Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
OK, I’ve obviously mucked up something.
I’m coding an online store for a local historical society. (it’s not live yet)
The other day it was working wonderfully, but now it is not.
If you go to any of the pages on the store and “buy” an item. You’ll find that it is no longer conveying the item and price over to the cart via the add button. The price information is no longer conveyed to the checkout page.
Any idea on what I should be looking for that may have changed?
The article forms are all calling for “price” which is in my config file and the name of the custom field 1. I have upgraded to v0.3.2 and now v0.3.3.

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
Solved. Thanks Trenc. I appreciate it.
Suffice it to say— make sure the config file matches with everything else.
I had indeed made a change, but the project had been on the back burner and I forgot I had even made the change until I scoured the site.
I guess that’s the downside of moonlighting. My day job fills my brain. Still, some days I wonder about myself.

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
Ok, so today i took a good look at this, and I might just convert to using txp+ yab_shop + linklok to set up automatic downloads upon payment. Liklok is set up to work with standard paypal “buy” and “add to cart” buttons, so I’m wondering If it’ll still work with yab_shop.
From my limited knowledge I’d guess it does, the way it would normally work is paypal “pings” linklok after a successful tranasction, and linklok activates a download url. This comes from their documentation:How does it work?
Paypal allows you to place buttons or links on your website for each
of your products. The buttons can either take the purchaser directly
to the checkout where he makes the payment or alternatively adds
the product to the Paypal shopping cart allowing further purchases
to be made. Either way after payment is completed Paypal can be
configured to call a special Instant Payment Notification (IPN) URL
When Linklok is called it first authenticates the call to ensure that it
was indeed sent from Paypal and has not been tampered with in
anyway. Then Linklok will create secure links for each of the
products ordered (at least those that you allow to be downloaded)
and email them to the purchaser. If required Linklok can also be the
return (or thank you) page that the user is sent to after a transaction
and in this case display the download links in the browser as well
as sending them by email_
the only question is if yab_shop sends individual article info in a way that the ipn can send it back to linklok.
I know as usual I’m asking a very specific question, but any help will be appreciated.

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
Hi there me again :-)
My shop is coming along nicely and a really love the plugin.
Now I have made following structural change to the shop:
Instead of putting all Items in Categories, they all no go into their sections. So the url would look like this:
domain.com/sectiona/item, domain.com/sectionb/item, etc the whole domain should be a shop, not just domain.com/shop
now the value for “shop_section_name” in the config file is no more just one section but many. How do I fix this? Ive tried multiple inputs but it doesnt work
thanks for the help again.
Regards Marcel

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
@kemie:
Paypals Instant Payment Notification is not yet implemented, but I have in mind to implement it together with an admin order interface.
@whaleen:
Google checkout should not be a difficult thing. I think in one of the next releases you can choose google checkout as an additional payment method.
@mauricenaef:
Sorry, mauricenaef, but you can’t fix it easily. But I will have a look, so I hope next release you will be able to organize your products in sections too.

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
But first I will thank and credit Joe Wilson , who first implemented a google checkout in his cart. It makes easy to me and so I borrowed some code.
Ok, what’s new:- There is no need of a specific shop section. Now you can organize all your products in different sections.
- Google checkout support. Due the different tax rates and tax calculation methods in US please read the relevant part about the google checkout setup in the config help.
- Litte rewrite of the config help.
- Fixed a minor typo (html class name).
Please report bugs etc. Thanks!
