I'm setting up a website and photo album about my puppy who will be trained to be my disability assistance dog. I would like to have a paypal donation button at each photo. After a donation has been made I want the photo to be available for download. I'm thinking that after donation it automatically goes to the photo download page or there's a link to it. I don't know if this is possible to do. I don't mind if the download photo is in the website rather than Gallery.

I just hope someone has an idea about how to do this, and it's not too difficult to do.

The checkout module has a paypal option:

So I can change the checkout button for my donation button?

I've read the checkout information, There's no checkout or checkoutdownload module in plugins. I've updated the plugins and clicked on repository. There's only a cart button

Checkout doesn't do a donation button for each photo, no.

If you want to experiment with what checkout does do then please re-read *carefully* the documentation that floridave linked to. You may have missed the sentence that reads

Quote:
Checkout is in the community repository, so you should make sure to activate the community plugins box before updating the available plugins list.

Thanks for your help.

I did a search for community repository because I couldn't work out where it was. I've got checkoutdownloads installed now. That's step one done ;-)

don't forget this bit too:

Quote:
Second Important Note: The payment plugins like checkoutpaypal and checkoutemail - and all other checkout plugins like checkoutdownload etc. - require checkout to be installed as well. Install and configure checkout first, then add the other modules from the checkout series that you wish to use.

Thanks for the reminder, I did read that, but I've read so much I've forgotten some of it.
