eWAY Payment Gateway - Rapid 3.0 API [Support Thread]

[frank18]

Instead of modifying ZC core code (as shown in my last post), a more elegant way of overcoming the currency symbol issue is this hack:

In the file includes/modules/payment/eway_rapid.php find this code

  /**
   * Build the data and actions to process when the "Submit" button is pressed on the order-confirmation screen.
   * This sends the data to the payment gateway for processing.
   * (These are hidden fields on the checkout confirmation page)
   *
   * @return string
   */
  function process_button() {
        global $db, $order, $currencies, $currency, $messageStack; 

Immediately after that insert

        
      // bof force change currency code to AUD -- frank18 20160306
        $show_charged_amount = false;
        if (!in_array($order->info['currency'], array('AUD'))) {
            // we are not in default currency so we need to change currency code to default AUD as eWay only accepts AUD
            $order->info['currency'] = zen_currency_exists(DEFAULT_CURRENCY, false);
            // now show the customer what they are being charged in $AUD
            $show_charged_amount = true;
            $displayed_amount = number_format($order->info['total'], 2, '.', '');
         }
      // eof force change currency code to AUD -- frank18 20160306 

To show the customer what and how they are being charged, in the same file find

        echo '<!-- Begin eWAY Linking Code --> 

Just before that code insert

        // bof heading added -- frank18 20160306
        echo '<h2>eWAY Payment Details</h2>';
        if ($show_charged_amount) {
           echo '<div id="ewayRapidPayment">Your payment will be processed in Australian Dollars ($AUD)</div>';
           echo 'Amount charged in $AUD ' . $displayed_amount;
           }
        echo '<h3>(Payment will appear on your Credit Card Statement as <b>WHATEVER YOU WANT TO SAY HERE</b>)</h3>';
        // eof heading added -- frank18 20160306 

With this modification we are only passing the currency code AUD instead of the customer selected currency code (eg USD, EUR, NZD etc), the functionality of the original eWay code is not changed at all.

All shopping cart and checkout pages continue to show the customer chosen currency and values.

I've tried both eWay shared and redirect but It seems that 80% of orders although processed successfully don't redirect to the checkout confirmation page and the order isn't logged in Zen Cart.

Has anyone experienced something similar and what was the cause?

I've had the same thing happen a few times. It was usually when the customer had entered the CR number wrong a couple of times. Don't know a fix though sorry.

Yeah I noticed that too. If you leave spaces in the numbers, it won't give an error, just redirect to the main page. Seems like a very "raw" module. Would have thought eWay would have made more of an effort. Guessing they don't have many Zen Cart users.

I've had people put in two payments for one order a few times too. It happens when they hit the button twice. Module needs a wait wheel so that people know to wait!

I've had people put in two payments for one order a few times too. It happens when they hit the button twice. Module needs a wait wheel so that people know to wait!

Happened to me once (customer hit the button twice) and implemented this (wait wheel or similar) in a 1.5.4 store.

Found an animated "We are processing your payment.... Please Wait" image in a Google image search (use whatever suits you but observe the Copyright notice). Named that image processing_animation.gif and placed it into the /images folder for use with any template.

Then open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_checkout_confirmation_default.php - scroll to the bottom of the file and find

<?php 
  echo zen_draw_form('checkout_confirmation', $form_action_url, 'post', 'id="checkout_confirmation" onsubmit="submitonce();"'); 
 
  if (is_array($payment_modules->modules)) { 
    echo $payment_modules->process_button(); 
  } 
?> 
<div class="buttonRow forward"><?php echo zen_image_submit(BUTTON_IMAGE_CONFIRM_ORDER, BUTTON_CONFIRM_ORDER_ALT, 'name="btn_submit" id="btn_submit"') ;?></div> 
</form> 
<div class="buttonRow back"><?php echo TITLE_CONTINUE_CHECKOUT_PROCEDURE . '<br />' . TEXT_CONTINUE_CHECKOUT_PROCEDURE; ?></div>

change to

<?php 
  echo zen_draw_form('checkout_confirmation', $form_action_url, 'post', 'id="checkout_confirmation" onsubmit="submitonce();"'); 
 
  if (is_array($payment_modules->modules)) { 
    echo $payment_modules->process_button();   
  }     
?> 
<div class="centeredContent"><img id="actionImg" src = "images/processing_animation.gif" class="hiddenField" /></div> 
<div class="buttonRow forward"><?php echo zen_image_submit(BUTTON_IMAGE_CONFIRM_ORDER, BUTTON_CONFIRM_ORDER_ALT, 'name="btn_submit" id="btn_submit"') ;?><br /><?php echo '<b>Press ONLY ONCE ....</b>';?></div> 
</form> 
<div class="buttonRow back"><?php echo TITLE_CONTINUE_CHECKOUT_PROCEDURE . '<br />' . TEXT_CONTINUE_CHECKOUT_PROCEDURE; ?></div>

That image also shows up for other payment modules (eg PayPal ... slow response etc) - never had this issue ever since.

Thank you! I'll do that as soon as I find a nice image.

[robbie269]

<div class="centeredContent"><img id="actionImg" src = "images/processing_animation.gif" class="hiddenField" />

Does the image only show if there is a delay? Can't see it when I do a test order.

If the image does not show when the order confirmation button is clicked the open the file

includes/modules/pages/checkout_confirmation/jscript_main.php

and find

function submitonce() 

Change the entire function to read

function submitonce() 
{ 
  var button = document.getElementById("btn_submit"); 
  var img = document.getElementById("actionImg"); 
  button.style.cursor="wait"; 
  button.disabled = true; 
  button.className = 'hiddenField'; 
  img.className = ''; 
  setTimeout('button_timeout()', 5000); 
  return false; 
} 

You can change the timeout value to anything lesser or more.

Hope this helps.

Have used eWay now for some months, never had this happening.
