Was this information Helpful?

I looked for information here about variable price / donation product types, and was disappointed to find that there's not a solid solution.

I saw entries referring to using paypal donations, a QTY + $1 solution, multiple suggested levels, or contributed modules that appear to be out of date.

Given drupal's adoption by the nonprofit world, I was quite surprised at this. I have half a dozen sites that could use it. I've done it w/ ecommerce, but was attracted to your products development curve, documentation and the fact that you support (via contrib) VirtualMerchant (needed for one site).

Did I miss something, or is there still no answer for this type of product?

I am a developer, but I'm not particularly experienced with ecommerce (and not at all w/ ubercart - just loaded it!).

Is it inherently hard to create a non-shippable product where a user can enter an amount? Can anyone here point me to a working solution, code I can base something on, or at least relevant API docs?

Thanks,

Roger

Re: Donations or user-entered prices

Hi Roger, check out this contrib module.

http://www.ubercart.org/contrib/1678

There has been some recent work on this to add some options, let me contact the creator and see if he can post the current version.
