Hello,

I am trying to use my own buttons (gif) on the checkout page, I did manage to make them appear within the cart page, but have no ideea to specify their exact position. Any clues ? Thank you.


I am trying to implement those buttons but they all line up to the left of the basket. I have tried to find out how to position them using html, but it is all new to me, and the codes that I have tried to use don't seem to work. For instance, I tried to use <br/> at the end of the first button to make the second one move down, which it did, but this made the rest of the cart move down as well, so I abandoned this idea until I know what I need to write.

Can support or anyone who has done it before please help with this ?

Also, I want to remove the customer details form filling that is default in romancart, as I have now added a paypal express button, which would take care of this by itself, so I would like to make the checkout button act in the same way as the paypal express button, i.e. take the customer straight to the paypal page. Does anyone know if this can be done ?

I feel that making the customer fill out these details, only to have to click "pay with credit card" again when on the paypal page, is an un-needed step, and one I would like to remove from the process. I might add that this could be a tick-box feature within romancart that I am sure many (who only use paypal as a gateway), would like.

Thank you.

Hi,

We have seen merchants use CSS to move the buttons around the cart, sorry we dont have any examples of this. Maybe another merchant who has done this succesfully will be able to give you an example.

Thanks

Surely you would have people at romancart with a idea of how to do this, can't you try and help a bit more please ?

I do not know why, at romancart, you seem to be so rigid and do not want to help your customers.

This is only being asked for because you have no way to remove the rediculous form filling that is not needed or wanted when using paypal. This would be an easy thing to change but you just don't want to, so I am back trying the make the best of a flawed system, trying to remove a "checkout" button so they can ONLY press the paypal button. As you have no way to remove just the "checkout" button, I have to turn all of them off and make my own from support's suggestion.
I follow the link you give to do this, only to find that once pasted into the right place in admin, the images appears only in one place and messes up the cart.

Come on Romancart, you are letting down your paying customers with the lack-lustre support you are giving.

Everything I ask, you say you "can't do". I think it is won't do.

What about this customisation feature ? Is this supposed to make it possible without knowledge ?

More help and more help and more help please; Support is supposed to be part of the service your customers pay for, so your utmost help is what you should be giving, not working on rediculous features such as a drop down cart which most people aren't bothered about. Get the basics right first. The standard cart looks like it came from windows 98. You re-vamped the look of your web site, but nothing for your customers.

Yes, I am having a rant, because I am getting fed up of the restrictions that romancart has got for simple things like stopping a customer buying what you haven't got, unless you pay double your subscription, when this feature should be on every level of subscription, or the fact that you do not get the details of items purchased passed on to paypal. which is something I know is possible. Why don't romancart concentrate on things like this instead of bringing out new features, such as a mobile "ap". My only reasoning to this is to attract new customers instead of making the ones they have satisfied with the service. If they listened to their customers and actually did what they want, they would make their business satisfying and would keep their clients longer. I am getting really fed up with having to bend to fit the system. Rant over.

What about it RomanCart. What about a change of attitude that actually does everything it can to help it's customers instead of pushing it off to the community, or not replying at all if you don't like the question, as I have witnessed through looking at past posts. You're trying to tell me no-one in your support team knows how to align these images in your cart ???????? Come on, I do not believe this, and no one else would either.

Many people could use this information I'm sure, not just me.

I would like positive help on this please, after all, I put this though as a support ticket but got no response, just this on here, which I think is ignorant.

Hi there,

I'll get back to you later on this as need to rush, but if you go to this website http://www.simplywoodengifts.co.uk and add anything to the basket, you'll find I have set up custom buttons. Is this the kind of thing you are looking for?

Hi George,

Yes, this is exactly what I am looking for. I still have not been able to figure out how to do this myself, so if you can help at all, I would be very grateful. If you would rather contact me though my web site, that would be great as well.

Sure, no problem. I'll try and get on later tonight (once these damn kids are settled for the night!) and I'll drop the code I have used for my own site. I do have to agree with you that the cart should be much easier to customise. I have been with Romancart 5-6 years, and I was actually searching the forums trying to find an easy way to change those buttons when I came across your post. I code my own websites, and those are easier to do than changing simple buttons on Romancart! Personally, I think such a thing should have been a priority YEARS ago as I would presume most people would like the cart to integrate graphically as close to their own website. Anyways, I managed to accomplish it using <div> commands.

This is the code I have in my basket footer:

<div style="margin-top:25px"><recalculate>http://wherever your image is located</recalculate></div>

<div style="float:right; margin-top:-35px; margin-bottom: -9px"><checkout>http://wherever your image is located</checkout></div>

<div style="float:left; margin-top:35px"><continue>http://wherever your image is located</continue></div>

To remove Romancart's own buttons, just go into TOOLS/OPTIONS/BASKET and untick "Use Roman Basket Buttons"

Like I said, I'll try and make time later to post all the code I use, and where I have used it. Hopefully it might help anyone looking for similar info.

The simplest solution is for RC to allow merchants to store their own buttons in https and have the merchant show them instead of RC's grey javascript buttons. While not in rant mode at all I do agree that RC seems more interested in promising improvements which take months (or never) to materialise while having all the time in the World to implement lots of bells and whistles - which no doubt look good on a marketing list of "must haves" for tempting new punters. I am still waiting for the mobile cart to be available in more than battleship grey and I still feel that having the so-called region drop-down list on the cart page would be a real step forward - but hey I'm only a paying customer! Have a nice weekend everyone.

100% agree. A simple (no doubt) solution.

AudioAudio,

Your question below..

Quote Also, I want to remove the customer details form filling that is default in romancart, as I have now added a paypal express button, which would take care of this by itself, so I would like to make the checkout button act in the same way as the paypal express button, i.e. take the customer straight to the paypal page. Does anyone know if this


If you only have PayPal express checkout then there is no checkout button. You only need the checkout button if you have additional payment methods which require the customer to enter then details.

You can't get a checkout button to go straight to PayPal Express checkout. Your terms and conditions with PayPal are to use their own button provided.

We are still working on the customize features - the drop cart and mobile cart have not been developed as standalone features, they are effectively a useful side effect of being able to customize the cart.

Please note though that you would need to be skilled in html and probably css to design your own cart. Alternatively we are producing a number of preset templates which you can choose from.

Many Thanks
Support

Not saying this is the right way, but it works for me. Html code is weird, as closing tables can break RomanCart layout, so although it wouldn't work on a conventional website, it seems to work fine here. I just did this earlier today to see how it looked - personally I would change the logos once it went to checkout and then again to the Secure Payment page. I have quite a few sites, so I am just using a generic looking logo.

I'll leave the images location intact if you want to use any buttons, so you can see why I used certain margins etc

Remove Romancart's own buttons, just go into TOOLS/OPTIONS/BASKET and untick "Use Roman Basket Buttons"

Go to TOOLS/CUSTOMISE THE CART (or customiZe as RomanCart has it Americanised/AmericaniZed)

General Settings

Cart Alignment: Center
Background Colour for Cart Pages: FFFFFF
Foreground Colour for Cart Pages: 000000
Table Header Background Colour: C7CDD4
Table Header Text Colour: 000000
Header Code for Cart Pages:
<table width="840" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" padding="0">
<tr>
<td>
<img src="https://vault2.secured-url.com/simplywoodengifts/images/logo4.jpg" width="840" height="250" border='0' />
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Basket

Sub Header Code:

<table align='center' width='840' border='0' bgcolor='#FFFFFF' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' style='font-size: 8pt;
font-family:verdana; border-top: 20px solid #FFFFFF; border-bottom: 10px solid #FFFFFF; border-left: 21px solid #FFFFFF;
border-right: 20px solid #FFFFFF'>

Footer Code for:

<div style="margin-top:25px"><recalculate>https://vault2.secured-url.com/simplywoodengifts/images/update-cart.jpg</recalculate></div>
<div style="float:right; margin-top:-35px; margin-bottom: -9px"><checkout>https://vault2.secured-url.com/simplywoodengifts/images/checkout.jpg</checkout></div>
<div style="float:left; margin-top:35px"><continue>https://vault2.secured-url.com/simplywoodengifts/images/continue-shopping.jpg</continue></div>

Checkout

<table align='center' width='840' border='0' bgcolor='#FFFFFF' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' style='font-size: 8pt;
font-family: verdana;border-top: 20px solid #FFFFFF; border-bottom: 10px solid #FFFFFF; border-left: 21px solid #FFFFFF;
border-right: 20px solid #FFFFFF'>

Region Page

<table align='center' width='840' border='0' bgcolor='#FFFFFF' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' style='font-size: 8pt;
font-family: verdana;border-top: 20px solid #FFFFFF; border-bottom: 10px solid #FFFFFF; border-left: 21px solid #FFFFFF;
border-right: 20px solid #FFFFFF'>

Make sure you then go to CONFIGURE/PAYMENT METHODS if you want to keep you logo running throughout the payment process.
Then click on the "configure" icon.
Then click the "CustomiZe" tab (isn't RomanCart a UK company?)

Payment Page
Foreground Colour:000000
Background Colour: FFFFFF
Header:
<table width="840" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td><img src="https://vault2.secured-url.com/simplywoodengifts/images/logo4.jpg" width="840" height="250" border='0' /></td>
</tr>
<table align='center' width='840' height='202' border='0' bgcolor='#FFFFFF' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' style='font-size: 8pt; font-family: verdana; border-top: 20px solid #FFFFFF; border-bottom: 10px solid #FFFFFF; border-left: 21px solid #FFFFFF; border-right: 20px solid #FFFFFF'>

See how it goes.
