The problem: On the checkout screen, when I press the "Next Step" button, it gives me a 404 page not found error. It gives me a strange URL: wordpress/?mod=order&action=addFromCheckout. I Googled this URL and apparently others have had this issue before, but I did not find a solution.
Also — is there a way to get rid of the "Add To Cart" button so that only the "Buy Now" button is displayed? Can I also customize the button to say "Pay Now" instead? I do not need a shopping cart, just the checkout (read below for clarification).
Some background info: I work for a small tax preparation company and we recently got a merchant account with Authorize.net because our clients wanted a way to pay us with credit cards via our Wordpress website. I installed Ready! E-Commerce and purchased the Authorize.net SIM payment gateway plugin, hoping that I could easily create a portal to our Authorize.net terminal. I realize that Ready! E-Commerce is more geared for products with set prices instead of our situation where all of our clients get different bill amounts, but this plugin got great reviews and everyone said it was very customizable, so I hope that what I am trying to achieve is possible. Basically, I want the process to be like this:
1. We prepare a tax return for a client.
2. We send the client our bill, for example $100.
3. The client goes to our website, clicks on our "Tax Services" product.
5. Client goes to checkout and it sends them to Authorize.net via the SIM payment gateway.
6. On the Authorize.net terminal, client enters their invoice amount ($100), and then their billing and credit card info to complete the transaction.
Well I hope all of that made sense, and that I'm not crazy for trying to sell services instead of products with the Ready! E-Commerce plugin. But in any case, for now I am stuck on this checkout error!
