Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

[Woodymon]

Have a look to the README for the state change mapping

I think Isaac was asking the other fella on the specific steps he went about solving his issue. The instructions in the readme are just very general.

Processed my first live UK google checkout sucessfully, everything works great! Got all my customer details sent back and tax is applied. :) I have this working with lots of MODs, the only conflict was with edit orders, but that still works too, sort of!

Thanks for your hard work sorting all this out, this will save me a fortune in processing fees.

hi

double check this

A disabled button is displayed in the following cases:
1. If merchant id or merchant key is not set
2. If there are multiple shipping options selected and they use different shipping tax tables or some dont use tax tables

ropu-

Can you please provide more details in regards to number two above. I just don't understand what that statement means (sorry but the words vague and ambiguous come to mind).

Can you maybe provide SPECIFIC EXAMPLES to explain potential scenarios where #2 above would apply and how to correct?

I know this mod is still BETA but I think the mod is still ways a way of being easy enough to install/configure/troubleshoot for the common shop owner.

If it is not easy (like the PayPal IPN and PayPal Express Checkout mods are) to install and configure then the documentation (and the support responses here) at least needs to be much more complete with detailed examples and step-by-steps provided.

And with only one person in the universe (that would be you) whom knows this mod very well, and then being gone for a week at a time and four days at a time, the lack of support is troublesome.

I hope Google can setup a discussion group for Zen cart shop owners and provide a more timely and detailed support. If shopowners are going to to depend on Google Checkout for their primary checkout and payment processor, much improved support is required (with more detailed responses and more timely turnaround on support issues). Eventually if Google Checkout really wants to be competitive then a support phone number (like PayPal provides) is needed where shopowners can call with questions.

If such support improvement is not forth coming then I could never recommend GoogleCheckout to anyone.

The README really doesn't address the mapping issue (HOW TO DO IT). Some of us have created custom status that we use in Zen Cart.

Another bug report: Google Checkout does not obey coupon restriction. If you setup a coupon on the Admin side that's restrict for example one use per customer, Google Checkout still allows the same customer to keep using the same coupon.

It doesn't help that posts with really issues/problem are not being addressed.

Hi! Jacob, I know you are the master of this Zen-cart and google check-out. I am really lost, I been trying to add GC to my web site. But it's not working!

Here is what happen.

After my customer add item to cart, they have 2 options.

Option 1: login to my site, select shipping method, then payment option.
it has a option to select google checkout(not a google check out icon, just a radio buttom).
If customer select google check-out, click on confirm order. It's just go to
"your order has been completed" page. It dosen't show or go to google
check out page, the order show on my web site admin area, but it didn't
charge and didnt show in my google account.

Option 2: click on google check out icon, it add taxes to the order. But
all the shipping options appear to $0.00. I tried to send 1 in my admin
area in my web site, but it appear $1.00. How do I hide some of the
shipping option and calculate shipping by weight? When my customer select
google check out, does it also send the item weight to google check out?
If so, in my google account, where do I set up that?

Or, Did I totally messed up? I download the patch and upload the file to my zen-cart folder. If you don't mind, please direct me a step by step procedures. Do I have to re-install zen-cart again?
