Hi Earl,
Randy,
Do you know what email address this will come from? It might be nice to know ahead so our spam can be set accordingly. Sometimes I'm in a hurry and just delete what's in spam, I know I'm not alone.

I'm pretty sure that Chance said he was going to use the ADMIN portion of the Group Buy System... I kinda hope he does, since we've never actually tested a mass type email like this from the system before... Yeah, I've sent up to 5 to the various address' that I have as a test, but I'd still like to use it in production to make sure all is well... I really don't think there'll be any issues, but you never know until you actually use it...
If Chance does decide to use the system to send out this next email, I have aliased it to where it appears that it is coming from him, just like all the other mass emails before:
musicians.workshop@gte.net. SO, there shouldn't be any "new settings" of any spam filters that anyone has setup... If you were getting the previous emails from Chance, and you have registered in the system, you will receive these emails as well...
Oh, did you see the comment I made about adding shipping address and info to the User Detail section? Just checking. So much goes on.
Yes, I saw that, and I had spoken to Chance about that when I first built the system, if wanted for me to include shipping info as well... He didn't feel that it was neccesary since the checkout process will be handled via PayPal and you have to put your shipping address in there...
The way I have it in my head that it will work, is:
You'll view your PRODUCT INVOICE via the User Console. It will show you a total price,
LESS the cost of shipping. You will then proceed to checkout via PayPal as usual, which will send a notice of payment to Chance
with your shipping info included. Chance will then log into the ADMIN section and mark your
PRODUCT INVOICE as
PAID. He will then box up your items and calculate shipping costs. He will then log back into the ADMIN section and enter your shipping costs, which will appear on the home page when you log into the User Console. At the same time when Chance inputs your shipping costs, this will cause the
SHIPPING INVOICE button within the User Console to become active. By clicking it, you will be taken to another invoice that deals with shipping costs only...works and looks just like the
PRODUCT INVOICE, but only checks out shipping costs. When payment is made to cover the shipping costs and Chance receives the confirmation email from PayPal, he will then log back into the ADMIN section, mark your shipping as
PAID, and enter any other info that he has at that time, such as shipping date, tracking number and delivery carrier. I have also included a space for him to add "notes" about shipping specific to each person... SO, he may enter a special note in that area that will also appear with the User Console for you to view...
If anyone forsees a problem with the flow of this, please let me know and we'll work to correct it...
Thanks!
Randy
