Is Phpay a good choice for a english only reading web developer? I am not seeing much English in the forum and because I only speak English, I fear I will not be able to read much of the support threads and examples.

Andreas,
I didn't see an English example sites. So it was harder to analyze the PHPAY product. As my German is very poor.
I am trying to decide between a PHP/SQL ecom like PHPAY or a Macromedia Dreameaver Extension ecom product. I would love to hear from folks if they have a preference and why. I would be doing simple shopping carts for companys with about 20 items or less. I don't want anything too powerful that would be complicated to integrate into a site.

Why don't you see the index page? And which index?
Sure is: Choosing default language English, works only for shop. Not nice. In admin it starts with German and you have to switch to your favourit language ... I have to fix it.
Can it be, you deleted all other languages from your database? Admin starts with language-ID=1; if it don't exists, that can be a litle crash and no text at all appears except error messages (failed to include ./lang/.inc.php ...)
Fix: Enter with phpMyAdmin or similar in table 'language' a entry with ID=1 and necessary data for your favourite lang.
Independent of this all: Which texts do you need? Can you mail them directly to me?
Greetings,
Andreas.

I wish to set up a shopping cart on my site for just a few items to start with. I do not fully understand everything, usual story, new to all this.
I have provision for a database on my webspace and the control panel gives me the following information. Host, port, database name, user name and pass word.
I have set up a forum using phpBB2 and entered the database info above and set up was successful.
I have now loaded phpayv2 up to my server and in the form for phpay where it asks for database details I tryed using the same information I used for my forum.
However this does not seem to work. Does it meen that a second database has to be authorised by the server provider with new user details.

- phPay's install routine has some problems with register_globals=OFF. If you use this setting, you have to create config_db-files by hand.
- If you have allready a database, you have not to activate checkbox to 'Create database' ...
- Forum and shop should work in one database, because I think phpBB2 uses other table names (hope so, I know them only as phpBB2_*). If names are not different, you have a problem.

Hello again, I am trying to set up a simple, few items online shop, could anyone tell me if this is possible with phpayv2 and are there any simple instructions in " 'plain non computer english' " that I could follow to place the phpayv2 folders and files into the correct place in relation to the root of my web server.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
- Extract files from archiv,
- upload them to your webspace,
- change permissions (usaully with your FTPclient),
- call http://path/to/phpay/admin/
- enter database access data
I'm teaching myself everything by trial and error, It's very difficult to know where I am and gets confusing.
I've uploaded phpMyAdmin and done some editing of config.inc and I get the following message.
Access denied for user: 'root@infong144.kundenserver.de' (Using password: YES)
Would it be I have not yet entered all the correct information or do you think I have not got server access rights.
I do find it difficult remembering all the correct terminology, as I'm trying to get my forum and guest book to work corectly too and wander between them all as and when I get stuck.
Thankyou, sorry I'm unable to use better words to explain more clearly my problem.

You are welcome! Ask in English and the answer will be readable for you ;-)
Don't fear.

Maybe the online demo has only a small english part, but it has and also most parts of its admin-area is translated. http://phpay.de and http://phpay.de/admin/index.php?langID=2
When I have more time, I'll expand the english online demo.
I have this question too. When I trying to modify page to english, too many deutsche words on admin page. of course, I can't see the index page.
Why don't you see the index page? And which index?

I'm not sure, what you need ...
- Extract files from archiv,
- upload them to your webspace,
- change permissions (usaully with your FTPclient),
- call http://path/to/phpay/admin/
- enter database access data
http://phpay.de/admin/help.php?langID=2#installation
If something went wrong, you can create config-files by hand and create database structure with phpMyAdmin.

Sure you not entered correct access data in config_db.inc.php files (2 files: one in shop-drectory and one in admin/)
