e-gold payment module (needs testing)

(1/2) > >>

Helo verybody,

considering i was unable to find e-gold payment module for virtuemart, i did the one myself.

It is adopted to downloadable products - so immediately after successful transfer customer is notified about order status schange and receives download instructions. No need to change orders status or check e-gold account by hand. Payment processor uses all the security mechanizms available at e-gold, so transactions via this payment module should be 100% safe.
It was created on virtuemarts paypal payment module base, so don't be suprised if you see much common between them.



It seems to be working, but before placing it in my online store (as well as yours)  i'd like you to test it and write some observations or errors you've noticed.

Instructions:

1. extract "attached e-gold_payment_module_4_virtuemart.zip"
2. put "ps_egold.php" and "ps_egold.cfg.php" to "administrator/components/com_virtuemart/classes/payment"
3. put "notify-egold.php" to "administrator/components/com_virtuemart"

open joomla administration page, go to components -> virtuemart
then Store -> List Payment Methods

4. create new payment method with the following info:
General screen:

Configuration screen (change apropriately):


5. In payment extra info field paste text from "EXTRA_INFO.txt"

!!! don't forget to change "STATUS_URL" link to the one where your "notify-egold.php" is.


if you found this payment module useful and would like to keep it up-to-date, please donate me at http://4298817.e-gold.com/

Thanx in advance

Hello John,

Great  - i am finally ready to update my site with virtuemart cart. And i will be trying to add egold, alertpay, moneybookers and then 2checkout. 

I see you posted this april - do you have an update since then?  I am testing using the Ravenswood Joomla server locally.

Ok i will follow up with how it goes.  One thing i already noticed in the general check out process is that the process will say "thank you" before the person actually clicks on the payment button.  That is very strange.  I have to find out how to reverse that. Process order payment first - then say thank you :-)

Richie :-)

hey,
as you can see - there are not many users who use this payment method. As far as it fully statisfies my own needs, I was not updating it at all.

Now, about check-out screen which seems to bother you - the 1st "Thank You" is only for making an order - search through the files of this payment method and you will easily find where to change that text to preferred one (or delete at all).

There is one more "thank you" after the payment has been successfuly made, when you click "Continue" button on e-gol site after payment transaction.

richie2006:
Thank you for your reply.  Besides egold have you created this for alertpay or moneybookers?  IT is very impressive that you created this.  I am sure you put this at the extensions joomla site - it would be very popular. More traffic to your site :-)

johnrembo:
Sadly not - I have not created anything for moneybookers or alertpay. I am located at eastern europe and most of worldwide services are limited in this region (limited incoming payments, withdraw problems, big exchange rates etc..) and e-gold is the only-one fully functional service.
As far as this payment module is virtuemart extension, I can not put it on joomla extentions site because it is allready 2nd level extention :\
