Reward Points Module for ZC v13x

dscott1966:

Hem,

everything is fine, except one thing when i do a test purchase and the points are pending, when i do the status change they just stay in pending it does not upate and send them to earned. i tried advance and simple.

how do i correct this?

Did you copy over all the latest files as per my PM???

Also is there away to give reward points for new sign up.

This (and reward points for referrals) will be in the next version which I will start working on once all the issues with the current version have been resolved.

Ken- that's as it should be. I've passed a 0 value to the reward_points_display. I'm going to talk to the author of the Google Checkout mod and see if we can't remove it from the actual checkout, but for now at least it is not coming up as a chargeable item.

Here's a quick hack of the googlecheckout.php which adds the reward_points_display module to Google Checkouts list of Order Total mods to ignore. Unfortunately is list is hard coded rather than databased hence the code change.

Just extract the php file to includes/modules/payment/

Thanks Hem

This change works great. It no longer shows the Rewards points line in Google checkout like before.

I don't know how familiar you are with Google Checkout but it works different than most payment modules. Once the customer goes to Google Checkout (they don't log into zencart) they don't come back to the site. Thus, checkout success page isn't hit. Zen cart gets a notification via responsehandler.php that a purchase was made and passes all the info on the order to zencart. It doesn't seem that something is getting triggered to award them there points when their order is created after notification from the responsehandler. Though it does show how many points were awarded on their invoice.

I have Reward Point Status Track set to:

Pend: [Pending, Processing, Google New, Google Processing] Earn: [Shipped, Google Shipped]

I have both Pending & Processing set because I had a problem with it changing from Pending to Processing so fast that it was like it was never in Pending status and didn't award points.

Thanks
Ken

Ken, I've checked it out and it's because the responsehandler does not call any of the ZenCart notifiers. As the "store points awarded" code is hooked to NOTIFY_CHECKOUT_PROCESS_AFTER_ORDER_CREATE_ADD_PRODUCTS this is never called and therefore no points get stored. I'm afraid that it's something the Google Checkout team will need to address.

Thats what I was afraid would be the case.

Just one more question on Google Checkout. Do you think it would be possible in some way to pass the info to Reward Points via Google Checkouts AddThirdPartyTracking in googlecheckout/library/googlecart.php (around line 389)? I know that is what JROX affiliate module has to do. an example line for JROX is:

$cart->AddThirdPartyTracking("www.YOURDOMAIN.com/JAMINSTALLATION/sale.php?",array('trans_id','amount' => 'order-total'));

Thanks

Okay- check that your bespoke code is not handling the reward point lines and somehow this is screwing up your bottom line when calling the CC authentication.

thx .. i really appreciate it. i'll check with my developers .. thx

Hi, my hosting provider uses the following version of the mySQL database : "MySQL 4.0.26-standard" (as reported by Zen).

Is this compatible with the Reward Points module?

Many thanks in advance.

EDIT: I have just checked and I have the option of also using MySQL V5 with my provider. Will that work ok and do you think it will cause any issues with Zen if I migrate the current database from V4 to V5 (there is only test data in there at the moment).

Sorry it needs MySQL v4.2 minimal. However there should not be any problems using v5- Migration should be trivial too.

Andrew,

Did the ver1.12c solve the paypal PIN problem?

Thanks :smile:

I'm hoping PayPal sorted the IPN problem.

Is there a way to have the reward points based on the net figure after previously awarded points have bewen deducted from the gross rather than always have the points awarded on the gross purchase?

Jim

Is there a fix yet for it not calculating correctly at review order stage?

Sub-Total:$125.00

Postage: $9.00 ( 6 - Incl $5.00 P&H. ):

Tax: $12.50GST:

-$10.00Gift Certificates:

-$105.50Value of Redeemed Reward Points:

$155.00Total:

By my calculations it should be $115.50 credit from the reward points and the gift certificate taken away from the sub total.

So it should be

Sub-Total: $125.00
Postage: $9.00
Tax: $12.50
-$10.00 gift voucher
-$105.50 value of rewards

$31.00

Appreciate any help. Thanks

I am still having the same issues with Paypal. If the transaction type is "web_accept", it works fine. However, if the transaction type is "unique", no Reward Points are awarded as Pending, and I have to go back and add them by hand.

The problem only seems to happen when your using a coupon/gift certificate.

I just did another test with out redeeming one and it seems to work.

So is there something I need to change for the GV/Rewards system to both be usable at check out stage?

hi,

May i know if any body have problem on the product attributes?

as i found that the script don't work very well for the product which as attributes.

e.g. product base price = USD100, one option +USD50

it will count the credit MORE Than USD50.

it seems it will add up all the product attributes price.

i use the 1.3.8a default store data to test.

any idea?

I am setting up a store where products are purchased ONLY with member rewards points.

Whenever a certain event occurs (away from the store), members receive points which they can spend at the store.

I need a way to easily give members their points, have the program add the points to their previous points, and use the points to purchase.

Is this possible with Zen Cart? Is this module what I'm looking for?

I appreciate the help.
