Paypal not showing the details

The first two shirts on this page: tshirts.php

enable a customer to choose the city or country or state that they want printed on their shirt. While the php code functions in that you can clearly see the location they've chosen on the cart.php page , when you get to the paypal page where they pay, the location is not listed in the details part of the paypal page near the top. How do i fix this so that we know to send the proper item?

Thank you,
Chris

It looks like you are working with Payments Standard. I was able to get to the PayPal site and see the contents of the cart minus the two options.

In order to get the options listed you will need to add them to the options fields that are in the form on the confirm page. In here look for the lines of code that look like this in the form:

<input type="hidden" name="on0_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" id="on0_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" value="" />

<input type="hidden" name="os0_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" id="os0_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" value="" />

<input type="hidden" name="on1_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" id="on1_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" value="" />

<input type="hidden" name="os1_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" id="os1_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" value="" />

Yours may be named differently if you have named your cart differently. These are the option name and value fields. For the on0 field you should set the value to 'size', then for the corresponding value of the option in os0 you should set the value to the size binding from your cart.

For on1 set the value to 'location', then for the value in os1 set it to the location column from the cart. If you have any trouble with this post back with a copy of your confirm page.

Hi Eric,
Do you mean do this:

<input type="hidden" name="on0_<?php echo $sushicart_Index+1; ?>" id="on0_<?php echo $sushicart_Index+1; ?>" value="size" />
<input type="hidden" name="os0_<?php echo $sushicart_Index+1; ?>" id="os0_<?php echo $sushicart_Index+1; ?>" value="size" />
<input type="hidden" name="on1_<?php echo $sushicart_Index+1; ?>" id="on1_<?php echo $sushicart_Index+1; ?>" value="location" />
<input type="hidden" name="os1_<?php echo $sushicart_Index+1; ?>" id="os1_<?php echo $sushicart_Index+1; ?>" value="location" />

I understand to put the word size in for the on0 value and location for the on1 value, but not sure what you mean by putting the value from the binding from the cart page. Can you please clarify exactly what goes in os0 and os1?

Thanks,
Chris

If you select the os0 and os1 fields you can see the values for them in the property inspector. If you use the lightning bolt icon here you can set the value to any of your bindings. You should expand the eCart bindings and choose the corresponding columns. Here is an example of what the size would look like:

<input type="hidden" name="on0_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" id="on0_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" value="size" />

<input type="hidden" name="os0_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" id="os0_<?php echo $eCart1_Index+1; ?>" value="<?php echo $eCart1->DisplayInfo("size"); ?>" />

Great. Thanks for making it clear Eric!

Can you please help me to understand why the shipping is not calculating for multiple items? I have tried to get help, but no response all day on this. Thank you,
Chris

Are you passing the shipping values in with the cart or are you calculating the shipping based on your PayPal settings? The PayPal options to configure the shipping costs are very convenient and easy to use. Let me know what you are experiencing and how you have it setup, if you are working on this issue with someone else and have made any progress please let me know the details so that we are not duplicating efforts.

Eric,
Thanks so much for getting back. Okay, here's what I did, I set up the code for shipping as in the pic attached and confirm.php code attached.

I didn't set up paypal to do this. but if you can tell me how to, that would be great.

we wanted so much add a fedex option for customers, but i don't know what the Meter number is that is asked for when i go through the ecart panel to add Fedex.

Hey, if you will help me get this configured, I will PayPal you a hundred bucks right now. My client is just so frustrated with me. I know it's after hours where you are, but man, if you can help me just configure these last couple of things so i can deliver to the client today, i'll pay you to walk me through it. We just want it to work today.

I have looked at the code on your page and it looks like it has been configured to work with the weight for each item that you have in the cart. What is the result that you are getting with the multiple items?

If you would like to add in shipping from PayPal you can configure this in your profile. You can set up flat rates or based on a few options. Here is a link to the page with more info:

For adding FedEx you just need to obtain an account and meter number, you should be able to get this from the FedEx website. Adding this in after the fact would require you to check on the charge rule to ensure that it is listed and you would also need to update the cart display on your confirm page. If you are going to use FedEx it might be easier to backup what you have now and just run the checkout wizard again.

Eric,
Can you please see my post in the "Shipping Not Calculating Properly" thread? I don't want to break the rules and repeat it here...

Can you please tell me how to delete the shipping calculations from ecart? That way I can just configure it from Paypal. I tried entering in the relevant data to paypal, but i think maybe I was supposed to delete the usps shipping from the php code in my site first?

I have found that by putting multiple quantities of the same item in my cart, the shipping as I've set it up now goes haywire and charges hundreds of dollars for shipping 30 of the same shirts within the USA?! If I go an order 1 shirt, then continue shopping, and go add another shirt (same style), the calculations work normal. It's only when I put say, 20 in the quantity field, the it does this overcalculation thing.

Thanks,
Chris

I made a response to the other thread, no need to update this one in regards to the other thread, it should come back to me once you respond.
