e-Commerce Module

Okay, I gave up waiting for someone else to do it for me ;)

I made a linkpoint module for e-commerce and got cvs permission from drupal to post:

http://drupal.org/project/ec_linkpoint

Really could benefit by having some members try it. It appears to be working, I am using it to have subscribers pay invoices... Would like others to try with shipping and other goods also... It it rough with a lot comments, but it is something!

Hi everyone,

This is my first post in groups, so hope you are all doing well..

I need to set up a website with paid membership where after payment users will be able to edit their profile fields provided by Content Profile and use the Blog in their profiles. As far as I found out, to do this I have to create a role with appropriate permissions and upon payment that role should be given.

I want to use D6, so that I can benefit from extended features of it.

So far I couldn't make eCommerce beta3 and Content Profile work together for this on D6.

There have been a lot of bug fixes as well as the a complete rewrite of the checkout. The checkout ATM is only a single page and options like changing address and payment type have not been put back in. These are going to use the #ahah feature of the new formapi to allow users to change much easier. I am going to put back multi page checkouts, but this will be done by configuration and not be forced on the site admin.

The checkout api has completely changed and is now much more modular and should allow for much better formed functions.

I've been playing around with the recent dev versions of the new ecommerce suite of modules and I'm amazed by how tight and also how expansive the new ecommerce framework is.

I'm just getting my head around how it all works together - I'm aware the checkout has some work to do, but, I'm impressed with what I've seen so far - - in particular the inclusion of the advanced Views.module and Rules.module integration which blows wide open the scope and capabilities of ecommerce with Drupal..

Hi,

Just a quick anouncement. I have tagged up eC v6.x-4.0-beta1 for people to start playing with and finding the bugs in.

Currently the checkout is a bit iffy but I am going to rewritting the checkout to take advantage of the new formapi and allow for a bit more functionality and being able to customize exactly the way you want it.

Lastly ec_charge is not in yet but that will be comming soon as it will allow you to create any additional charges that you want.

Hi,

I have just about completed all the views integration for e-Commerce v4 and because this is really just maniplating views configurations I was wondering if there are some people out there who can create more default views which can be added into e-C.

If you want to help just download the latest HEAD release from CVS and you can start creating views to allow store owners and customers to access the e-commerce information.

Once you have finished just export them and add them to the issue queue.

If there is anything missing that you would like to be able to do just raise an issue.

During Drupalcon Szeged, we spent a lot of time talking about how to handle VAT. Unfortunately I have only a slightly better idea of VAT today as I did before I left for DrupalCon. I would like some input from people in the community who work with VAT on a daily basis.

I'd like to try and answer the following.

1. What is VAT
2. How does it work
3. How should VAT be handled by ecommerce companies inside and outside Europe

Using this information we should be able to support VAT with Drupals commerce systems.

I'm not sure if the e-commerce module is affected by this change/update but we just received this email the other day about some major changes on how Authorize.net is handling transaction id's. Not sure if a patch needs to be created or not.

In early October, Authorize.Net will be expanding the range of Transaction IDs issued by the payment gateway. Please read this e-mail thoroughly as it contains important information on how to ensure that your account is not affected.

Hi,

I know that not much has been happening in e-Commerce laterly, but I am stating to get back into it and have committed a new version of ec_charge module which will be much more powerful in that it will be able to replace a number of module like tax, and shipping, and also reduce modules like coupon, and allow global discount codes from import strings or cookies.
