Paypal recurring billing module for Website Payment Pro

[fscproductions]

I recently had a recurring billing system created utilizing Paypal Website Payments Pro, and since I am about to provide my customers with an expanded version of this module, I figured it might help some people providing it on the addons page.

All the instructions are included, and there is a installation instructions included. This works out of the box for Zencart 1.3.8, I have tested it. If you have any questions, please post them on this forum rather then email.

I just installed it as this is exactly what my client needs for subscriptions. But does this place recurring billing on all items in my clients' store. Or just specific ones? These are the items that should have recurring billing added:

The first step is to create the product, then you have a new drop down in the product details where you can select subscription. It is important that you enter a price of $0 in the product details page.

Once the product is made, and subsciption type selected, you would click on the subscriptions link in the upper navigation, and enter the details of the subscription, including the price. There is a drop down to select the product it will be associated with.

The one issue is this, in the checkout area, the price will be displayed as $0, and the actual price is displayed in the details area where attributes are listed. This is because of the recurring billing for paypal. If you enter the products price in the product details, and not the subsciption page, it will only bill the customer once.

Hope that answered the question.

I must have done something wrong. I can't find this new dropdown anywhere. I'm in the Categories/Products area and clicked on New Product and I don't see any pulldown offering subscriptions. Am I in the right area?

OK, it's working. Sort of. I filled out the form in the Subscriptions/Recurring area and got this SQL error:


1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'd like us to send in the text box below.','0', 'Month', '0','','0')' at line 4

If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

Another problem. Seems that on Checkout, I get this message:

We are sorry for the inconvenience. The PayPal account authentication settings are not yet set up, or the API security information is incorrect. We are unable to complete your transaction. Please notify the store owner so they can correct this problem. (10002)

We did set it up and now it doesn't work. Is it because I turned off the original PayPal Express Checkout area?

I eliminated the apostrophes and the problem is gone. Could I use \' like I do in some MySQL databases?

Also, I have frequency set for months with the pulldown set at 1. That does mean that the customer will be charged once a month?

I did an order and sure enough, it came up as $0.00 in the cart. When I completed the order, the cart did not take me to the PayPal screen like it does at the end of standard non-subscription orders. Is this normal?

Big Problem. The orders for the subscriptions are not going through at all. Regular orders are but anything involving a subscription is not. The receipt that goes thru ZC shows up as $0.00 Here's a portion of the ZenCart receipt (store.com doesn't really exist...I also covered up the order id for security purposes):

There is no PayPal receipt since the order never makes it to PayPal. Only regular, non-subscription orders do.

I tried to click the link for the download and got a 404 error. Can you please post another link?

I would also like a new link to this. It looks like it'd fit what I need perfectly.

Thanks!
