The payment window now has a ‘Zettle’ payment button. The idea is that at the time the member uses the Zettle card reader to make the payment they also send the MemSec their person details.
This might work for the occasional payment, but certainly won’t work if 20 members want to renew at the first lecture of a year in September.
Can you connect any information to a Zettle payment? Card number could work for renewals.
Added slides of the pages, dialogues and emails seen during the process. Please comment
First version here.
Halfway house between all-singing-and-dancing e-commerce system with products and a cart, which would be complex, and wouldn’t do the job, and an absolutely basic arrangement where event attendees were simply asked to send money to PPal@CAS.
A remaining issue is how to distinguish the various payments (social events and membership purchase and renewal) in the PayPal activity log.

Tidy up ncvp-cas-form plugin here.
Still to do
Move complete directory (without .htaccess, which probably wasn’t doing anything) to root subdirectory here.
Change PayPal from live to sandbox.
Easy to add a standalone page to a WP site. Shame the reverse is not possible. Unfortunately it doesn’t appear in the sitemap.
Re-direct xmas.CAS to main site. Use
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=https://www.cardiff-astronomical-society.co.uk">
One line in header, no messing with .htaccess or DNS records. See W3c article
/talks – Next talk details
/talks/past – list of past talks
/talks/future – list of future talks
Click on any row in either list to get the talk details.
c. 40 talks entered, but there’s no reason why they shouldn’t all be added if anyone wants to.
No search facility in the lists at the moment.
Issues:
Now ‘CAS web development’ to reflect more general tests.
