Overview:

Roundup is designed to support Zen Cart vendors who wish to add a charitable donation program to their cart checkout process.

Detailed Description:

  1. Checkout Payment Page User Interface
    Roundup appears as a set of radio buttons under the order total line items on the Checkout Payment Page. Depending on your configuration, the second page of checkout will look something like this:

    Zen Cart Checkout Payment Page with Roundup

  2. Checkout Confirmation Page User Interface
    Roundup appears as a line item in the order total line items on the Checkout Confirmation Page. Depending on your configuration, it will look something like this:

    Zen Cart Checkout Confirmation Page with Roundup

    If the option "I do not want to Roundup" is selected on the Payment Page, no Roundup line item will appear.


Installation Instructions:

  1. Back up everything! Try this in a test environment prior to installing it on a live shop.
  2. Copy the files from common_files into the root directory of your cart.
    Then copy the contents of the appropriate cart-specific version to the root directory of your shop. Choose the one that's closest to but not above yours. 1.5.0 and 1.5.1 should use the 1.50 folder, 1.5.2 and 1.5.3 should use the 1.5.2 folder.
    NOTE that these files assume your template name is "custom," so any file with "custom" in its name will need to be renamed if you are using a different template name. Note: If you are using Zen Cart 1.5.5 or higher, your template name will be "responsive_classic" if you have not changed it.
  3. Go to Admin > Modules > Order Total, and select Roundup. Press the Install button on the right hand side.
  4. Modify the file ./includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/roundup.php to describe your round up for charity program.
