Payments on node creation form

We recently posted two screencasts that demonstrate how to configure the Pay, Donate and Authorize.net modules to create donation forms and attach them to content on your site.

The second screencast, available at http://www.advantagelabs.com/easy-content-specific-payments-drupal covers your specific question. That blog post and screencast reference the previous screencast which covers the basic configuration steps in more detail. We recommend watching that one first. It is available at http://www.advantagelabs.com/node/1123/.

We've also begun to create written documentation on drupal.org. There is a page -- http://drupal.org/node/1044170 -- in the Site Building Guide that covers the same material as the first screencast. We'd be interested in your feedback and help in creating more and better documentation on how to use the Payment API and related modules. Info about your use cases, documentation on your experience and any edits or new documentation pages you can provide will be most helpful to all of us, developers and users alike.

Thanks!

I think I understand where you're headed. The functionality you are looking for is available when you enable the Node Payments module as described in the second video I referred you to: http://www.advantagelabs.com/easy-content-specific-payments-drupal. You just need to enable a different option from the one I used in the example.

The settings you need to configure are located in: Site Configuration > Payment Settings > Node Settings (available if you have enabled the Node Payments module as demonstrated in the video). Under "Available node payment models" on this page is the "Node creation" option. Make sure this is checked. This will allow you to configure the Payment settings in a specific content type to append a payment form to the node add form so that a visitor needs to complete a payment transaction at the time of creating the node to submit the node content. I think this is the behavior you are looking for, right?

The part of the video that shows where this configuration is located starts about 4:30 in. While I did not demonstrate the Node Creation option in the video, you should be able to find this option, enable it and explore the configuration for your content type to use it.

Hope this helps!

It took me a while to work out how to get the form showing up on the node creation form and currently not entirely sure how I did it.

I know the payment form isn't showing up for uid#1, I needed to make sure I had a separate bowser with an anonymous user setup with permission to create node and also make payments. I also had to configure the node to take take payments on display and then disable the display option as it doesn't work with both. Can't even have different content types accepting payments in different way. It appears I need to choose side wide to only accept payments on node creation or node display.

I think the pay on node creation needs a bit of work. There is also no way to set a price on each node content type.

Actually the reason that node create doesn't work is that the code is commented out in includes/pay_node.admin.inc

I am working on this code so will try and upload a patch.

I also am wanting this functionality and working to get it fixed. Lets chat on #drupal_pay IRC channel, or collaborate more here. I've checked out of git from master and found all of Vauxia's and Jeremiah's latest fixes....thanks!
I found a few typos in if() statements that only have one '=' instead of '==' on lines 243 and 250 of pay_node.module. I hope to get a patch file together by the end of the day.

I've created a Google Doc for sharing notes about the Pay module, I hope to build up some documentation about the various moving parts of the API:

One issue with payments on node creation is that if the payment fails the node should not be created, at the moment it still gets created.

I think that should be an optional setting--I bet there are some cases where the node still be created.

The following is a patch of the changes I have currently made to pay_node to get payments on node creation functional.

Very, very interesting patch.
I also spent some hours to figure out how to view payment form on a node/add page.
I tested the patch, but it gives me only price and comment fields. And it makes disappearing the full menu of payment options from the content type section.
I'm also unable to get webform_pay to appear in the node payment forms, I only get "donate". I like this module, more than lm_paypal, but I like to see it fully working!
If I can test anything else, let me know. Thanks

Applied the patch. The donate form was included to the create Node Form with only the amount and comments fields. However, user not directed to the Paypal for payment after node submit.

The Paypal redirection for payment for donate form included in the Node Display works.!!

Thanks.

I have also started some documentation work at #1193276: Developer documentation that really needs some attention.
If we all cooperate here we could create something great :-)

In drupalcon denver 2012, there is a slide showing a kickstarter like micro-payment.

Any how/tips to create such a scenario.

What about Drupal 7? Is this module reliable?
