I have set up a simple web page with numerous add to cart buttons (all created in Paypal).
When you click the add to cart button you are directed to the Paypal cart. You can either check out or continue shopping which is fine.
Is there anyway to rename the 'continue shopping' button to something else. Continue shopping does not really fit with what my website is. I would like for it to be renamed 'Add another service'.
Alternatively is there a way to add the product to the cart without displaying the cart itself each time and then the user can continue to add products from the page they were on. Once completed they can click the view cart button and review the cart then.
Any help you be appreciated,
Graham

I would like some recommendations about open source or other solutions for processing one or more items collected using PayPal's shopping cart button. Thanks.
At this point, I am researching, looking for possible solutions.
Logically, PayPal's "add to cart" and "view cart" buttons suggests I will be sending an array and they will be returning verifications for that array. If that is true, I can use Javascript to generate a page with the appropriate images and links to access the purchased items. I will focus on PayPal's articles about the shopping cart data.
Almost any ecommerce shopping cart ever made is compatible with PayPal Checkout, so you can essentially use anything that suits your other needs.
Start with searching the web or PayPal's Partner Directory
I'm using paypal cart itself, not outside party's. I have buttons working to put things into the cart. When pressed, the cart comes up in a new tab. (I set it to _blank for new tab instead of _self.) However, I don't want the cart to come up at all when they press "add to cart" button. I want them to stay on the page and add everything before going to the cart.
Any way to do this?
Thanks!!
PayPal's Website Payments Shopping Cart is designed to work one way. You add an item to the cart, the shopping cart screen is displayed, from there, you either continue shopping by returning to the web site or checkout. This behavior is by design and there are no features or options to change it. Depending your web browser, the shopping cart will open in the same window or a second window. There are tricks to change how it opens but you cannot stop it from opening each time.
If you go with a 3rd party shopping cart, most have their own built in features to control the cart behavior and you only see the PayPal Screens for the final check out. Also, note, most mini-carts are also designed to work that way.

Can I add a Donate button as one of the multiple items for PayPal's Add To Cart option?
A quick Google search seems to indicate the answer is "no".
That is correct you can not have a Donate button as part of a Cart. However, you can have a donation item that can be added to your cart.
An example would be A Theatre Group's donation page. The Left button is a Donate button, the Right button leads to a page with 3 types of donations and optional membership levels which are submitted to PayPal as a Cart.
If you click the standard Donate Button on the left, you go straight to PayPal to make a $10 donation.
If you use the right button, fill in any of the fields an click update, the fields are validated and then you can click the PayPal button to send the cart information to PayPal.
I have a list of items on my site that can be purchased, each with a generic Paypal 'Add to cart' button. What I need to be able to do is to collect info from eight additional fields - I've done this in the past on a page with just a single 'buy it now' button via on0/os0, but I don't want the customer to have to enter this extra information on every item they add to cart as it will be the same for every item on the order. Ideally the eight fields I need would be put on the Payment Page, but from what I've read Paypal don't allow this.
What would be the neatest way of doing this? If there was only one form on the page I can see how I could easily do it, but as each 'add to cart' button is a separate form I'm a bit stuck.
Thanks in advance!
You can build your own cart functionality and then use cart upload to transmit the result to PayPal for checkout.
(Or better yet, if you can write API calls, use the Express Checkout API -- with SOLUTIONTYPE=Sole in the initial SetExpressCheckout call if PayPal is your only method of taking payments)
Basically, you have to build this sort of custom cart functionality yourself. PayPal will gladly process the payment with the information you then send, and that is all.
I would like to know the name of the table in which the product name and other sopping cart details like quantity etc are saved in zen cart before the payment is completed.
Once I add an item to my cart and logged out and again logged in and add another item then I can see both if these item in my cart. So I think the data is saves in database. I would like to know whats its table name.
it's zen_customers_basket. Shopping cart data are in session untill you login, once you login all shopping cart data copy to zen_customers_basket table. If you logout without placing an order then those product automatically add on your shopping cart when you login back.
