I am hoping to get some advice on setting up for deliveries. Cart 4.60/DNN 6.0.2, paid for the cart and updates.

I am trying to get a site going that does local delivery and in-store pickup only. We are a small wine shop and don't want to deal with shipping regulations for wine yet, and most of our gift basket business is local. We are starting small and using Paypal Standard.

Where I need some advice is the Cart and checkout process. I am having a hard time getting it to handle the differences between the person doing the buying and the person we are delivering too. The shipping address on Cart and Step 1 give me a way to capture the Delivery address, but I also need to capture the person who bought it's address and email. And I need to email the notifications to the person who bought it, not the person who it is being shipped to.

Now, it looks like the email in the Step 1 is getting the notifications, and the information is Step 1 is getting passed to Paypal as the defaults, and no where have I captured the person who actually placed the order (other than in their DNN profile). I am not even getting the Payment Method screen, I assume because I am using Paypal.

 

Any thoughts or suggestions as to how I can get some more seperation between the Delivery and the Purchaser? And how I can make sure it is the purchaser that is getting all the notifications and Paypal page?

Thank you,

 

Jamie

Hi Jamie,

If you are using the PayPal gateway, the Cart will store the Shipping Information entered on the Step 1 page as the Billing Information and will also send the confirmation email to the email address entered on Step 1. As a possible solution, you could change you PayPal account to PayPal Website Payments Pro or PayPal Payflow Pro which are both direct payment gateways where the user stays on your web site throughout the entire SmithCart checkout process and the user enters their Billing Information on your web site.

Thanks,
