P.S. Use PayPal Profile Based Shipping is NOT selected but the shipping rate still does not go to the Paypal cart.

Please advise.
Thank you
Lisa

I am using the flat rate shipping cost. The shipping rate shows up in the cart on the website, however when it gets to Paypal, no shipping cost shows up in the Paypal cart. Please advise.

Thank you kindly.
Lisa

Hi Ice Bear and Jeff, Unfortunately this feature is only available in the eStore plugin. With the simple shopping cart we have tired to keep it lightweight an very easy to use.

Great plugin. I have it integrated with NextGen Gallery. However, I do have a question. The site that I’m creating is for an artist. She only has one of each item. Is there any mechanism to mark an item as sold after a single purchase? Thanks.

Hi
I am having a few problems. I made a page with 3 tshirt designs i want to sell. Everything seemed ok so far. I can select a tshirt and add it to the cart but if I change the quantity it just refreshes the page and the cart goes away.

The second problem is that if i want to make another selection (get another shirt) it refreshes again and the first shirt no longer shows up in the cart.

I am unable to provide you with a link to my page right now because my user would start trying to buy shirts if i publish it.

Any help would be appreciated. Been looking and reading but cant seem to find an answer to my problems.

Thanks so much for the plug-in. I got it working in no time. I wanted to pass along some code to some fellow users that may be helpful.

Let’s say you hard coded the Add to Cart code on your template file and need to change the price for individual products on individual pages or posts. You can do so by using a WordPress Custom Field. The following example works the the custom field of “price”.

&alt;?php $price = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘price’, true ); ?>
^^^Above the loop in the template

&alt;?php echo print_wp_cart_button_for_product($name, $price); ?>
^^^In your template

I hope this can help someone and I’d love to hear Ruhul’s input.
