Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

Thanks Ropu for the clarification. I figured it might not hurt to put the two files in both locations, so I as far as I can tell I have resolved that issue.
I am still having problems getting UPS Ground to show up in my cart once the GC button is clicked. The only shipping options that show up are 1DM, 1DML and XPD even though they show as commented out in mcshipping. I deleted line 117 so UPS Ground was NOT commented out, but as a novice, perhaps that was the wrong move. Perhaps you could give me some guidance here?

I am still having the same problem I had b4. No google check button. when I do try to check out it goes through the process on my web site then when you click confirm order it does not go to the google web site I get a smtp error page.

hi dave

try this

'ups' => array('domestic_types' => 
                 array('1DM' => 'Next Day Air Early AM',
                          '1DML' => 'Next Day Air Early AM Letter',
                          'GND' => 'Ground',
                          'XPD' => 'Worldwide Expedited')
            ),
```the idea is NOT to delete the one you want, is to uncomment it

tell me how this works.

btw, 'XPD' wont work for address outside us, basically  because GC dont yet do int'l shipping

have a look to the INSTALLATION file

• Note: The folder YOUR_TEMPLATE refers to the folder that contains your templates.

you must put the files in /includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/ in your own templates dir

there you should see the GC buy button.

hi jhaase83,

ropu

Yes I did. I do have some of the files that where in the download. I copied and pasted the html over into them like the instructions said. Should I completly change the files to what is on the download?

ropu:

eva, Int'l shipping is not yet available for GC. So any shipping outside US, will be marked as not-shippable.

ropu

Ok then, I'll wait until that's been fixed. In the mean time, can I send an invoice to my international customers and can they pay that way?

I have overcome the previous problem by pasting new UPS shipping code into mcshipping, but like Alik I see that real time rates are not showing up in GC. I see it has been advised to use multisocket, but I also see that some seem to be experiencing problems with this feature. Am I just inviting more problems going this route? I am also experiencing the same problem others seem to see with test orders in Sandbox not showing up in GC order box. Is this all related to time out problem? Thanks again for your help Ropu

Ropu,

Is there a possibility of posting a definitive list of what Zen Cart functions/features ARE supported by your GC mod, and which functions/features are NOT supported?

Also is there any programming option available in your mod to disable Google Checkout option whenever customer:

1. is logged in with an account associated with a non US address
2. adds a "virtual" product to their shopping cart?
3. for customers not logged into Zen Cart does your mod provide any feedback to the customer to make them aware that international shipping is not supported, before they spend time filling out forms at the Google Checkout site.

Or maybe update the Google Checkout logo to state "US domestic shipping only". Or can we edit te logo to show this? Otherwise how are customers to understand the shipping limitation?

I was really hoping that Google Checkout would quickly become a viable competitor to PayPal. But lacking support for international shipping and for virtual products (softgoods), that competition will not take place.

Maybe Google could hire some extra "Summer Coders" to make this happen?

ropu:

yes it should, but i can tell you way, that function is already declared. i think your installation is mixed or not fully v1.2. Or you have a other contribution with the same function name.

im adding to the TODO list,

• add "gc_" to all GC internal functionsropu
  Ropu,
  I removed the module and re-installed it. I am still getting the following error:
  "Fatal error: Cannot redeclare selfurl() (previously declared in /home/blumcafe/public_html/coffeeshop/googlecheckout/gcheckout.php:38) in /home/blumcafe/public_html/coffeeshop/googlecheckout/gcheckout.php on line 37"
  
  I look in developer's tool kit to see what else calls that selfURL function, but nothing shows there. I don't know what else to do at this point. Furthermore, in your previous post, you suggested that I add a "gc_" to all GC internal functions. I am not a programmer and I am not sure I understand what that means. Does that mean wherever I see a function call, I need to add the "gc_"? for instance "function strleft($s1, $s2) {" would now be "function gc_strleft($s1, $s2) {"? Please advise. I am running ZenCart 1.3.7. I just installed the GC module 1.2RC4Rev1.

Thanks,
Blum

Ropu, is there a way to clean up this file /googlecheckout/gcheckout.php or align it better so that it's easier to comment out the different shipping options. The white space is all over the places that sometimes commenting a line actually creates an error.

Thanks!

I am using option B in the instructions. The mentioned files

tpl_checkout_payment_default.php
tpl_login_default.php
tpl_shopping_cart_default.php

these are the files that go in MY TEMPLETE.

I already have these files so I followed the instructions and replaced the information that I was suppose to. Do I need to completely replace these files instead of just the curtain info?

Hi All..

I am a Zen Wannabe LOL

I installed and configured the google checkout mod.

I have a single test product, wi:lamo: th free shipping...

I go through the check out process with no errors
and get to the check out success screen, however
when I go to my google check out account, no orders
show up..

So... Now... Im lost LOL

Id be happy to provide access to anyone that might wanna take a look and see what I mucked up??

Thanks

Bob :lamo:

From looking at the Sandbox Merchant Center, it appears that my API
callback handler returns the following when Google Checkout sends
merchant-calculation-callback message:

As I metioned before I am not getting real time shipping rates (only default rates) and my orders are not showing up in the order inbox.

There seems to be a problem in the code that is causing a timeout or some other problem preventing the callback to fail. Please advise as this seems to be the major hurdle preventing me from getting my cart up and operating after waiting since Dec. to overcome some of these GC problems.

Thanks

Hi Ropu and Others,
I have just installed all the new files for the latest ZC Google Checkout module, and when I go to Admin>Modules>Payment, I get the following error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class googlecheckout in <mystore>/includes/modules/payment/googlecheckout.php on line 377

(I replaced the actual file path with <mystore>.)
I did have gc installed previously, but I removed it as a payment option from Admin before I installed the new files.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Oops - The class was being declared twice because instead of having the language file and the module file each called googlecheckout.php, I simply had two copies of the module file, one stores where the language file should have been. My bad, as they say.

Ropu, anybody?
Could the source of my problem be due to the fact that some of the files already have paypal express embeded - ZC ver. 1.3.7. I have made too many mods to my site and really don't want to have to re-do the whole thing. Any suggestions are welcome. I saw where one other person in this forum had a similar issue but I could not find the solution? Please Help.:(

Anyone knows is the googlecheckout sandbox is working?
I need to get a sandbox account.
This is the correct url correct? http://sandbox.google.com/checkout/sell
I keep getting a 502 Server error when I go there.
"Server Error
The server encountered a temporary error and could not complete your request.
Please try again in 30 seconds. "

If I understood Ropu correctly, he made a note to himself to change the function names in future versions of the code. I don't think he was suggesting that we do this.

As indicated by nabrown78 above, check that the like-named modules in different folders are actually different modules.

Thanks all for your feedback. I did check and did verify that the modules were different. I guess I am just stumped at the moment and was wondering if I really needed this function call? If I don't need it, can someone tell me how to work around it?

I just downloaded a copy of my site to my local machine and used dreamweaver to search all files for the selfURL declaration. I found that the only other place it shows up besides the gcheckout.php file is in the mulitsocket.php file. Could this be the source of my problems? I doubt it since there does not seem to be too many folks experiencing the same problems. Any thoughts? If this is indeed my issue please advise on how I might correct this.
