e-Commerce Module

Hello everyone!

I have used e-Commerce module on several websites and I have to say it's a time saver! The API is so great, you can achieve anything!

Here in my agency we offer hosting to our clients and billing was done manualy via PayPal until now. The number of clients has increased and I want to make something automatic for that purpose.

I started today experimenting with default e-Commerce installation, planned to utilize EC Recurring for this purpose. I never used it before, so started by creating Schedules.

Flexicharge allows a lot of customisation via custom.inc provider files, but it requires multiple product types for applying different charges to products. Duplication of product modules to create new product types seems like a hack just to be able to assign a different Flexicharge rate based on the product type. It also makes updating difficult if you have many copies of the same basic product type.
Adding new postal rates isn't possible for 'site administrators' who don't know Drupal module coding, and only want to set a new shipping rate for products.

The proposal

I think it would be cleaner to provide a method for selecting a particular Flexicharge preset on the node/edit form. This can be included with the current weight option in the Flexicharge options on product node forms.

This also means products can have the charges changed to a different rate, since the charge is not specific to the type of product.

I am writing changes to the Flexicharge module (for EC v3.4 the current stable release) and a custom.inc and would like some opinions on whether this is useful?
Does anyone involved with Flexicharge.module think this is a bad idea?

Hi guys,

Instead of removing items inside the shopping cart page, is it possible to remove items directing from the 'block' menu?

Here's how it would look in the block menu.

3 Items in Your cart

X Item one $1
X Item two $2
X Item Three $3

Total: $6

X = Remove item link or button.

Any help would be appreciated.

hi to all,
i'm a newbie! and i'm italian ok, so please sorry for my english.
Well, i'm triyng to do this: an user come to my site, upload his photos, choose the formats and the papers, pay me and then i send him his photos printed.
Can ecommerce do this?
upload -> choose options about -> pay. I don't need multiple album managing: just one album for each user.

Well, you're job is great: i've tried a lot of different solutions but you're the best, i think.
I hope to help the community and the community help me.

Enjoy to all,
any suggestion is precious

thank you

I am attempting to sell service subscriptions with EC and its up an running with a service product. The product is a 30 day service which is enabled via role assignment, i have the reminder to fire 7 days before then. All of this works perfectly, my concern is this:

Hi, new to drupal/e-commerce, but not to PHP.

Is is possible to configure a store that allows logged in users to buy stuff on an account that can then be settled at a later date?

If so, what modules should i use to achieve this?

If not, then how could this be achieved? Drupal is such a huge project.. where would i start?

I have been looking around for an EASY way to create a content type (lets say a report request for house values); this would require a person to fill out the content first, then hit submit. Upon submitting the content type has been added to the cart and the user can select to check out and pay or continue shopping.

The idea is that they can fill out the information at ease and then pay, instead of paying first and then fill out and also, it should be possible to do this without having to register or buying role credits, etc.

Hello,

In my drupal ecommerce, i need to edit a invoice until its sent. Because i need to add the serial number of the product into the invoice for every product that customer buy.

Exist any module for do that or a way to add this function in the invoice module?

I think that is needed for the business that sell informatic products and others products that for garanties need a serial number.

Thanks for all.

Hello there!
I´ve recently installed ecommerce, and frankly I think it´s just too much for what I need. It seems far too complex. But as I need a good, solid, stable module that can manage recurring payments and scheduled reminders (and only that), using eC seemed the obvious thing to do. :)

We administrate online courses in a Drupal Platform, and the student´s payments are manually managed outside Drupal.
We have courses that can be paid in two or three (monthy) times.
