Categories to checkout with PayPal Only

I am thinking on Renting out Category space to People and was wondering if their was a way that a Category could be set to pay PayPal only ?
Then I could charge a monthly fee to them and their Orders would be Payed to their PayPal Account.


Thanks, Gary

Re: Categories to checkout with PayPal Only

It would be relatively simple to disable all non-PayPal payment methods at checkout if certain items (inventory items) are in the shopping cart.  Can you limit this by inventory item, or does it have to be by category?

It can be limited to inventory item but it would have to be were I can put a different PayPal E-Mail address so the Payment would go to that Customer that is Renting the Space.

Not possible.  You're better off making these items Not For Sale product offers in the store and using PayPal buy it now buttons that point right to PayPal from your product pages (with the right seller email in the links).  Ie: Bypass the online store.

Re: Categories to checkout with PayPal Only

Make the product offer type Not For Sale which will basically disable selling it.  Then add the PayPal button code to the long description.  You probably want to target a new window when the button is clicked.  This can be done by adding rel="external" to the <form> tag.

Re: Categories to checkout with PayPal Only

When I add the Code it looks like this :
rel="external"
<form target="paypal" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="V2PRUVSSHZY3E">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_cart_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!">
<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
</form>

Show this on the Page. No button

Re: Categories to checkout with PayPal Only

You want the first line to read:

Code:

<form rel="external" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">

Re: Categories to checkout with PayPal Only

still just show this code in the Long Product Description after you submit it.

<form target="paypal" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="V2PRUVSSHZY3E">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_cart_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!">
<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
</form>

Re: Categories to checkout with PayPal Only

You're saying when you view the product offer page in the store, you see that code and not a button?

Re: Categories to checkout with PayPal Only

is it definitely in the Long Description, not the Short Description.
Long description accepts xhtml whereas short description doesn't.
