Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

Does anyone know why google checkout shipping selection options would show up in a different order than in regular checkout through Zen? The sort order is set in Zen and works correctly, however the options in the google checkout shipping dropdown selection show up in the exact opposite order. I would like to change the google selection to mirror what is Zen shows.

1. There are only two shipping selections, both customized clones of the per item module. One is Express and one is Standard. Standard must show before Expedited.

2. Sort order is already set in Zen.

Thanks for any help anyone can offer. :-)

not sure if this has already been posted about since there are 184 pages lol.. but is it possible for the details of the order to remain "generic" on google checkout? For example, with PayPal IPN it shows "<storename> Purchase" and the purchase price.. I would like GC to do something similar on my store as I don't need all the products to show on google

No guarantees, but you might check /includes/modules/paymeny'googlecheckout.php. There is a section with this code:

 $this->mc_shipping_methods_names = array(
        'usps' => 'USPS',
        'fedex1' => 'FedEx',
etc.

)

If the method order that appears in GCO is the same as in this array, you might be able to change the order here to get the display order you want. Let us know if this works.

Thanks for the help, but unfortunately that doesn't seem to work. I have tried that a few times and it seems like the google checkout keeps the old information in cache somewhere. I think it could work if I had some idea how to clear it's memory of what was previously stored. I have looked through the database, as well as several google checkout files and can't find anything about it. I suppose the next step might have to be a complete re-install. Though I am worried that it may not resolve the issue. Any other ideas?

I finally did it. Some tips on what and how I have done, I hope it helps:

*sorry for the way this post is written, english is not my native language

Carlozdre: Very well done. May we use an edited version of your explanation and post on the GC 1.4 mod community support site (for v.1.4)?

To request features please post on the wishlist page on the new GC mod support site for v.1.4x (v1.3 is no long under development).

Woodymon, is 1.4 ready to be used on a live shop?

I believe there was going to be a release by the end of last month, which has now passed but I didn't see any announcement.

I see google-checkout-zencart-v1.4Alpha.zip at http://code.google.com/p/google-checkout-zencart , is that the one ready to be used on a live shop?

Thanks.

I don't really understand why we get risk assements in xml format, who really wants to read that? I'm reading googles site about the different notifications, and it seems to be its all very usefull so why in god is it in xml format.

I dont get orders in zen so I don't know if that info goes there

As posted throughout the new support site (in various documents) v.1.4-alpha2 is the latest GC for ZC mod release and is currently available via SVN only. However 1.4-alpha1 is available as zip.

Both versions above work for me on a "live" shop. YMMV. The only way for you can find out if either 1.4-alpha version "is ready" for you is by installing and testing which features and functions your require. (in general this applies to ALL ZC mods).

With the quickly changing Google Checkout API and the additional integration work needed to support various Zen Cart administrative features (however minor), the mod will continue to be released in "alpha" and "beta" incremental updates for some time to come. But that should not keep you from trying out.

Ropu is making additional code changes and adding additional new features this week so the "alpha3" mod release was delayed just a bit. Release may occur the end of next week (will be available first as SVN then later as a zip). Bottom line is it will be released when it is released.

You can see some of the new mod features and fixes in action at the demo2 site: http://demo.globant.com/~brovagnati/zen_demo2/

For a list of feature updates/fixes in 1.4-alpha2 and features coming soon please see: http://groups.google.com/group/google-checkout-for-zen-cart-mod-support/web/wish-list-features-functionality

Sidenote: I have yet to hear if the USPS international shipping issues reported by tj1 and chain_man have been repaired or further investigated. But it is #5 on the known issues/wishlist. ;-)

For updated info on the mod info please check in at the new support site as all future informational posts regards to v.1.4x mod development will be at

Define "messed up."

Payment module files generally live within their own folders (with some major exceptions, where they use shared functions...) Is this is a Google Checkout payment module that's hosed?

**Ok here is the messed up when I view payment modules in administration panel:
All I would like to know is what I did and how to fix it. Someone said I accidentally put adsense module into payment module, ok well how do I take it off? as I went back into payment module and thought I deleted it but obviously missed something. That is why I was wondering if I could reinstall the whole payment module again without messing up all my items? I am new to zen cart so obviously I need step by step how to take it off as I tried myself and worked for hours and its still messed up. Please I don't want to start the whole thing all over again.

As a start, it appears that you should re-copy the files in:
/home/croz/public_html/shop/includes/languages/english/modules/payment

The files in that folder appear to be missing or corrupted. Use the original set that came with the stock zen-cart.

Next - if that doesn't completely solve the problem - take it outside of the Google Checkout thread, as it appears to have no bearing on this module.

Good luck.

THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO GET SUPPORT FOR THIS MOD! ...all discussion and support of this mod takes place the dedicated support group
http://groups.google.com/group/google-checkout-for-zen-cart-mod-support

Actually this is not at all the case Kelvyn.

This thread in the Zen Cart support forum continues for all those still running the v.1.3x mod. The new support forum link you posted is for those running/testing v.1.4x.

Many have opted to continue working with mod version 1.3x until v.1.4x is out of beta, and/or a zip file of the latest version becomes available, and/or is deemed/labeled "stable".

(alpha/beta/stable release version labeling is a hornet's nest in it itself but something I don't wish to get into here).

Woody

Thank you.

Woody, of course you can edit and use it, no need to ask me.

I'm just glad this explanation is useful for others.

Hi

v1.4Alpha3 is out in the SVN please read this post
