Right now we are using paypal for checkout. It works great, shipping is fine. However, there are 2 issues:

1) we have payment pro but currently market theme doesn't support this, just basic paypal — not a huge issue, but maybe in future updates?

2) we would like to offer promo/discount codes for specials, etc. It seems, after spending time on Paypal, that this functionality should be here in the shopping cart side of things (for example, just above subtotal or whatever a box to enter promo codes), since once the price is sent to paypal that seems to be it.

So here's my question — is there an easy way to modify the cart.php to incorporate a coupon code? Is this something I should mess with, or do you envision future updates to allow for this functionality?

Also, some of our promos offer free shipping, and since shipping is calculated on the paypal side of things is there a way to handle this as well?

Thanks a bunch…

Thanks for the reply.

Okay, that makes total sense. As for hard coding into the site, I guess my questions would involve create a place for promo codes. I could probably add a field in the general market theme settings for storing the code and what it would mean (i.e. percentage off, etc.). And then I would have to add an input box in the cart for people to add the code. But the problem I envision would be errors in the code, I.e. people adding in the wrong info. This may be a bit out of my league, but I guess I can hack around with it to see what I can come up with.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again…
