Support Resolved Error when clicking buy button

[Pauly]

Just bought and installed add on - seems good, have setup a test thread to sell something but if the buy button is clicked it leads to a HTTP500 error page and logs a server error

Hello,

It's because you haven't configured the API.

You have to follow the tutorial for the Marketplace which uses the same paypal API, here:
http://xen-factory.com/index.php?documents/rm-marketplace.20/

It's not stated and I should state it because it's not straightforward.

Hi, thanks for the reply
I have now followed the instructions but there is one discrepancy in that there is no PPConfiguration.php file is the expected directly it instead has a .txt file ext, is this correct ??
I am assuming i need to remove txt but would like your confirmation.
FYI because the instructions are a little backwards i followed page 1 first generating an AppID and inserting into line 12 of that file before configuring API access with paypal is this ok or does anything need to be changed/reverted

FYI over at xenforo site there is a link to here for the manual which is dead, would be nice if that linked to what you linked to above and im guessing that page 1 should become page 4 otherwise if like me you have no paypal API knowledge and do not know its required it all gets a bit confusing, may help future purchasers ?

Just to confirm i removed the .txt file extension making it a php file and all is working as expected now, thankyou

Perfect, marking this as solved.

I just posted this over at xenforo site

Just installed this and working well, fits the needs of our forum.

Would it be possible to have a simple checkbox to not end the listing when someone buys an item leaving it active for someone else to buy
Ideally an option when listing something to input quantity available/stock level so if you have more than 1 of something the listing does not end when someone clicks buy but i appreciate this would be a lot more involved

Is the top suggestion feasible any time soon ? and would be happy to talk about dev costs for the bottom option, not sure how involved this is for you to implement

Hello,

Please create on post per topic.
This one is solved so i recommend creating a new one as suggestion for this.

Regarding feasibility, I have not planned an updated just right now, but for sure sponsorship for the development of the feature changes plans.
