[Bounty: 4.75 BTC] Run a test store using the osCommerce Bitcoin Payment module

[weex]

Hello folks,

In the interest of getting this project tested, I'm starting a bounty to the first person other than myself who uses the osCommerce Bitcoin Payment module available here : https://github.com/weex/oscommerce-bitcoin

The store must be publicly accessible and should offer something cheap(<$2) and preferably downloadable so people aren't turned off by the cost to test it. osCommerce handles downloadable goods so it shouldn't be too big a stretch to get working.

The bounty address is here if you want to contribute: 1D3NrskpzB5Ydzs2RByDavbqqenbksgNoB

Thanks,

weex

What is the license on this software? 

Looks cool!  Interested in seeing the store when it is up.

[weex]

Sorry I haven't had a chance to do it but it'll be gplv3 for as much of it as I can.

It is now licensed under GPLv3.

I don't run an osCommerce store, but I'm able to sell physical goods for $2. If someone wants to set me up a store, I can do it.

I believe someone already made a bitcoin plugin for oscommerce but another one never hurts. I think it would of been better if you made it for zencart or maybe nopcommerce. Oscommerce hasnt had a release in a long time many people are moving away from it. My newest ecommerce site will be running nopcommerce when I get it set up, otherwise I would of Tried testing out your module.

@globalbtc
what goods do you have for $2?

[weex]

@REF Thanks very much for the insight on oscommerce vs. other shopping carts. I am aware of and actually created this module starting with the other one. What this adds is automatic processing of received payments.

That being said, I found a module for Zencart on github that can probably use the bitcoind-handling code from this module after some research into Zencart's code and database.

That's the only thing I have listed for less than $2 right now, but I'll put some more up today.

I may pick up a copy this weekend and get it up and running if no one else picks this up.  I sell vinyl decals online, which start at about USD $3 shipped.

Just wanted to reiterate that something downloadable - could be some sort of a map to a large coffee chain  - would allow people to test this and could be sold easily sub-$2.

Weex, is the bounty for the 4.75 btc still available?, I have a  store using your module, and it is running, however it is running in test mode, and very soon I will have it in production mode, by very soon I mean less than a week if everything goes fine, and it will be selling digital good, mostly voip calling cards.
Thanks for the modules, it runs great, once I got it to run.

[weex]

Yes it is still available. Looking forward to the link.

The shopping cart is working, I just need to fix the code that deals with inventory.
Today I ran into a strange problem and had to use a backup, it was not related to the bitcoin module, it was a login problem related to oscommerce.

I have set up a display image for testing purposes, and some calling cards.

all suggestions on how to get inventory working are welcome, what I mean by inventory, lets say you have 1 item for sale, and it sells, then the item should no longer be available, but it is.

For items that do not depend on inventory, the module works fine.

[weex]

sergio, about the inventory... see my post here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=67166.msg830089#msg830089

Congratulations on winning the bounty! The funds have been sent.

[sergio]

Thanks for the bounty funds have been received.

In regard the part of the code that updates the stock, let me know when it is really, and I will test it out.
