new payment method

Hi,

I need to use a new payment method for my shop, which is not supported in Hikashop yet.
As I understand I would have to create a Joomla plugin of type ´hikashoppayment´.
I have among others the Paypal payment method files (php and xml) as examples.

The payment method I want to implement is a Dutch method called 'iDEAL'. This is a name, and a protocol, which is used by all Dutch banks.
With this method the user has to select payment method 'iDEAL', but after that also has to select a bank.

This bank selection should be part of the checkout process.
But it seems that there is no way in the checkout process, or as part of the payment method selection, to ask the user for another choice.
Is that correct?
Or would it work to let onPaymentDisplay echo a select box?

Thanks!
Ivar

Hi,

That's indeed not possible currently. However, we could easily add a few lines of code to handle custom html for payment methods:

If you look at the file components/com_hikashop/views/checkout/tmpl/payment.php near the end, we have the possibility for the payment method to ask for the credit card information by just adding the code
$method->ask_cc = true;
in the onPaymentDisplay method.
In the same manner, we could change that code like this:
if(!empty($method->ask_cc)){
// credit card HTML fields
}elseif(!empty($method->custom_html)){
echo $method->custom_html;
}

Then, in the payment plugins, you could add to the function onPaymentDisplay the code:
$method->custom_html = 'my custom html';
and in the onPaymentSave method, get the information entered by the user from the post.

On the payment view of the checkout, we have implemented a nice sliding effect to display the credit card field when the payment is selected and hide it when another payment method is selected, and it would also work with the custom html display.

We have added the code I was talking about in the payment.php file. From next release, all the users will be able to have payment methods using custom html like this.

Thanks!
In the payment step the custom_html shows a select box. It's in the form which is posted to the next step anyway.

But the next step is confirm_cart_status_coupon_fields in my case,
and I think the actual call to onAfterOrderConfirm is being done in the 'end' step (I think).

How do I carry the value of the selected option in the payment step from the confirm step to the end step? Should I store it in $order somehow?

Thanks!
Ivar

Hi,

The $order is given as first parameter of the onAfterOrderConfirm function. You don't have to store it:
function onAfterOrderConfirm(&$order,&$methods,$method_id){
$method =& $methods[$method_id];
}

However, you're right. Once you retrieve your data from the custom html in the onPaymentSave function you should save it in the session in order to be able to retrieve it later in the onAfterOrderConfirm function.

You can do so like this (suppose that you have your data in a $data variable):
$app =& JFactory::getApplication();
$app->setUserState(HIKASHOP_COMPONENT.'.my_custom_data',$data);

Then, you can get it back like this:
$app =& JFactory::getApplication();
$data = $app->getUserState(HIKASHOP_COMPONENT.'.my_custom_data');

The lack of iDeal integration is the only thing that is preventing me from using Hikashop. If ivarvd you succeed to integrate it I will be interested if you are willing to share (even if for a fee)

I'm sorry to say that because of lack of time (need to get my shop running soon), I fell back to using VirtueMart. Integrating iDEAL was going to take too much time.
I have been in touch with the people at www.ideal-checkout.nl
They do these kind of integrations but are not available in the next few weeks.

Hi all, Nicolas

We would like to develop a plugin for the Dutch payment method iDEAL for Hikashop. This can easily be done by creating a plugin that communicates with our extensions cciDEAL Platform:
www.chillcreations.com/joomla-extensions...omla-extensions.html

Can we get in touch about this? I will send you an e-mail.

Kind regards
David

Hi,

I am really curious about the status since the last posts by Chill Creations and nicolas two weeks ago.
The availability of the ideal plugin on the short term will be really good!

Thanks

Hi all

Nicolas: I replied to your e-mail :-)

All others: if you are interested in this plugin, please contact me directly on daviddeboer AT chillcreations DOT com. I am making a list of interested users. If there are enough we will speed up develop/give it more priority compared to other extensions. Adding HikaShop is now planned for cciDEAL Platform 1.2.0 (and we are finishing 1.1.0 now).

The video's here give an idea of how it will look, but we have already done layout improvements, so it will look a lot better:

Hi everyone,

well, iDEAL is integrated!

Sorry it took so long, one of my developers got sick and hospitalized, so I eventually assigned another one and now its finally finished. I'll update the product page and add a demo video soon.
www.chillcreations.com/joomla-extensions...omla-extensions.html

It's a release candidate, and downloadable via our website if you are a cciDEAL Platform customer. If you guys have any questions, feel free to ask:
www.chillcreations.com/component/billets/tickets/new.html

I'll update you when the demo video is online!

Regards
David
