[Support Thread] Nochex APC

[Pixxi]

The existing NoChex module (ie. the 'old' one) works fine on zen 1.3.6 - my clients are using it on several shops (and the oldest shop is still on v 1.2.3)

It does confirm to the shop that a payment has been processed successfully, and it does initiate the 'checkout success' page and order in the shop/confirmation emails - although the version presently in the downloads section was corrupted last time I tried it (Jan 2006 - problem with some of the carriage returns being stripped out when it was uploaded, or something similar maybe - fixable though).

The 'new' NoChex APC currently has a file missing (or did have a few days ago) plus it doesn't pass the location of your header banner/logo for the payment page at NoChex as the existing mod does - although you can copy the code across from the existing mod quite easily. The confirmation emails from NoChex no longer display the delivery address (they used to in the older mod).

It's also missing the customer's 'phone number (which is now a required field on the new NoChex payment page) although apparently NoChex don't have a variable for that if you're using the 'Seller' account (the Merchant account has one) - bit of an omission on NoChex's part perhaps since the customer gets an error if they don't see/fill it in.

It also doesn't pass the postage (again, no variable, apparently) and it's difficult to get the cart description formatted properly at present (NoChex is ignoring the formatting codes - have emailed them).

The new APC module seems to give a bit more info on the customer's order page (similar to Paypal) - although I haven't been able to see it yet because the missing file prevents it displaying - and the payment page at NoChex is better laid out, otherwise I can't see much different between the old and new mod unless you're using a NoChex 'Merchant' account, when it seems to provide more variables and the possibility of feeding several shops into the same NoChex account (although beware, there's a large rolling retainer on the 'Merchant' account).

There's a working version of the 'old' NoChex module here:

(You'll also need the language file from the NoChex mod in the downloads section)

new nochex payment pages module with APC

Just a FYI for anyone downloading ... the new version is not yet in the downloads section (presumably hasn't been 'approved' yet) - the mod there today is still the older one (with the file missing) dated 20th December.

Just thought i would let people know.....

I have uploaded the new Nochex module and it appears to have fields on the setup page but no description about what to put in them, Take a look

There's two problems:

1. The mod in the download section is still (currently) the old mod dated 20 December. Although you can process a transaction via NoChex with this one, it has a file missing that prevents the display of the payment info on the customer's order page (it gives an error).

2. If your field descriptions are missing when you edit the NoChex mod in admin check to see if you have the existing (ie older, non-APC) NoChex mod files also in your shop - the files for the two mods cannot be present at the same time since they seem to use some of the same variables and clash - irrespective of the info in the mod's readme file that says they can co-exist.

OK thanks for clearing that up for me

I will wait for the updated module and try again then.

Thanks Pixxi :)

There is no record of a new module submitted to the contributions area since Dec 20, 2006.

Thanks for that Doc, that's what I suspected after reading a different thread. I've PM'd the developer of the mod (MxG) but as yet have had no reply.

Hi
I installed the mod last week and got my first order from it last night, I assume I must have found the old mod however, I received the email from Nochex confirming payment had been received and showing the customer address, however the order has never arrived in the shop, the customer shows are registered and the order is sat in recover cart.

Is there any way to force this from recover cart to order status. I asked the customer to go back in and checkout as cash so that it moves through the system but this is not practical for every one so have disabled nochex for now.

I am not a merchant account.

I prefer Nochex over paypal as it is cheaper and doesnt take as long to arrive in my bank.

I am also subscribing to this thread in the hopes that it will be available soon. I come from a Cubecart store and have to say that they dont have nochex on their latest store, it is one of the reasons I started looking at alternatives, and although I cant get it to work at the moment I would rather have a zen cart anyway!
