Nothing here as I've been busy working on ModernMom.com
Launching Summer 2010 - a dramatic new version of ModernMom.com - powered by Drupal. I'll post here when the new site launches.
Using Ubercart Attributes To Track Donations For Different Causes
I was prepared to deliver a 5 minute "lightning talk" at the LA Drupal meeting tonight but we ran out of time. So, I thought I would take this opportunity to start posting tidbits to my blog.
The examples that I use in this post will be related to Donations but the technique will work for any product type. Donations have all sorts of special features that "regular" products do not. Variable prices (user assigned) being the most obvious.
I really want to thank Ryan for his excellent Ubercart contributions and Commerce Guys for sponsoring development of the contrib modules that I have used here. If you are taking Donations through Ubercart, you need to check out these modules:
http://drupal.org/project/uc_varprice
http://drupal.org/project/uc_atctweaks
http://drupal.org/project/uc_op_reports
http://drupal.org/project/uc_echecknet
Now, on to the cool stuff that I added into the mix to allow me to have one Donation Product (SKU) but still track which group is receiving the donation.
