eCart Checkout Wizard - Site Settings - https or http for site?

eCart Checkout Wizard - Site Settings - https or http for site?

In the Site Settings section of the eCart Checkout Wizard, should we be specifying the https or http versions of our domain or does the Payment Settings section handle that.

Also, relating to the Payment Settings section, "Enable In-Context Checkout" isn't applicable to us in the UK, is that right? It was just that it mentions "SSL required" so I wondered, seeing as we have that, if we should be ticking it. I KNOW it says "U.S. only" but it's worth asking I've found. ;o)

In the Orders section, saving to database, what information do I use to populate the OrderShipName, OrderShipAddress etc?

In the preset example it uses, for OrderShipName for example:
<?php echo(WA_coalesce(array(WA_getSavedFormValue('CheckoutWizard_NewFromBlank_Default','First_Name_2'),WA_getSavedFormValue('CheckoutWizard_NewFromBlank_Default','First_Name')))); ?> <?php echo(WA_coalesce(array(WA_getSavedFormValue('CheckoutWizard_NewFromBlank_Default','Last_Name_2'),WA_getSavedFormValue('CheckoutWizard_NewFromBlank_Default','Last_Name')))); ?>

Should I be using "eCart Checkout Form" in the Dynamic Data list and, I assume, the shipping form fields, not the billing?

When I complete the order table binding, assuming I have things correct above, and try to then do the bindings for the order detail table, it doesn't show me my list of tables in the "Table" list?

This kind of relates, I wonder, to the fact that there is a wee bug/glitch in the initial order table binding section whereby I have to select the table before the one I want to actually use. Would appreciate your help as I keep stumbling into dead ends where I'm sure I'm following the map correctly.

Thank you.

Yes, on the site settings tab, you should enter the https address for your site.

No, the incontext option is only available for the US paypal API, it is not availbale for the UK API.

Yes, for the order information, you should use the eCart Checkout Form in the Dynamic Data list. if you have columns in your order table to store the billing info, use the billing form elements, columns for the shipping info should use the shipping element bindings.

for the order details bindings issue, try toggling the connection to none, then reselecting your connection.

So, basically, I'm going to have to run through the whole Checkout Wizard again thus wiping everything I've done over the last two days? :(

I'm really struggling to progress with eCart. I have spent a week trying to get the checkout section to work, without success, and now I'm going to have to wipe everything I've done and start again because of glitches in the extension.

I copied, with a few additions, the Order table from the sample database you directed me to. There are no fields for Billing information in that table and, now that we're discussing it, I'm realising that there should be, shouldn't there? Why are they not in the example?

Regarding the order details bindings - is this a bug?

I'd really appreciate some help because our site is in an utter mess.
Thank you.

PS. Just checked confirm.php and pp_confirm.php and BOTH are trying to write to the wrong tables, using the completely wrong information despite our work in the Checkout Wizard.

At a complete loss as to how to progress.

PPS. Checkout Wizard not working at all now.

rerunning the checkout wizard is not the answer, I have covered this numerous times already.

you started another thread for this, unecsaarry, but i asked for contact information in that thread.

What is the point of the wizard if we just have to go in and hand code every page it creates?
I really don't understand its point.

nowhere have i suggested hand coding as the solution to editing pages created by the wizard.


the wizard is used to initially create the pages.

if you need to make changes to the pages, you edit the server behaviors that the wizard generates.
