My problem was my htaccess file was just a bit too strict. I searched google checkout groups for the right way to set it but didn't find it. So now I'll search here. If I don't find it here then I'll just have to figure it all out and post I'll post it here and in it's own post so that it can be found in and out of this thread.
To be honest I really think this thread is too big to be of any use. But I'll continue to add what I learn to it anyway.
Thanks,

Hoooo Kay,
So if I use the htaccess.php file that is included in the download, even though it's for php over CGI wont that still work?
It creates the following for two files.
.htaccess file: <<<Start--- AuthName "Google checkout Basic Authentication" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /home/**********/public_html/googlecheckout/
Where *********** is the user directory
.htpasswd require valid-user ---End>>>
.htpasswd file: <<<Start--- !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:#############. ---End>>>
Where !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is the GC account number and ########### is the GC key.
Will the two above file work just as well even though I'm not using php over cgi but straight php?
Anyone know how to implement a 'how did you hear about us' on the checkout proccess?
Do you have the USPS shipping module installed and configured? I went to your site, added some items to the cart and I don't even see the 'shipping estimator' button.Quote:

I really don't like dealing with alpha releases and that's why I haven't tested it.
My second question, does anyone know what I need to change to include the products model in the GC cart?
I have lots of items and some of them have the exact same name/description the only way to differentiate is by item number (model).
Currently the mod passes the product id, but it's not vey user friendly for the merchant, not useful at all for the customer to determine what they ordered, especially when they order dozens of items.
Currently, the item info is passed and shows something like this:
Silver Ring
ID - 35789
Silver Ring
ID - 38456
Silver Chain
ID - 39456
I would prefer that the product's model be passed as part of the item-name tag or in the merchant-item-id tag, so that an item would show in the GC cart something like:
Item #SR9510 Silver Ring
ID - 35789
or
Silver Ring
Item #SR9510
Thanks for any input on this.

Ropu has stated he will strive for an updated "stable" 1.4 release by end of the month. But in reality it will be a "beta" version and the beta will be ready when it is ready. And that means it will ready sooner when enough merchants test the current version and provide feedback. I have current v1.4-alpha2 running on a live shop. I have posted some of my observations on the new 1.4 support forum.Quote:

You should protect the logs no matter what.Quote:

As far as I have tested the freeshipper issue appears repaired in v1.4. But maybe your super-hero cross-eyed status will remain an issue :wink2:Quote:
