Buy Now Bug
|
I have set up a test site – trying to create my new site
I have Dukapress working, but want a quick express checkout – directly to Paypal.
To reproduce the bug should be easy.
Take a product and change [dpsc_display_product direct="true"]
to [dpsc_display_product buy_now="yes"]
Then UPDATE and VIEW product.
on my system the [dpsc_display_product direct="true"] goes to checkout page
BUT [dpsc_display_product buy_now="yes"] starts a LOOP which may never end? and creates a ton of pending orders!!!
THIS IS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO:(from Dukapress documentation)
Adding a “Buy Now” Button
If you want the product to have a “Buy Now” button instead of “Add to Cart” then use this shortcode instead of the one above:
[dpsc_display_product buy_now="yes"]
This will display a “Buy Now” button that will direct the customer straight to PayPal and by-pass the Checkout page completely. Please note that at this moment this button only works in single product pages and not the Grid products page.

By the way – I would also like to add a custom field to a digital product “Product Key” which the customer supplies THEN on the Thank You Page I would like to generate a “License Key” field – from the Product Key.
I can do the license generation, but not sure how to work with DukaPress, so that DukaPress would enter the “Product Key” in the orders database.
Any ideas?

BY the way – can you somehow allow editing of our OWN posts?
I hate to live with my AWFUL heading:
“Buy Now for single product not creats tons of pending orders”
This is what it should look like:
“Buy Now for single product creates tons of pending orders”
thank you again

Not sure what to say. We had started fixing it but we later tested it and it seems to work.
Look here: http://dukapress.org/demo/products/carved-goat-head/
We haven’t been able to reproduce the bug since

OK the issue seems to be a FireFox related issue
The BuyNow works in InternetExplorer and google Chrome but not FireFox
BUT
YOUR http://dukapress.org/demo/products/carved-goat-head/
site has the following code:
var flag=0;var SalePriceLabel1=0; //whether ie or ff
if(navigator.appName==”Microsoft Internet Explorer”){initialCost=SalePriceLabel1.value;flag=1;}
….(REST LEFT OUT)
so my question is WHY?
Why does my site not have it?
Is there a procedure to follow?
OR is there a suggested plugin that I am not aware of.
sorry
I cannot post a link, since my test site is not yet public…

No worries mate! Happy to help.
BTW is there a way to get the paypal(or other) customer’s transaction ID
This is useful/needed for online content delivery.
Otherwise how can I verify that the customer is the customer?
e.g.
Customer pays paypal.
Customer is redirected back to site or returns later
If anyone else returns and uses the payer email, they can “jump the queue” and get the content.
The content is not delivered by email, as content can be huge.
YES they have to know or guess the payer email – so not a huge problem.
But that is what I worry about.
The customer must supply a key, but everyone is provided a key, which is validated against payment by the payer_email.
I want to validate a key against a customer provided transaction number also
YES I get a transaction ID from paypal, but I would like to get the Customer’s transaction ID from Paypal so I can tell a pretend customer, from an email address.

‘ello
Unfortunately this capability is not presently in DukaPress.
To add it in you’d have to modify the code. Sorry for the inconvenience.
