Configuring your shopping cart provider
A number of different shopping cart providers can be configured within
WebPlus. These are the most commonly used and some, like PayPal®, you may
have come across directly as an eBay® customer. The configuration process
directs you to the provider's own site from where you can sign-up as a registered
user.
Use the provider's website to find out more about unique shopping
cart features.
To set up a shopping cart provider:
1.
From the Quick Build tab (E-commerce category), click
E-Commerce then click on the page to place.
2. From the E-Commerce Configuration dialog, you have two options
depending on whether you are an existing or new user of one of the
shopping cart providers, i.e.
• If you're a new user, select a shopping cart provider by enabling
its radio button, then click the Sign Up Now button. The
provider's website is shown in a new browser window from where
you can register with the shopping cart provider.
• If you're an existing user, enable the button next to your chosen
provider, and click Next>. This option simply sets the default
provider for your site (rather than set up a provider account).
3. The dialog is provider-specific and may show different options. As an
example, choosing PayPal lets you define (via dialog) an email address
to receive payments, cart handling charge, and use a "Sandbox" test
tool for trying out your shopping cart before going live. Click Next>.
For Sandbox testing, click the Find Out More button to setup a
separate Sandbox login in addition to your "live" PayPal login.
