Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

[cma01]

I just install GC 1.4.7 on an installation of Zencart 1.3.8a. I have the same problem as a previous poster. It never goes to GC, it just loops back and forth in the checkout cart.

Does anyone have a fix for this?

Two questions:

1. What is the advantage of Google Checkout? Right now Paypal is my only payment method, but I noticed when I Google some of the items I sell, the first block is a listing of those items in Google Checkout stores. Naturally I'd like to take advantage of that. ;)

2. Does the current mod actually work with 1.3.8a? I've seen two recent posts reporting the same problem. I have yet to get ANY add-on to work and I don't need any more problems.

1.What is the advantage of Google Checkout?
Gives potential customers another option besides
paypal(some people won't use pp at all)
Cheaper charges than paypal.

2. Have successfully used Version 1.47 with
zencart 1.3.8.a but only re digital downloads.
i.e. no shipping involved.
Googlecheckout mod is relatively easy
to install.
Requires acceptable SSL cert for live mode.
Sandbox mode does not require SSL.

Anyone having this problem?
Google checkout seems to work fine. People can place orders. The only problem is we are not getting the order emails (via zen cart). The emails from Google checkout come in. So we will have emails with orders 46, 47, 48 then someone will purchase via Google checkout (order 49). Then someone else will order via zen cart so we get email order 50, 51, etc. There would be no "regular" email for order 49. This makes it difficult for the shipping department to keep track of what they are doing.


Google Checkout version: v1.4.6a
Zen Cart: 1.3.7


Thank You.

Thanks, Misty. I think I'll just watch the thread for a while to see if it's working with 1.3.8a before doing anything.

Is there any way to get rid of free shipping all together for this mod? I am happy to just remove the code that adds it, just not sure what code to dispose of. Thanks!

Having some problems with Google checkout I am running Zen-cart 1.3.8a and Google Checkout 1.4.7, everything seemed to install fine, but when I got my first order I got an e-mail notification from Google checkout, but the order was not passed to Zen-cart I had to manually put it in, the second order I did not get notified at all I found out when the customer complained.

So what I am asking is where do I start looking for the problem, they seem to be able to use it, but nothing is passed to the cart, and I am not being notified, I am really lost here I don't want to turn it off, but I need it to integrate with the cart properly, any help would be great.

OK, nevermind, for some reason it's not showing free shipping now :)

BUT, orders are not showing up in admin. To answer the 4 questions:

1. Are you using live google checkout or sandbox? Live
2. If you are using live, do you have recommended Google SSL cert? Using Thawte
3. Did you do initial check, as per mod instructions, that your zencart store is connecting to google. Initial responsehandler.php check gives me a prompt for userid and password If I click OK with my merchant id and key, the responsehandler.php forever will then take me to my homepage, probably b/c of the error page setup in my .htaccess file. If I click on cancel and don't enter in userid and pass, then I get " This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your browser doesn't understand how to supply the credentials required." 401 error.
4. URL of your site is? www.doodlebuckets.com

Any help getting things working in admin would be great! Thanks...

I'm reading some of the posts on this thread and getting concerned.

Setting up my site, I want to use only Google checkout -- I selected it for the very reason that I don't have SSL.

Now I'm reading that I have to have SSL?

Shoot! I really don't want to use paypal or get an SSL.

The sandbox GC is active right now on the store, but a few testers say it isn't working.

Help! I need to get up and running NOW!

Amy,

Slightly OT: Check your login page. There's an error message in red that you don't have a shipping option configured - Freeoptions

I found out that that option has to be configured just right. You need to have blanks in all options except the ones you want to use.
