Some Functionality Questions

[ChrisI]

Hi,

Very good looking application so far. The ability (and support) for defining your own custom payment gateways is what caught our attention. Just a few questions on other features which we couldn't identify in the demos:

1. Is it possible to request additional information from the user during registration? Where looking to collect something along the lines of an ID number.

2. We'd like to have one description field the user can only enter once during the initial add and is read-only afterwards. Any further information can be added later but once only and will be presented in a separate field - would something like this be possible?

3. Am I correct in believing custom payment gateways can only be added with the development version of the software? If so, if any of the above functionality isn't present will we receive support while adding them ourselves in the demo version?

Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Best regards,
Chris

Yes, there are 3 extra registration fields already built into the software that you can customize within the admin to show, require and name.

It's not built to be read only, however you could possible do that within the template. I've not tried doing that though.

No, since you would be creating the gateway yourself. As long as you follow the requirements for required files and appropriate syntax for the calls within your sr.php file and the payment gateway folder.
