Need help with Paypal hack integration.

[Ifmracin]

I have a basic knowledge and have most of the hack working currently.
it can be seen here:  www.ifmracing.com/gallery

What i am looking for is someone that can guide me or show/explain what it needs in order to be fully functional.
Problems I am having at the moment are:

1. Unable to load more price/size options through the coppermine config.

2. Want to clean up the description of items purchased on the PayPal screen. (having it show the directory the photo is in would be helpful)

3. Thats it for now............ Poke around and see what you find, I'm still in testing.


Thanks

1. Unable to load more price/size options through the coppermine config.

These additional fields need to be added to your language file and the database file and update database has to be run.  You will also need to add these in the modified section of the displayimage.php file.

2. Want to clean up the description of items purchased on the PayPal screen. (having it show the directory the photo is in would be helpful)

Unfortunately, the mod you implemented runs from the aid (album id) of the url and filename of the picture and therefore cannot read all the parameters necessary to add details such as directory, category, title, caption, etc.  It is an exceptional mod for the quick sell and I highly recommend it for those who just want a drop down list under their intermediate view.

Casper's mod and instructions were inspirational and very well laid out in helping me understand the relationship between CPG's design and Paypal and to come up with  an  alternative paypal mod that can be installed as a button on the navigation bar that opens a new purchase options page.  As such, it provides more parameters that can be fed into the paypal purchase description.  You may want to take a look at it.  You can test it out without installing it. Just follow the instructions on the first post.

So can I.    Earlier I stated that:

You will also need to add these in the modified section of the displayimage.php file.

It should be your theme's theme.php file in the display intermediate image section that you modified.
