  1. Have you looked into the add-ons that allow for free pricing? - I'm sure there are a few in the add-ons section. Then you could test your total, and this would make a 'free payment' module active, which they would tick to progress. Also, another idea might be the SPPC (customer specific pricing) module? You can categorise your customers, and give them free prices on certain products for a period if you wish. It might be a bitch to integrate, but it works very well. One last little thing (you're a newbie, so I'll be gentle): please don't put I NEED HELP in capitals bold etc. It makes you look like a TXTing bogun from Sunshine :)

     

     

    I also want to be able to do this. I want to give a discount coupon that gives a free download. Fine if they purchase something in addition. But, if they only want to redeem the one coupon, and their total is $0, then they still have to enter a credit card. I want to be able to bypass the credit card requirement if the total is zero.

     

    I've searched high and low and cannot find a contribution that meets this need. I searched again today based on your suggestion that there is an addon that does this, but haven't found it.

     

    Do you know what contribution / add-on will do this? Bypass the payment part of checkout if the total, after discount, is zero?

     

    I tried:

     

    "paymentFree"

    http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/6447

    But this just makes an additional payment option of Free. So, with my $20 order, I can either enter my credit card, or check "free" option and checkout without paying. Don't understand why someone would want that.

     

    "Free Of Charge Payment Module"

    http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/3342

    I read that This is based on the total product in the basket, so it does not include discounts.

    I installed it and enabled it, but it did not show up during checkout. I didn't work at all for me. Don't know why.

     

     

    "Skip checkout_payment.php when goods value is ZERO "

    http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/3747

    Doesn't work. Too simplistic, too old, not sure. This would be good if it worked.

  2. I am having a problem with the download feature. With Download by redirect Disabled, if the Mp3 file download is larger than 42 MB, then only a 1 kb file is downloaded. Anything less than 42 MB works fine. With Download by redirect Enabled, then any size file (even larger than 42 MB) works fine. But, in my browser anyway, with Download by redirect Enabled, the file takes a long time to download into the browser cache, and then wants to play in the browser with Quicktime, instead of prompting me to download the file. I realize I can configure my browser not to automatically play an Mp3 file in the browser, but there are a lot of customers who will not know how to do that, and it will cause problems/complaints. A large zip file downloads fine, but all my downloads are MP3 files, thousands of them. I don't want to zip them all, plus Some customers are stupid and don't know what to do with a zip file anyway.

     

    This size limit problem used to be 33.3 MB. Then I had to move to a newer server (for unrelateed PCI Compliance reasons, moved from PHP4 to PHP5) and now the limit is 42 MB. So, maybe it has something to do with the server settings?

     

    I just want it to prompt to download the MP3 file, and download it regardless of the size.

     

    So, what exactly is Download by redirect?

    Why do I have a 42 MB limit with Download by redirect Disabled?

    Anyone have any clues or answers?

     

     

    Thanks for any help.

     

    Maguai - did you try enabling Download by redirect?

  3. I'm using the download feature successfully, but found a problem. If the download file is over 33.3 MB, it does't work. The customer just gets a "page cannot be displayed" when the download link it clicked. Anything less than that size works fine, anything larger than that, it doesn't work. So, I found in phpMyAdmin, products_attributes_download, the following information:

     

    Space usage

    Type - Usage

    Data - 24,088 B

    Index - 9,216 B

    Total - 33,304 B

     

    So, the 33,304 B looks like the size limit of what I can have as a download file. That's the same as 33.3 MB, yes? Hmmm, maybe not. Anyway, these numbers, if you look, are not editable. I thought I could just increase it to 100,000 B and fix my problem, but I can't change these numbers as far as I can tell.

     

    Any thoughts?

  4. My store has been working fine for a year using Linkpoint API. My host recently installed a new secure certificate. Since then, I get this same error. Looking in Linkpoint, I don't see any transactions at all since the the certificate renewal. Below is the output you requested in debugging mode. My host looked into the certificate and can't find anything wrong. Linkpoint was no help. I don't know what to do to make this work again. Any help would be appreciated.

  5. Great Contribution.

     

    I have every state in the US set up as regions with their own shipping tables, that's fine. But I would like to make any other country other than U.S. to be just one rate. So, any country that I have not listed, just charge the same high price. Can I do that, or do I have to actually list every country in the world as a region with it's own shipping table?

     

    Also, if the country is not listed, I thought that the customer would be able to check out anyway, but not charge shipping. But, clicking on next just keeps the user at the shipping screen, doesn't go to the credit card screen. Isn't the user supposed to be able to check out anyway?

    Thanks!

  6. I downloaded and installed phpMyAdmin, and used that to change the numbers. Whoa, look at all that database info...now we're cookin'... glad I looked into that. You're right, phpMyAdmin will be indispensable in working with OsCommerce. Thanks for the other info too.
