Drupal 6 Ubercart Products with Dates for Calendar

Greetings Twin Cities Drupal Groups,

I need to create products that have date fields. Here is where the development is headed:

User selects Product A
Product A has a date/time field for the user to fill out (select the date/time for an event on the calendar). User fills in a few other fields (cck, I assume), the puts the product into the shopping cart and checks out.

Product is then 'published' as an event on the public calendar.

Linking Commerce Products to Drupal 7 Top Menus

Hi All,

I'm very new to Drupal 7 and Commerce, and am wondering how I link my products (admin/commerce/products/add/product) to my top menus (admin/structure/menu/manage/menu-top-categories)? I can't find where the list of my paths are.

One product, e.g., has the auto alias: content/vegetarian-shoes-herbert and I want to link it to the top menu: catalog/mens-shoes/oxfords.

Thanks for your help!

Jon

November TC Ubercart and E-Commerce meeting merges with general TC Drupal meeting

Because of the proximity of the 4th Wednesday to Thanksgiving this month, we'll be combining the general TC Drupal meetup with the TC Uber/ECommerce meetup on November 16th. We chose a topic that would be helpful to both. Read all about it at http://groups.drupal.org/node/189959.

Come join us to set up your laptop for developing Drupal sites locally (or help others with same). We'll explore not just the software and configuration but also how to install Drupal distributions (like Commerce Kickstart) and sites on your local machine.

See you there!

November TC Drupal meetup (ONE WEEK EARLY!)

Start: 
2011-11-16 19:00 - 21:00 America/Chicago
Organizers: 
Event type: 
User group meeting

At October's TC Drupal meetup, we decided that too many people would be traveling to Grandma's house on the 4th Wednesday of the month. So, we're moving things up a week and holding our November meeting on the 3rd Wednesday, November 16th from 7-9PM. The friendly Twin Cities Ubercart & E-Commerce group folks who normally meet at this same time in the same room have agreed to merge their meeting with this one.

Topic? A Local Drupal Development Environment Install-Fest. Come get help setting up your laptop to accommodate doing Drupal development. This includes:

  • webserver software (the *AMP stack)
  • Drupal (core + existing sites or that Drupal distro you've been eyeing)
  • code editing software (to edit PHP, HTML, CSS, JS files)
  • file and version control (communicating with your live site's hosting environment)

It's all open source and there are several flavors to choose from from all-in-one applications to using your computer's built-in software. If you've ever wanted to get this set up for yourself or help others get their dev on, please join us!

Come for the pizza, shared beverages and Drupal camaraderie.

See you there.

Location/time:
Advantage Labs Offices in the IATP Building
2104 Stevens Avenue South
Minneapolis, MN 55404
7-9PM

Which payment gateway to use for credit card processing? - Ubercart D7

I currently have my client's website set up with PayPal to handle the billing, but they want the site to take Credit Cards instead.

I know that PayPal Website Payments Pro handles credit cards, but my client has their own virtual terminal with Capital Bankcard.

I'm assuming that I'm restricted to the gateways that are available to me in Ubercart for D7? For my client who has the above virtual terminal account, do I recommend they use PayPal Website Payments Pro instead of their virtual terminal (or authorize.net)?

Any thoughts or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

How about having a newbie self learning group ... we can start with Drupal Commerce...

Hi All,

How about having a group of newbies meeting once a week to learn about one module / profile / feature at a time...

I was thinking Drupal Commerce would be a good idea to start with... good videos tuts and admin guides are available online as well... we could also do some screencasts from the newbie perspective... and extend the contribution of our SEADUG community to the larger Drupal community...
