Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

I'm using this mod on my 1.3.8a sites and I really like it. However, it's not compatible with PHP 5.3. Has anyone come up with a patch for the out dated ereg() functions? Example:

Function split() is deprecated in /googlecheckout/gcheckout.php on line 128

Here is a copy of line 128:

PHP Code:

PHP Code:

---

$resticted_categories = split('([ ]?[,][ ]?)',MODULE_PAYMENT_GOOGLECHECKOUT_RESTRICTED_CATEGORIES);

Anyone know how to rewrite this for PHP 5.3? I can't believe no one's talking about this on the support thread as we're all going to have to upgrade to 1.3.9 before the next version of PHP is thrown upon us and all our sites just white screen.

Google Checkout is not totally unusable without SSL. You can still get orders that accept GCO. And you can still get paid by GCO. You just don't get the order info automatically to your Admin screens. Instead, you get order notifications via email from Google. And you must log in to your GCO account to process the order statuses.

I sell on ecrater as well, which takes Google Checkout. I receive the email from Google Checkout and no notification from Ecrater. Would that be the same situation if I installed Google Checkout on zencart without an SSL?

(and for whoever asked - my ISP does not provide SSLs. I did look into it)

That sounds about right. You would get and email from Google Checkout. You would have to manually enter the sale info to your zen cart based on the gco info (to keep your inventory current). And Enter the sale status into your gco account.

@limelites

Try

PHP Code:

---

$resticted_categories = preg_split('([ ]?[,][ ]?)',MODULE_PAYMENT_GOOGLECHECKOUT_RESTRICTED_CATEGORIES);

Hi i have just installed Google checkout thinking it would be good to use it so people could leave seller ratings in my google shopping list thing.

However i have installed it to a v 1.3.9c zen cart, i have reward points, light box, PP Express and PP Web payments pro modules installed.

I cannot see any google checout option on my website and also all my customer email updates that i use to update from processing to dispatched are no longer being sent to customers.

Anyone got any ideas what is wrong?

I'm a bit confused as to how shipping works in GC :dontgetit

Do you set it up in your GC admin or in ZC admin?

I use a basic price based setup:

0-50 - 5.95
50.01 - 99 - 6.95
99.01 and up - free

Can someone point in the right direction!!

GC admin is inside zencart admin
admin > modules > payments

Yes, thank you. However, I believe that is for processing orders and configuring GC tol take process transactions for the store.

What I'm trying to do is configure my shipping for GC. I don't use real time shipping from the major shipping companies, I just simply use a price based table structure as noted in my previous post.

Just need some clear instructions on how to do that.

Hi,
i am using the latest version of zencart 1.3.9d

i have the following contributions installed

zen light box
shopping cart with checkout button sidebox
cross sell
colum layout grid for product listings
column divider
social bookmarking
