Updating a Zen Cart install from an older 1.3.x to 1.5.1. Hoping to employ a Virtual Merchant payment module supporting current version of Zen Cart and which also supports updated requirements by Elavon (as posted above April 2013).

Anyone have success using the payment module linked below with Zen Cart 1.5.1.
http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=573

Any module code updates available?

I see a business named "Zencart-Modules UK" offers to install/configure the module on Zen Cart. Any ideas if this is a reputable business and has the stamp of approval from The ZC dev team/Zen Ventures? Looks iffy as the site displays no phone number, email address, mailing address or names of principals behind the site.

I tried the old version of Virtual Merchant Enhanced Payment Module on my shop running 1.5.0 but it didnèt work.

I would really appreciate if it will be updated!

That's unfortunate. I need Virtual Merchant support.

I recently found an add-in from the 2007 timeframe called "Virtual Merchant Enhanced Payment Module". Has anyone worked on this since that time? The folks at Elavon do not list zencart as a supported ecommerce site/cart, but I find it hard to believe that work hasn't been done more recently than 2007. Is there anyone currently using Virtual Merchant with zencart? If so, can you steer me to a possible solution to getting my cart to safely and effectively "work" with Virtual Merchant. Thanks!

Same here!

I ported it myself to zencart 1.5.1. It only need 3 lines of change. There are some hard code cur values that need to be changed... Multiple currency website it will cause problems. As i work as a developer and my task was to make it work the cheapest I changed it so it works for one currency. This can actually be done via the database and is not really a bug. The other issue is that the update status doesn't work, added one line of code were it validated that it went thru. If you got a little bit of php knowledge its an easy one too debug.

I have Virtual merchant on my sites.
Contact me by PM & I can email the developer manual as it is too large to attach.

I only use one currency, could you direct me to the sections that need change? Thanks

Not sure why my last post was entered twice... Anyways, I recently upgraded to 1.51 and want to report that the Virtual Merchant module still works as before, no additions or changes were required.

I am currently using virtual merchant in v1.3.9 and want to upgrade to 1.5.1. I don't see a add-on plug in for the new version. Can anyone give me a link or recommendation on how to get the plug-in? Thanks!

URGENTLY NEED COMMUNITY'S ASSISTANCE PLEASE. A few days ago our website began producing an error when credit card payment was taken. Elavon indicates the issue is on the website's side. I contacted our web host and no server changes have been made recently. No changes to our website were made before the problem began. I cannot determine what is causing it. In addition, the error log does not even recognize the issue to provide enough information. I'm using ZC 1.5.0 and the VM enhanced payment module. Anything you can do to help get us back up and running would be appreciated. Here is a copy of the error that generates from the daily log:

I may be running into this same issue, did you make this change in the update_status function of /includes/modules/payment/virtualmerchant.php?

Hi all, TIA
I'm looking to add some js to the module (as found in most payment modules) that typing the cc should automatically select the radio button of the payment method, as of now typing will not select it and if no radio is selected the page will return a error "please choose a payment method" if another one is selected it will use that one. i have no code knowledge and i would really appreciate if anyone here can help

We had an old cart that used ViaKlix, which then turned into Converge, and now seems to have branched into Virtual Merchant, MyVirtualMerchant, MerchantConnect, Elavon... Anyway, we are moving to new ZC store, and need gateway for this. I see you guys working/worked on this. There is a Virtual Merchant/Converge gateway listed for sale at http://www.zencarthelper.com/myvirtualmerchant-zen-cart-converge-p-136.html, just wondered if this is parallel project, something that doesn't work...?
Thanks, trying to unravel this.

I tried the Virtual Merchant/Converge gateway module at ZenCartHelper.com. It's nice, uses XML...but doesn't work. I poked around, couldn't get it to work, kept returning error that Virtual Merchant ID was not specified. Not sure where the blame lies. They were nice enough to refund my money. Then, I tried VM module discussed in this thread and it worked great with ZC 1.5. So I'm set now.

I was wondering if anyone poked around to integrate the module with super orders just like paypal so that the transaction ID & details etc. are stored on the order page?
