Hi
Having now got a windows server up and running and set up authenticated licensing I am looking at the next stage of the process, implementing th ipn solution.
I already have a pay pal account, so that side of things is done. However as I have done very little in the way of web development I wondered if I might be so bold as to ask how you approached the next steps yourself.
1)Does one require a separate piece of shopping cart software to go with IPN as well, or is there some generic code that paypal provide for this?
2) If one wanted to implement a discount coupon (Not a volume discount as you illustrate in the help files) can this be done via ipn or again is this something that has to be done via pay pal? |

1) PayPal supply a generic shopping cart that you can use. Click on an Add to Cart button in one of Infralution's purchase pages (www.infralution.com/licensingpurchase.html) for an example of it in action.
2) Discount vouchers would probably best be handled by creating a Product Variant with a different price (and IPN item number). You could then have the customer enter the discount item number - or alternatively enter a discount voucher number that you convert to an item number on your website and submit to PayPal. There are probably other ways of handling discount vouchers but they would require you to modify the IPN source code (which can be purchased separately if required). _________________ Infralution Support |
