Iris Market Builder works with the Mals-E shopping cart system. You can sign up for a Mals-E cart at http://www.mals-e.com. Once the cart is activated and configured, you will need to make a few changes to the system for Iris Market Builder to work properly with the cart.
This is the *minimum* you must setup. If you'd like you can also customize the colors, shipping options, etc with the instructions on the Mal's website.
1. Access the Mals-E cart (there is a link within the store administration area).
2. Append the cart variables as described below:
|
Log in to your Mals-E account.
Select "Cart Set-Up".
Select "Button Styles and Behaviour".
Make sure the box marked "Append cart content vars" is selected.
Save your configuration.
3. To use inventory control, order tracking, wish lists or gift certificates, set up the remote call page as described below:
Log in to your Mals-E account.
Select "Cart Set-Up".
Select "Remote Calls".
Add the page yoursite/go/finish.php, where you replace "yoursite" with your actual site name. ie.) If your site is windywillows.com, use www.windywillows.com/go/finish.php.
Do NOT add http:// to the beginning of the URL.
Do NOT select "Debug mode".
Save your configuration.
IMPORTANT: If you use PayPal on this site, you must follow the PayPal setup instructions to make sure a customer is taken back to the cart after an order!
4. Test
the setup by placing a few test
orders, using gift certificates, wish lists, or inventory control. Also check to make sure your order came through for order tracking.
