I'm testing out my shopping cart using the ZenCart module and I start out by going to my gallery (http://www.bordwayphotography.net/gallery/v/alphonso_wedding/) selecting a photo and from the pulldown I select 'Add Photo to Cart'. And it does just that. However, I don't see a Checkout button to go to ZenCart at this point. Just another pulldown with actions like Update Quantities and Empty Cart but not Checkout. How do I get that to show up?

Also, how can I lose things like Print with Shutterfly and the like? I don't think I want that there.


Gallery version: 2.2.5 (I think)
PHP version: http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php
PHPInfo Link (see FAQ): http://www.bordwayphotography.net/gallery/lib/support/index.php?phpinfo
Webserver (e.g. Apache 1.3.33):
Database: MySQL 5.0.45
Activated toolkits (e.g. NetPbm, GD):GD
Operating system (e.g. Linux): Linux
Browser (e.g. Firefox 2.0): Firefox 3.0.7

FAQ: What information is required when I ask for help in the forums?

Sorry Dave, It is v2.3. Not 2.2.5.

Got an update. I tried again and I noticed something. There are three choices to the pulldown for each photo in the gallery. First is the one I had already used. Add Photo to Cart. Which adds it to a cart, but not Zen Cart. The other two take you to Zen Cart. I noticed it due to the fact my template completely changed. The two choices are Selection:Add Item and Selection: View Items. This is very confusing to me since I can't understand why I would need to have the first choice since it doesn't work. Also, the verbage, Selection: Add Item is going to probably confuse a lot of people since it doesn't specifically say to add items to a shopping cart. How can I correct this?

Don't you have to deativate the stock cart module for the other cart modules to operate?

Yep. That's what I needed to do. Now I just have two options. Selection: Add Item and Selection: View Items. Now how can I change the text? I'd really like something more descriptive.

The template files that came with the particular module you are using.

Hi
I'm looking exactly at the same thing. The word Selection is very confusing here. What I really would like to do is just to have an add to cart button on the screen and this should add the item to the zen cart.
However, what happens is, that if I have the standard Cart module active, then the item goes to the standard cart. If the standar cart module is inactive the I get the infamous security warning and bad-parameter message.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
