I have a few questions before I start with the deployment of nopCommerce for our store:
1. If I download and deploy the nopCommerce 1.30 on the host, after that would I be required to explicitly add the modules for shipping and payment or do they come in the package that I download?
2. For getting the live shipping rates, would I be required to add the USPS, UPS modules or are they already integrated in the package and I just need to activate/deactivate them?
3. For payment processing (credit card), would that be already there or I need to add one of the payment modules in order to accept credit card payments?
1. They come in the package 2. You have to activate USPS/UPS to get the live shipping rates. They are already integrated in the package. 3. Payment modules are already integrated in the package.
I have a couple of similar 'Ecomm Newbie' questions:
If using PayPal (Express) - is there anything I need to set up in my PayPal a/c first, such as a merchant number? Also, where do I configure the application to use my PayPal account - is this in the 'Administration/PayPalExpress/ConfigurePaymentMethod.ascx' file?
If I want to allow users to simply pay via c/card without necessity of logging into PayPal - is this the 'Manual Processing' option? This seems almost too simple to be true... is there anything else I need to set up / be wary of?
P.S. I'm very impressed with this application of yours! :)
