Hello me RCnutterz and Thundercrew have made a basic and easy to use Paypal Shop with ACP management. So you can add items on your forum for your members to buy. It includes a homepage with the shop catagories, the option to add your own categories/items with the items image and description. It will also have direct link to Paypal where your forum members can pay for the items easily and securely. It also has the feature of only registered members can buy items from your forum so guests can browse your shop, but can not buy until they register to your forum if wanted by the forum admin.

Demo:
N/A for now
Phpbb Version Tested On: 3.0.0 upto 3.0.5 (guessing it would work on 3.0.7?)
Style: Prosilver and Subsilver
Download:
BETA V0.0.1: http://www.imod4fun.com/PaypalShop0.0.1.zip


Current Features :
*Shop homepage which lists catagories links
*Edit/add items through ACP
*Add categories through ACP
*Add items into categories
*Shop homepage with list of unlimited categories
*Clear text and titles
*Pictures with enlarging option
*Image 'Lytebox' (images open as a pop up)
*Only registered members of your forum can buy items
*Any price of your choice with direct connection to paypal
*You can put multiple items in the basket

Next update features (when I get some help from other developers , if you can help please PM me!)
*New layout!
*Stock level management
*Language (UTF) support
*Separate catagory management (aside from within item)
*State amount of stock you have for each item and the item auto hides when it runs out of stock
*Auto image resize (so only one image is needed)

Faq:
How do i add global postage rates?

How do i change the shops payment currency?

Code: Select all

Go to \FORUMPATH\styles\YOURSTYLE\template\ppshopcats_body.html
Within this file find:
<input name="currency_code" value="GBP" type="hidden">

Replace the "GBP" with your wanted currency code (EUR,YEN etc...)

Then go to \FORUMPATH\language\en\mods\ppshop.php
Within this file find:
'PRICE'                   => 'Item Price (GBP)',

Then replace the (GBP) with (EUR) etc.

Oooooh, just what i have been waiting for. Nice one.
watching this one VERY closely

is the paypal 'basket' page able to have multiple items in?

[Abera]

This does look good!
Dittos to rcnutterz
Can't wait for this one.

[ibelphegor]

It's look really great!
I think the option to add Category image will be super!

Exellent!, thanks for all the positive comments

any way here are some reply's to people who have commented :
@rcnutterz
Yes, the 'basket' can take multiple items

@Abera
Thanks will be released soon (possibly before christmas, if i have time ) but this is one mod that will be released and NOT abandoned etc...

@ibelphegor
Can be done, but will not release it with it as i need to keep it as basic as possible. This is because it is manually edited with html so need to keep it easy, thanks for the suggestion though

Also if any one has a fix for the '£' sign mystery on the categories it would speed up the process of releasing it as the £ sign keeps coming up with a question mark instead of the pound sign

Thanks

Sounds great and again, can't wait for this one!
Thanks Jak01

On the mystery sign you might want to look at this link. Just a googled site. Hope it helps.

cool thanks, but still have not solved the '£' sign mystery . Very fustrating but im sure ill get there.

Jak01

[Abera]

Sorry...

[jak01.com]

Thank you for giving the link. Its just that it still does not work.

Still shooting in the dark. I know nothing about any of this, but did find another link.
Maybe?

[vellatechie]

really really nice mod.. i dont plan to sell to put too much stuff through my forum, this mod seems perfect for me

@Abera
Thanks for the help, but i managed in the end. Its a looong story, but basically it was down to pages not updating and the HTML "£" sign code.

@Vellatechie
Exellent, glad you like it. It's exactly for people like you with small amount of stock to sell
oh yeah, and i PM'd you back
