Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

[BlessIsaacola]

OK, update time. I'm getting there now!

I have got Google Checkout semi-working. Amazing what a fresh morning head can do :-)

I removed it completely from Admin, then I re-installed and reconfigured but this time I chose FALSE and I deleted the .htacces and .htpasswd files.

Now, the Google Checkout button is no longer shaded out and it lets me checkout and it shows all the correct shipping options on the drop down menu... EUREKA?? ALMOST!!

It shows 2 red text errors under the button:

1. Error: Shipping Methods not configured (which I simply removed from the language file)

2. freeoptions (ignored)....

I cannot find the text in any language file on my site that can be generating this 'freeoptions (ignored)' message....

Does anyone know how to remove this?? It looks like an error and will definitely cause a few raised eyebrows on a checkout page..... Anyone?

Can you post the content of your shipping_methods.php here?

Are you using Free Shipping Option on your site? If not, is it disabled on the admin side or uninstalled?

@limelites, I see that you already posted your shipping_methods.php in previous post. Did you commented out the free shipping option as suggested?

Hi,

Yes, I commented them out as follows:

I do use the freeoptions on my site as an incentive to promote multiple purchases....

It'd be ideal if I could just find the language file that generates "freeoptions (ignored)" and remove it? Can't seem to find it using developers toolkit though... I guess it's not generated by ZenCart?

Well, if you're offering Free Shipping Option on your site, why do you want to penalize your customer who use google checkout?

Under what condition is free shipping option enabled (what criteria needs to be met)?

I don't want to penalise Google Checkout customers... in fact if I could get Google Checkout configured to understand ZC freeoptions then I'd be over the moon delighted and dancing for joy!

At the moment, if a customer spends =>150 OR buys =>5 items then shipping is free.

Google Checkout doesn't recognise my freeoptions though. Adding 5 items to cart and/or spending over £150 still causes shipping charges in the drop down.

Which version of GCO do you have installed. The Free Option worked just fine when it was on our site. The only reason we removed it is because we didn't want to offer free shipping international and if you limit it by ZONE then GCO doesn't work as intended.

Are you using the regular free option or the one created by numinix which let you add rules?

Google Checkout Module Version
v1.4.7

Zen Cart

If you have a test site where I can help you test free option I'd be happy to. Free Option works just fine with 1.4.7. Does your free option works just fine with regular Zen Cart checkout process?

Also did you test free option with just the situation if order is = or > 150? instead of a combination of conditions?

I noticed that Store Pickup is available to me even as a US Customer when using GCO. Is that really what you want?

[limelites]

No, I don't want store pickup for international customers. How would I comment that out?

I have tested the freeoptions with normal checkout and it works perfectly, just not with Google.

Unfortunately, I don't have a test site, just the live site. Perhaps it's just a simple configuration problem...??

I did notice that I'm using flat rate shipping with Google checkout as it's certainly not taking the shipping rates from the shipping mods...

It's using the numbers in these boxes to calculate shipping:
