i use check the responder i get a pop up that askd me for user name and password.

Just need to get the info into admin!

I did everytrhing i was supposed to except:

Need to change permissions to 777 on ht access file . (I also changed ht pass tyo 777 as well. )

Then i used the link

http://www."your_domain_goes_here".com/admin/htaccess.php

I put in my Key and ID check create file and check directory.

hit enter or create.-- whamo- closed that window, test the GCO and everything works.

Don't forget - right away change those permissions back!

I will have to repeat this when i switch from the SANDBOX to PRODUCTION.:smile::smile:

I found all this out by re-reading the read me.

If I checked the Response headers and got this message

A username and password are being requested by https://www.nothingbutcostumes.com. The site says: "Google checkout Basic Authentication"

And Gives you the option for a login and Password.

What do I do next?

(you should be already marked true for CGI PHP in module install page optrion bar or what ever itsa called- in admin.)

if i use:

https://www.nothingbutcostumes.com/googlecheckout/responsehandler.php

I get trhe sign ion. That is good.

now change the permissions like i mentioned above to 777.

then go to url i gave (put your domain in there)

the screen will be white. fill in your stuff- ID and KEY etc.

hit create

that just wrote in your acess file. close it.

Also make sure in google checkout you have the setting for charge and auth immedialty somethuing like that.

do a test order. should be good to go-:smile:

not working for me.
I see the option to pay by GCO but i do not go there I just get payment method: GCO and when i do check out i'm back in the first page of the checkout process.
I read those threads indicated above so I re-checked the files and dirs:

1. my GCO tpl files are in includes/templates/MY_TEMPLATE/template
   there i have:
   tpl_checkout_payment_default.php
   tpl_gc_return_display.php
   tpl_gc_return_noproduct.php
   tpl_login_default.php
   tpl_shopping_cart_default.php
   tpl_time_out_default.php

2. I did this permission thingy even if was not getting any authentication err message <check>
   :dontgetit
   :dontgetit
   What can be the misplaced file(s)? Any suggestions?
   Thanks!

Thanks for the reply...

Just want to make sure I have your advice correct.

(you should be already marked true for CGI PHP in module install page optrion bar or what ever itsa called- in admin.)

Ok. I changed that. I had it to false...

now change the permissions like i mentioned above to 777. then go to url i gave (put your domain in there)

the screen will be white. fill in your stuff- ID and KEY etc.

hit create

Ok Did this before...

Also make sure in google checkout you have the setting for charge and auth immedialty somethuing like that.

Not sure what you mean by that... But I am getting orders. Its not getting into admin What do I do there?

If I test the Response Headers? What to I type in there for User and Password?

milo thats it, it should be working.

The google checkout option about automatic charge etc is basicly referring to this-

if you have to log in and choose charge on every order than you need to change the setting to automatic.

I believe it is GC-->settings-->preferences on the left

then choose

Automatically authorize and charge the buyer's credit card.
save.

that makes it so the order will come in as google processing in admin.

anyway here is how i can check if it is set up correctly.

check if htaccess is corect when all done if you type the url for responsehandler- and you put in your ID and Key and choose enter (i wouldn't check remember it!!!!) you should get something like:
Invalid or not supported Message- this is good because you are logging in to the responsehandler-

if the id and key were wrong it should just keep giving the pop up box like 3 times and send to you to:
Error 401 - Unauthorized
You failed to provide a valid account required for access to page.

if you get the error then I believe htaccess script created a file from incorrectly entered info. I spent 2 hours on that little problem.:censored:

so double check that the key that was entered into htaccess script containd all the numbers- ( i noticed i had copied and pasted and misseds a few digits and an underscore of my key because the box in zen was smaller thasn the number of characters in the box. that will definetly prevent this from working.)

I recommend copy and paste directly from GCO integration page and not from zen admin.

   It sounds like you have the button but the link doesn't go to google?

Ok I am Panic ing

When something was out of stock (Say in a size)
It would alert the customer with a red arrow at checkout

I think a code in this mod disabled it and the google checkout mod says

• Some products are Out of Stock

But does not show which ones are...

I need the old functionality back. What do I do?

Milo-
Sorry to here- I haven't encountered this problem. Is it designated only to the specific item in the cart? I would post right away you might have it fixed in a jiffy.

Did you get GC to show ordersd in admin?.

i see what you mean- if somone orders more than you have, or wants something that is sold out , then google C is grayed out.-

This is weird i have tried these step and when i switch the Google sand box for testing the order is transfered to admin just fine, but when i switch it back to regular check out it's not transferring to zencart admin.

When you switch to from saqnd box to production the KEYS are supposed to be different. The htaccess script has lines for id and key sandbox and then lines for id and key production. check that the keys are diff.

For me, everything is working. I can go to Google Checkout and process an order. But, nothing get updated on the Admin site still. Do you have to have SSL enabled/working in order for Google checkout to work? I set that piece up from one of the tutorials on this site, but Admin site still not getting updated. Any suggestions? Thx in advance for your help.

GC production requires SSL to work.

I have SSL set up on the Zen Cart side, but Admin section still not getting populated. Also, I'm new to setting up SSL. Do I only need to enable it in includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php files? I checked with my Web Host Poweb, and they said they don't need to do anything on their end to set anything up.

Also, should coupons be working with Google Checkout?

The keys are different, and i got it to work there is a 10-15 min delay between the data being transfered from google to zen admin so if you make a test you can't just refresh your admin you have to wait 10-15 because google allows the customer to cancel the order within that time frame before google begin to process so i was just moving a bit fast. I notice that when i went in to my test account i use for purchasing and saw that there is a cancel button on the order and it stated you can not cancel after 15 minutes. After that 15 minutes it's up to the customer to contact the seller in order to cancel the order.... if all that make sense, so yes your plan works fine and thank you for posting it

Nope....It's been 5 hours and nothing has shown up in the Admin section....I'm totally at a loss, and just about ready to give up, this is getting ridiculous now
