Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
Hi Kevin,
yab_shop don’t support donations. Donations are handled by an special donation button supported by paypal. But technically it is almost the same. The difference are: with donation buttons you can have the ability to spend a fix amount or an ammount a donator will give (You can select this in you paypal account on creating the donation button). And donations works with every paypal account, yab_shop does only work with a business account.

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
Great plugin, are there any plans to make this work with IPN in the near future? I am looking to make my live easier as the shop i am setting up will increase the number of digital products over time.
If this could work/integrate linklokipn, then I would be 100% happy.
Regards
Peter

Hi Peter,
it’s planned, yes. But in near future? I’m afraid: not. I’m little bit bit busy with some projects this time.

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
Hey Pete,
you should try linklokipn with this cart for the perfect combo :)

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
Couple of issues.. They may have already been covered so sorry for any duplication, it’s a long thread.
1. In the checkout I can’t update the quantity or delete the item. It just returns the original quantity and doesn’t update. I tried turning off the ‘send headers’ in txp prefs, but still no luck.
2. In checkout. It’s displaying tax at 19% even though I have changed it to uk 17.5% in the yab_shop prefs. Any ideas why it’s not updating?
Any help my appreciated.

Hi psimsy,

Be sure a <txp:yab_shop_cart /> is called in the checkout section. If not, please place <txp:yab_shop_cart output="none" /> in the checkout section, it’s mandatory.
2. In checkout. It’s displaying tax at 19% even though I have changed it to uk 17.5% in the yab_shop prefs. Any ideas why it’s not updating?
Hm, without a deeper inspection I can’t say why. Sorry! But you can try a normal integer value like ‘17’, if this will work so maybe something goes wrong in the code.

Perhaps you are referring to the text label (as opposed to the calculated value)? If so check your language settings (“Yab_Shop L10n” tab) in the Extensions tab.

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
Thanks trenc & woof
1. I now see it needs BOTH <txp:yab_shop_cart output="none" /> AND <txp:yab_shop_checkout /> in the checkout page.
2. My error the 19% is set in config. Sorry.
Thanks for your patience.

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
Just updated to txp4.2 on a local server and getting a couple of warnings.
On every page: (This one also doesn’t disappear when switching the site to live mode and therefore prevents the site from validating.)
Ein Fehler trat auf beim Laden des Plugins: yab_shop_core -> : Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated on line 998
On the checkout page and on the article page:
<txp:yab_shop_checkout/> -> Warning: number_format() expects parameter 1 to be double, string given on line 1904

Hi dl33,

ah yes. You are using PHP 5.3.0.
Yab_shop is using a object references by & new Class() but these are deprecated in PHP 5.3.0.
Suppressing these E_STRICT and E_DEPRECATED warnings in textpattern live mode for PHP 5.3.0 is patched in revision 3217
But I will patch this in yab_shop by a next version.
<txp:yab_shop_checkout/> -> Warning: number_format() expects parameter 1 to be double, string given on line 1904
You must write prices in decimal. So if a product will costs €12, so write the price as 12,00 or 12.00, then it should work.

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
I am seeing random behaviour when clicking on checkout with the cart. Sometimes the product is wrong, sometimes it says there is nothing in the cart, then suddenly there are 3 items…
Have <txp:yab_shop_cart output="none" /> and <txp:yab_shop_checkout /> in the checkout section, so that is not the issue…

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
I would like to add some more textboxes to the checkout form, so as to gather some more information about the customers. Is this possible? If it is, how might I edit the plugin?
I am on a very tight deadline so I do hope someone can answer these questions as soon as possible; in the meantime I’m going to have a look through the plugin code..
Many thanks in advance

Hi Jonathan,

try do disable »Send Last-Modified-Header« in Textpattern advanced preferences.
Hi Zander,

it’s not possible by default. But you can edit the plugin, if you want.
Look for the functions:
yab_shop_build_checkout_form and yab_shop_build_mail_body.

Re: yab_shop (simple textpattern shop with paypal support)
@rathersplendid: If you edit the plugin and the checkout form is based on zem_contact_reborn (is it?), then you could use the postmaster plugin and just add some input fields with name=“postmaster_hook” Not sure if it works though…
