Hi Michael & Chris, thanks for the continued input, it's great! I'm using encryptec.net as my client's webhost.
I managed to complete my first test order for a Shippable item on the Test Payment Processor. I had to: - continue past the error message at the Shipping methods stage - enter a real credit card number (actually I've realised that I could have calculated a Psuedo-real credit card number ... it only has to pass the "luhn mod-10 checksum" in getpaid.core/getpaid/core/ fields.py) So that's alright, I'm getting more confident about this working now. But more qus: 1) The site is selling DVDs - so I guess I need to make them Shippable to get P&P calculation. But FlatRateShipping doesn't appear to work out the box yet. Am I right? Is there a plan to fix this? 2) Chris you said that something (GetPaid or GoogleCheckout, can you confirm which?) meant I didn't need to take customers Credit card details over the web, and therefore I guess I wouldn't need to get an SSL certificate. a) is that correct? b) for these purposes does it matter whether I use Paypal or Googlecheckout? My webhost would be open to requests to upgrade/add known Packages, but not so open to me putting my own code/fixes up outside of that, so using overrides.zcml might be out :-/ They have lots of plone instances running on 1 or 2 zope services as I understand it.
