Probably the most important thing is the quality of service I have received, both on the forums and through email. It is so great to have someone available that committed to their product and their clients.
I had a problem trying to find the token in paypal. It took ages to get paypal to tell me where it was so for anyone else who needs to know please follow these instructions.
you have to enable Payment Data Transfer, and to do so follow these steps:
Go to the PayPal website and log in to your account.
Click "Profile" at the top of the page.
Click the "Website Payment Preferences" link in the Selling Preferences column.
Click the Payment Data Transfer "On" radio button.
Click "Save."
It might say in order to use Payment Data Transfer, you must turn on Auto Return.
If so turn that on.
A confirmation message will appear at the top of the page indicating that you have successfully enabled Payment Data Transfer.
Your identity token will appear within that message, as well as below the PDT On/Off radio buttons.
As part of the Payment Data Transfer process you will need to pass PayPal the identity token, along with the transaction token, in order to display the transaction details to your customers. For more information on Payment Data Transfer, please refer to the Order Management Integration Guide by following these steps:
Go to the PayPal website and log in to your account.
Click the "Merchant Services" tab.
Click "View all Features" under the PayPal Website Payments Standard section.
Click '"Backend Integration."
Click "Learn more" in the Payment Data Transfer section.
Click "Manual."
Click "Order Management Integration Guide."
To view this guide, Adobe Acrobat Reader software is required. We recommend using the latest version available for your operating system. To download or update Adobe Acrobat Reader, click 'Adobe Acrobat'.
Once Payment Data Transfer has been turned on, Payment Data Transfer notification will occur when a user has completed their payment. If PayPal Account Optional is turned on then a new user will need to choose to continue to your website in order to trigger Payment Data Transfer notification.
If you also need notification of transaction reversals (such as chargebacks), refunds, and subscription events, please also enable Instant Payment Notification (IPN)
Hey,
you seem to be one of those who missed my last mailing ;)
FYI folks: If you purchase a single download, we will send major version updates for free - including installable versions - for the purchasers of the last 6 weeks.
So check your PayPal mails frequently because we can only send the links to updates there.
Regards,
Markus
Peace, everyone.
After frst thinking Breezing Forms is one of thouse outdated (tried the old version a few months ago), I realised that they changed a lot.
So I checked their videos and it made "click". After downloading the tool I was even more surprised and I finished my form faster than I would ever expect.
Thanks to the people from crosstec making this possible!
+ logical structured
+ many features
+ incredible response time & support
+ mostly easy to handle (-> useful samples)
- no manual yet
- easymode and classicmode problem: checkbox "add to user notification mail" for uploads only in easymode
Above all: Beside a few complaints, simply the best of all form-builders known by me, special thanks to Markus Bopp for outstanding support!
Hi,
thanks for the cool review!
To the manual:
There are several resources for documentation, also in german which I guess from your username, would be interesting for you. E.g. the german version of the Joomla! book contains a very detailed step by step howto for the classic mode.
Beside that we have video tutorials, the forum, which is a huge knowledge base and other possibilities.
But the official handbook is in progress and hopefully finished soon.
Notification mails for user uploads can also be achieved in the classic mode but in a different way ;)
Thanks again!
Markus
The classic interface is still present in BreezingForms with nice improvements such as element highlighting and draggable form area.
Easymode was a pleasant surprise. I've used this new interface to build up a multiple page form and I'm really satisfied with the result. The tabbed interface and draggable form elements really make it easy and fast to create forms. Not having to navigate to another page just to set form/element options is a huge time saver.
Form preview is great also.
Overall, nice bevy of features for a competitive price. The video tutorials, documentation and support are superb. I highly recommend this extension.
Very carrying developer that wants to help.
As far as the component goes, the EasyMode feature is a very flexible implementation which can probably, in my opinion, completely replace the traditional design.
Furthermore, this component is well worth the price, considering the quality of the component.
What is more, the support is excellent. I had a problem with upgrade process, and through an exchange of 6-7 e-mails with Markus, step by step, i got my issue solved.
Please keep up the good work!
Hi,
it still can be downloaded for free as beer (previous version). Our model is similar to other open source businesses where the previous version is for as beer while the current one should cover the costs.
In return people get better quality extensions and there is no danger a project will be abandoned (what you often have in non-commercial opensource projects).
Thanks for the review!
Regards,
Markus
BreezingForms supply an easy to use interface, that my customers can understand, and maximum flexibility for the layout. Great!
The other point is support: I have send mails to the author and I rapidly receive answers with detailed instructions. Very nice.
I will use this extension often in the future.
PS:
Sorry for my english and if you want read the error-free version, I can send it to you in german. ;-P
