Ubercart Paypal Tutorial - Ubercart Tutorial Part 2

Hooking Paypal up to Ubercart isn't too bad, it's just a matter of knowing what to configure. In this Ubercart PayPal tutorial you'll learn how to create a PayPal business account and set your Ubercart store up to receive payments through PayPal.

I keep things basic and show how to use PayPal Website Payments Standard with Ubercart, as it's the easiest to set up. The standard option redirects to PayPal after checkout, so all credit card processing is done off your site.

This is the second part of a three part series. For more information on installing and configuring an Ubercart store see part 1 - Installing Ubercart: /ubercart-tutorial-part-1. The next part will show how to configure shipping quotes for your Ubercart store.

This is a great tutorial, a no nonsense way to set up an eCommerce site quickly. Thanks for the great post. BTW, "Silly hats only" so funny.

@hozzyk Thank you! I can't take credit for the Silly hats idea. If you liked that check out Don Hertzfeldt's rejected on youtube.

@jdixon567 I know all about rejected, It isn't referenced nearly enough.

@hozzyk Awesome, glad to meet another Hertzfeldt enthusiast!

Jason, AWESOME Tutorial!!! You are a great teacher. Mobilize your drupal site would be my next pick for a tutorial. Peace.

@seandakid Thanks! There are some tools you can use to develop mobile sites in Drupal, although I haven't used them: drupal.org/project/mobile_tool­s. With this module you can detect the device they're using and either redirect them to the mobile site with a popup (Would you like to visit our mobile site?), or switch the theme to a mobile friendly theme (ie hdrupal.org/project/mobile). If I get some time down the road this would be a good tutorial, thanks for the suggestion!

Hey John, I don't think you can have users view their order without them being logged in. The system wouldn't be able to tell which order belongs to each user.

Everyone would have access to everyone's order, it'd be mayhem!

Can I setup Ubercart so users don't have to login to view their order.

Hey there,

These videos are for Drupal 6, and Ubercart 2. If you're using Drupal 5, you're probably using Ubercart 1. Upgrading from Drupal 5 to Drupal 6 isn't too bad, as long as all the modules you're using have been upgraded to Drupal 6. If all you have is Ubercart and the core modules, it shouldn't be a problem. Here's a guide on the subject: (remember to backup everything!) drupal.org/node/340073
