Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

Where is the Google Checkout sidebox? I looked in the d/l section and could not find it.

Anyone?

You will see a grey GCO button until you place an item in your cart and then check the shopping cart contents. Only then will the button turn blue.

If you have gotten this far already, and still have a grey button you may have differing tax zones between items or some other configuration issues.

I figured it out i had different tax settings for the shipping mod i use. So that is fix but the shipping for fedex was not set to GC, so it seems shipping is not being calculated when a customer uses GC

Thanks ropu! I am eagerly awaiting for v1.4.

I know if you order through the regular zen cart, you can create order slips, but is there anyway to create this when someone goes through google checkout?

Since GCo does not have any way to print a nice invoice, I thought maybe someone worked one up?

Hi, I just got my first order today! I can't believe it but I am clueless how to process it through GC. It shows up my Zen-Cart but not when I sign into my GC account.

PLEASE! I REALLY NEED SOME HELP!!

THANKS!!

I'm not sure what you need to do through Google. You can process your order the same way you usually do through your zen-cart admin. When you change the order status in your admin, and leave the notify customer checked, the info will go back to Google and change the status accordingly.

If you do want to process through Google - can you get into your Google Checkout account? Your production account, not your sandbox account? If so, you should see a page with 3 tabs on it. The first one should be Orders. The info you need should be there.

chain_man nothing is showing up in my google checkout account. I have ssl and tested before in sandbox. Maybe my API was incorrect. Sorry.......but I am excited and nervous at the same time.

Should I call Google?

Are you sure this was a Google order? In your Admin>Customers>Orders list, you should see googlecheckout under the Payment Shipping column.

Yep! It's a google checkout. And I only use GC. WOW! This is so frustrating.

I thought GC would be better than Paypal. I beginning to believe they are both not so great. I am clueless what to do.

There has to be a better solution for people who want to sell on-line.

As I said before, you can process the order as you would any other zen-cart order. You have customer info and order details, right?

I'm not sure what else you think you need...

Hey Doug, just ignore me. I was really excited about the order and then I realized it must of have been fake because it never made it to GC.

I did a test order myself and it went through immediately with no problems.

But I did notice one thing kinda weird.

On the first order, I received an email saying "Order Confirmation # 1", but nothing in my GC account. Which by the way, I only use GC so there are no other options.

Then I thought maybe I should do another test and like I said it went through immediately but I never received "Order Confirmation from Zen, just a GC Order Confirmation.

I am learning!!

So my GC seems to be working fine. Something happened on my first order, not sure but I sent her a really nice email.

Just a thought - are you checking your production Google account rather than your sandbox account? You should be able to get there with https://checkout.google.com/sell

You may not get an order confirmation from your zen site. Mine seem to be hit or miss. If you got one from GC and the order details appear in your Customer>Orders details - it looks like you have a legitimate sale.

chain_man:OK...I think I found my problem. The checkout is NOT going through GC. That's why I am getting order confirmations and not GC confirmations. That person did not use GC just the regular checkout.

How can I fix that?

How can I remove the standard checkout gif and just leave the GC button?

There are some posts about doing that in this thread. You may have to do a search. There are also a couple of threads in this topic that may or may not have some useful info.

How can process the order without the credit card information?

The orders are NOT going through Zen -----> GC.

I am glad I am finding this out now....

WOW what a learning experience.

Is there a link to correct this so I can fix it.

Keeping my fingers crossed to see if this works

#1710 on this thread tells how to remove checkout button and make sure it goes through GC.

Doug:: thanks so much for all your support today!

For all who might be interested the new 1.4-alpha2 version...

Working well for me. Observe many improvements over v1.3RC2.

v1.4 correctly processes my optional OT modules (e.g. Better Together discount) and itemnational/iteminternational shipping is built in.

Good enough that I'm going live with 1.4-alpha2 this evening.

To observe ongoing follow-up reviews of my observations and experiences with v1.4 visit the discussion area at the v.1.4 support site: http://groups.google.com/group/google-checkout-for-zen-cart-mod-support

BTW Ropu announced ETA for release of v1.4 stable version to be around the end of the month. At that time a zip version will become available. Until then only the SVN is available for the latest 1.4 version (alpha2)

If the orders have not gone through GC, and you did not have a credit card payment option checked, then you will probably want to go to your GC account and create an invoice to your customer through GC. It should automatically include a link so they can pay with their credit card through GC.

Likewise, if you had a PayPal account, you could create an invoice through PayPal that your customer could pay with their credit card.
