Re: Google Checkout module for Zen Cart (beta)
With a bit more digging I've found a couple of references to coupons and discounts which may explain my problems.
The first mentions as tj1 has to setup coupons in GC seller account under settings, well there are no options in there that I can find to do this in either our sandbox or real sellers account.
Next I reread the developer notes and noticed
http://code.google.com/apis/checkout..._and_discounts
The key part being
Quote:
- Use the Merchant Calculations API to compute discounts after the buyer reviews the order. If you choose this option, the customer will have the option to enter coupon or gift certificate codes on the Google Checkout Place Order page. This option requires you to create and operate a fast, highly reliable web service to compute discounts. (That service could also calculate tax and shipping costs.) Please see the Merchant Calculations API section for more information.
- Note: Merchants in the U.K. cannot yet use the Merchant Calculations API to calculate coupons or gift certificates.
It seems that coupons are handled by the Merchant Calculations API which at the moment UK Merchants don't get.
So that along with Zen not posting group discounts probably explains why it won't work for us at the moment. We can't really release the GC integration on our site until this is working as trade customers can't buy via it as they get different prices to joe public.
If anyone knows if the mod is likely to change anytime soon to integrate discounts being posted to GC then it would be great to hear. In the meantime I may have a look at the code myself but I fear it's going to be a little bit above my talent.
Cheers

Do you what could be the reason the others aren't showing?
At least one is working, but I really would like 1st-class international to show up, most of the packages I ship are small 2 to 5 ounces so it does make a big difference.
Please retest but using this product to test the check: http://www.clevershoppers.com/index....oducts_id=7994
Make sure that's the only product in your shopping cart and then try GC and let me know the result.
Thanks!

Regular ZC coupon works for us using GC. The only problem is it doesn't follow the restrictions in ZC. For example if you create a coupon in ZC that is suppose to be a one time use GC will allow the customer to use it more than one time. I am in the US so this may explain the difference in our coupon usage.
It appears that the folks at Google are really not detail oriented when it comes to programming. Google terminated the $10 promotion on 5/15/07 and our customers are still getting $10 off from Google even though the button for the promotion has been updated with the standard button. I pointed this out to say that Google doesn't even do it right even when it cost then millions of dollars let alone a free mod to support the program.

Hmm...I am lost for answers. I am just glad that we get less than 1% international sales so for us this is really not a critical problem. Hopefully, when someone else takes over this mod they will fix this or perhaps Woody and Chain_Man can provide a solution.

Attention required: order notification failing
Help!
I installed Google Checkout - had problems with it and decided to give up on it for now. But the errors from the test orders I ran are still coming. I deleted the orders and have selected to not receive e-mail notifications for orders - but they just won't stop.
It has been three or four weeks and I've tried everything I can think of to stop the error notifications. What am I missing?
Help!

And not sure if discounts are being worked on at the moment.
Google Checkout mod does not process "order totals" mods as we want/need. As I've posted previously, I hope to see the "Better Together" mod discount which is an "Order Totals" type mod, supported by Google Checkout.
Wish I could be of assist.
