Thank you for your efforts Woody!
I'm convinced that this is an arduous task that you've taken on.
I've been looking for an answer to a question that many folks have been asking over on the google forum, but there doesn't seem to be an answer.
Is there anything in sight that would suggest that customers will be able to make payments on GC without having to open a "Google Account"?
I have a 100% abandonment from the GC page, and I believe that it has something to do with the need to open yet another account to pay for the goods.
I went with GC to attract customers, but it seems to be having the opposite effect.

GC was never intended to be a "no account" express checkout method.
Requiring an account is a fundamental Google Checkout service policy/product design decision. Best to inquire on this at Google Checkout support site (Merchants forum or Developers forum or both).
No need for your new customers to set-up a Zen Cart account (this is done automatically for them in the background by the GC mod script).
That is when checking out of your shop via GC your new customers (guests) only need to open a GC buyers account. Not much to it, just enter CC info plus shipping address on one short form, data which is needed to fulfill any order. So I don't understand the creating an "account" issue. I am aware that some people are leary of the words "create account" or "profile"... which has been repeatedly discussed throughout ZC support forums... but is off-topic for this thread.
At any rate, I see opposite results with GC. My observations is the uptake to using Google Checkout for payment has been very good. Now 50/50 with PayPal. Not needing authorize.net any longer.
But I do note the GC mod integration into Zen Cart still requires more work and Ropu is working on it. Bust most ZC functionality is already supported.
See wishlist/known issues page on new support forum. A mod update is scheduled for release next week. New and updated functionality undergoing testing now.
If you want to continue any discussion regards to GC mod v.1.4 please post to the new support forum.

Test order shows up in Google but not admin..
i follow what the installation guide says but still can't see the sample orders in admin...
can someone help me...
thanks....
Hello Everyone,
First of all, thanks to everyone working on this project. It has helped me enourmously and made my life much easier (and cheaper.)
I set up ZC with GC Module yesterday and successfully got GC Sandbox to talk to my back end. I get order updates from Google successfully but cannot turn around and update GC properly.
Whenever I open an order and update its status to "shipped" (I changed "Delivered" to "shipped" in the order status'), a message in the header indicates that the status was successfully updated but also that there was an "Error Sending Google Message, see Error Logs." Looking at the order status page, I see that the customer was not notified of the status change as I requested.
So, I opened my error logs and looked to see what it could be. In the response_error.log I see this message:
In the response_message.log, I see this message:Code:Wed Aug 15 5:38:19 EDT 2007:-
At this point, I go to GC Sandbox to see the status and note that the order is still marked as awaiting shipment.Code:Wed Aug 15 5:38:19 EDT 2007:- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<send-buyer-message xmlns="http://checkout.google.com/schema/2" google-order-number="974808713515562">
<message>Testr</message>
<send-email>true</send-email>
</send-buyer-message>
Does / is ZC supposed to update shipment status' with GC?
Thanks for any help you can offer!

Also could you please report back which page (URL) on the new support forum directed you to post questions regarding v.1.4 to this thread? We need to correct that information.
