Hi

Have a look at http://ez.no/developer/forum/developer/shop_donation . It's quite long but probably worth your while having a look.

The end result, at least on my part, was: http://www.thebutterflyfoundation.org.au/how_to_support_butterfly/donations

I ended up created a specific donation content type with a price & options attribute. In the actual content object the price is 0 and the various donation amounts are set in the options.

These will also make good reading:

Hi Bruce Morrison,
Thank you for your Answer and hoping again.
I read all the links you mentioned. Now what i did.I copied the shop module and made copy with the name Donation and with parallel /shop/basket.tpl i can access /donation/basket.tpl
I want to customize the donation module. Now Its working but when i used donate button whose link is given in line_view_donation.tpl
and link should follow template in

  <a href={"/donation/basket"|ezurl}>
      <div>
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.ngoimage image_class ="small"}
         <div class="basketlink">
                     <a class="tobasket" href={"donation/basket" | ezurl}>
                            <input class="button" type="submit" name="ngoDonate" value="{'Donate'|i18n('design/ezwebin/donation/basket')}" />
                    </a>

          </div>
   </div>
      </a>

It is going in /shop/basket template.If i make changes here it will effect to webshop for which i am using this and i want separate behavior from donation and webshop.

Hi Rana

I don't understand why you copied the shop module to do this. There are many ways (discussed the thread from my previous message) to do this that don't require such a drastic approach.

Perhaps you can outline your reasoning for this approach?

cheers

Hi Bruce Morrison,

I want to keep separate basket for both webshop and donation module and
some changes in donation module that will not effect in the working of webshop
see one website 

http://www.sciaf.org.uk/

and also site referred by you both consider donation in different way even some columns are not required used in it just to continue the shop.

Hello All,

Currently i am facing a problem that is related to basket.I want different basket for two modules one for donation and second is obviously webshop.
When i select items for donation after that items from webshop can be selected and vice versa for webshop that in real i do not want to do in this way.

But i want this deal separate. Webshop items should deal nothing with donation items.

what i think one object of basket is created and all selected items goes in to that current global basket.

Now any one can guide me here to deal the situation and HOW?

With Regards
