 CuteNews Paypal E-Shop |
 |
Working on a new site I have and designing the template I came up with the following idea.
This would maybe work with a paypal shop.
Usining cutefields to add
Price = {cf:price}
ID code = {cf:itemIDnumber}
Description = {cf:itemname}
Image = {cf:image}
I have put a possible template below with the cutefields above in it
 | |
<table width="500">
<tr>
<td colspan="2">Category: {category}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><div align="left">
<h3>{title} </h3>
</div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="187" rowspan="3" valign="top"><div align="center">{cf:image}</div></td>
<td width="301"><strong>Description</strong><br />
{full-story} </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><strong>Price </strong>£{cf:price}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="your@paypal-account">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="{cf:itemname}">
<input type="hidden" name="item_number" value="{cf:itemIDnumber}">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="{cf:price}">
<input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="GBP">
<input type="hidden" name="lc" value="GB">
<input type="hidden" name="bn" value="PP-BuyNowBF">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but23.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">
<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_GB/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

The form code is the paypal button info.
It could be a good way of building a paypal shop and might even work with other payment gateways , using there button codes.
I havent tried it but it should work.

That does work, I did it with XFields before. Same idea exactly. The only thing you aren't allowed to do is open the shopping cart in an iframe. It won't let you finish processing the order form.. so no money will ever be made. I wanted to be able to click 'add to cart' and have it open in the same window without loading a new paypal screen. But, oh well. I always wanted to make a little paypal shop but I have nothing to sell :-/ reselling drop-ship items is ridiculously expensive and I always see people breaking even so I'm out of ideas.

If you can get it to work re post. A lot of people on the cutenews.com site want a flatfile shopping cart off cutenews and this could be a good base/ start.

Kirby, his code looks correct I'm sure that'll work as is. Just tweak it up a little to match the look of the site it goes on.
Neither his method or the XField method are going to work for regular cutenews though. If they want flat-file shopping cart they should try cutenews.ru lol why complicate things? It's sitting here waiting for them on an extremely accurately named thread.
Didn't someone make xfields for cutenews?

I guess the main question would be why aren't those cutephp people updating to cuteru?
