Hello,

I’m having a rough time linking to paypal’s cart for the site I’m working on.

Seeing it did’nt work, I copied the code from a precedent site, but everything between my ee tags just disappear.

So here’s the code :

this is what I went with in the first place :

{exp:simple_commerce:purchase entry_id="{entry_id}" success="site/success" cancel="site/index"}
  <li class="cart"><a >Panier</a></li>
{/exp:simple_commerce:purchase}

and the code I copied from the older website

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="produits" limit="1"}
  {exp:simple_commerce:purchase entry_id="{entry_id}" success="site/success" country_code="FR"}
    <li class="cart"><a >Panier</a></li>
  {/exp:simple_commerce:purchase}
{/exp:weblog:entries}

Neither of them works…

Could anybody help me with this, please ?

Thanks

What version and build of EE are you using? Any extensions?

The version is 1.6.7 and the only extension I’m using is simple commerce.

fdelaneau, try adding {entry_id} right before your simple commerce code to make sure EE is seeing the entry in question.

You also may want to consider upgrading to the most recent version.

@Sue: Thanks for the advice I had a typo in the weblog, it helped a lot.

So I solved the problem but it was a bit tricky since I had several products on the page and some of them where not to sale.

In order to always display my “view cart” button I ended up with creating a phony entry and use its entry_id to make sure I always get an item on sale.

If anyone can think of a nicer way, I’ll be glad to hear about it 😊

That is certainly one way of doing it, yes. Thanks for sharing 😊 if there are any other issues, please don’t hesitate to post again as needed.
