Any tutorials on installing authorize.net in joomla 1.0 or 1.5?

Hi ninedots,

Only upload the file to the plugins folder inside Chronoforms folder! then you can see the new plugin in the plugins list at the forms management area!

Cheers

Ok been doing this for a while but maybe losing my mind lightbulb what is required to make this pluggin work? I set it to launch before the email but I don't see anything prompting for any payment via authorize.net

So what are the requirements for this? Please advise.

Joe

Do I need to add all the fields from the pluggin to my form in order to get it into the pluggin or does it just prompt the user for this information?

Hi,

the plugin just handles communication between the form data and the authorize.net gateway, you must have the form ready with enough fields, turn the debug on for the plugin to see the gateway response.

Does anyone have a template that has already been built for Authorize .net?

Hi jbourque,

go to the authorize.net website and check their demo or test for and see what are the fields necessary, you can even copy their HTML to the Chronoforms.

Thanks Max I looked at authorize.net website and saw code for aim and server what am i looking for I added the AIM code and it does not make any sense.


Joe

you don't need the whole code, you need to know the form fields only, the HTML of the your form, then you just use the Authorize.net plugin.

Is there any special trick to getting the plugin to create the db table, or does it have to be created manually?

Hi PlayGod,

Just unzip and copy the file(s) into the com_chronocontact/plugins folder. It isn't a proper Joomla plug-in.

Hi Bob,

I've done that and it all appears to work from the administrator, but when I try to submit the auth.net plugin info for a particular form, it does not create the db table. Chronoforms has no problem creating the Stored Data Manager table for any forms, so I'm at a loss as to why the jos_chrono_contact_plugins table can't be created automatically.

Hi PlayGod,

I think this is from a pretty recent ChronoForms v3.0 install

CREATE TABLE  `jos_chrono_contact_plugins` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `form_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `name` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `event` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `params` longtext NOT NULL,
  `extra1` longtext NOT NULL,
  `extra2` longtext NOT NULL,
  `extra3` longtext NOT NULL,
  `extra4` longtext NOT NULL,
  `extra5` longtext NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

Bob

Thanks! Created the table with your SQL and it looks to be working... probably more questions to come... as usual, you are very helpful!

😀

I'll also try to reply to the questions asked of me on other threads, as I've been absent from this forum for awhile... but will continue to use successfully ChronoForms because it -- and you developers -- are awesome!

...also forthcoming will be several of the forms I've deployed for customers!
