Hi Danielle,

Code seems fine, but you said you've copied this piece of html in a rich text editor. I'm afraid it's the rich text editor which disallows some html tags from being saved to the db as is. Could you try adding this piece of code to the template instead of the rich text editor and see if that works?

If you want to make sure the rich text editor doesn't change the html being submitted, I'd go for a multiline textbox dataype instead of the rich text editor to make sure the html is saved as is

Cheers,

/Dirk

Thanks for the suggestions, Dirk! Unfortunately, I still can't get it to work. And now, the macros I had set up from Contour aren't working either. Any further suggestions?

Resolved the issue, had to have someone rewrite the code, this is what they used:

<form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" target="paypal"><input value="_s-xclick" name="cmd" type="hidden" /> <input value="0? /><input type=" name="on0? value=" type="hidden" /> <input value="USD" name="currency_code" type="hidden" /></form><form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"><input value="_s-xclick" name="cmd" type="hidden" /> <input value="9YVDX3RMZVGQE" name="hosted_button_id" type="hidden" /> <input name="on0" value="Registration Type" type="hidden" />Registration Type <select name="os0"> <option value="Individual">Individual $10.00</option> <option value="Member of Team (must have 2+ on your team)">Member of Team (must have 2+ on your team) $5.00</option> </select> <input value="USD" name="currency_code" type="hidden" /> <input alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_paynow_SM.gif" name="submit" type="image" border="0" /> <img src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" height="1" width="1" border="0" /></form>

Danielle

where do you put this code? on the html editor? or you created a Macro?

because I pasted the code on the html editor and didn't work.

I have the same issue

Hi MMM,

I tried a lot of different options. Nothing worked. I had a developer look at it and he said that somehow after I was inputting the code, it was changing before it was posting causing it not to work. He had to rewrite code for the button. Sorry, I don't have a better answer for you, but if you discover one, let me know!

Thanks,

Danielle

Hey Danielle,

I had to do my first paypal integration a few weeks ago and I opted for this option and its works really well for my clients business model but not sure if it will suit you.

I love it is perfect!! - would you share what you did - code and everything, I'm new with Umbraco.  

Thank you 

MMM

Hey Stephen,

Your site looks great! I would agree with MMM that I would love to see how you accomplished that.

Thanks!

Danielle

The following link is where i started, lots of good info and you can download the JS required and the following is the code...Using this method I could allow the cms user manage thier own title's, descriptions and price.

        <br class="clearit"/>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </div>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

You will also need the follwing JS at the top of your page/template...

<script src="/scripts/minicart.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript">
    PAYPAL.apps.MiniCart.render({
      displayEdge: 'right',
      edgeDistance: '10px',
      peekEnabled: 'true'
    });
</script>

Hope this helps.

Stephen I created the sxlt file

when I go to the content make a new page to insert the macro I can't see the macro.

My temples are Master page and text page, where should I insert the script.?

Thank you

You can check the "Use in editor" checbox on the macro to get it to show up in the tinyMCE WYSIWYG editor on your content page. I would imagine that you could just add this macro to any text page that you wanted to display your products. 

In my case i created a Doc type for the paypal page to list the items, i also created a template for the lessons and inserted the macro into the template..

<umbraco:Macro Alias="DoLessonVoucherList" runat="server"></umbraco:Macro>

The macro was available from the dropdown list on the Umbraco UI.

Did you remember to check the checbox for creating a macro when you created the XSLT?

S

Justin/Stephen

I did what Justin said - Now I see the macro - when I preview I can see Available lessons.  That's all

This is what I did:

* created an sxlt - that creates the macro also-

* created a template( paypal) and paste the script also I ad the micro there.

Then created a page - Pay now- then insert the macro.

did I do to many things? what I'm missing?

Thank you - MMM

You really have two ways of solving this problem. 

Method 1

1. Create the XSLT/Macro and check the use in editor checkbox
2. Create a new Text page (or whatever you default page type is)
3. Add the macro to your text page using the tinyMCE editor's add macro box.

If your only seeing "Available lessons" then there is going to be an issue with your XSLT, its not finding the items...

S

because you put the elements in a doc file?

would you show me the doc file?

Tks

MMM

I did all the steps that Justin said and I got the same results

then, I did the way Stephen said with the document type (How do I integrated the data?)

I created a tab to put the info, but still no displying the results

I don't want to give up!!!

I want to see it working

Thank you MMM

Ok we need to see the pages live and the XSLT and a diagram of the structure round your paypal items, for instance i have

Home

-------- Vouchers

-------- ------------- Voucher item

-------- ------------- Voucher item

-------- ------------- Voucher item

Each item has a title, description and price.  I get all the items via XSLT, bring back all the Voucher Items under the Vouchers document type...make sense?

S

Thank you for all your help:))

MMM

You should mark up the post as answered, can be helful to others...and High five the posts that helped solve it :-)

S

I did!!, I gave you many fives - and also to Justin. (for your time and effort )

I do not know how this works is my first time.

I have to tell you that I couldn't get it to work, I cheat I link the html - But I'm going to keep working on it.

I'm working on a localhost site, I don't think that is the problem.

Maybe is the script I put it on the PaypalPageTemplate after the macro.

You guys are great for your support.

MMM

Thanks! If you are testing on localhost, your paypal IPN notification won't work because Paypal won't be able to resolve the url for your return url. Just keep that in mind for testing. 

Yes, Once I display the items I'll work on the page

Thank you

Another thing to try is making a code block section (something that can take HTML and JS and use it as markup rather than actually displaying the "<"'s and such) in your doc type and template and paste the markup into that.

is working on a reply...
