Thread: Registration and Paypal payments

Hello,
I am in charge of overseeing the www.msswa.org website. We have a huge conference next Fall. I am struggling with how to set up online registration. What I would like to do is have the individuals complete the online registration form and have a copy of that sent to the registration person. However, they will also need to pay with paypal. How, can I proceed in setting up the website so I am able to do this?

Thus far, I do have the conference page set up with the online registration link - but it is inactive at this point in being sent to the registration person.

What step am I missing???

Thanks

In BV you can add PayPal buttons which are pretty self explanatory or you can get the button codes from PayPal and paste them into html boxes.

I forget the ins and outs of paypal but you might want to check that your account allows your visitors to pay by credit card in case these people don't have a paypal account.

EDIT

Sorry I missed a bit

For the registration bit, you will need to make a page that uses a form to capture the registration details and you will also have to make a success page. This page can double up as a checkout page which has the PayPal button.

What is a success page? How would I do that?

A success page is like any other page that you build for your site. It is a page where the visitor is taken when they have submitted their details. In your case you can customise this page to include a paypal button so the visitor can make a payment. If you are going to use a form to capture details then you need this page and similarly an error page.

Forms are well documented in the Tutorials. Have a look there and come back if you get stuck.

This looks good
