Payout

Using Jamroom

Paypal it is.

Payout

Using Jamroom

I understand the paying out process. But don't you need to configure a paypal account to use? Where does that happen?

Also, does not answer the question about alternate payout methods. Here the issue:

I'm using foxycart and stripe to process transactions. Stripe handles the payout using transfer api. This is good, at least in the U.S, because it pays directly to bank accounts and the fees are lower than paypal. However, it does not work internationally.

Im trying to figure out how to support both. I mean, I thought the goal of switching to foxycart was to be able to to support other payment processors in order to support users who couldn't or wouldn't use paypal.

Ideally, the user should be given an option to enter paypal payment address or enter bank info for payment. The the payout script pay accordingly.

Is there documentation on the payout functionality of the foxycart module? I see some fields in the foxycart tools menu and the payout threshhold but not much else.

I assume it's using paypal masspay. Where does that get configured? And how do I integrate an alternative payout system?

Foxycart fees

Using Jamroom

It would be extremely valuable if someone could provide a flowchart with the current transaction process with the hooks and all the tables where data is stored.

Brian, were you able to add that hook after the transaction is processed and received from Foxycart?

It seems if you want to make sellers responsible for foxycart fees, you would have to do it after payment is received from foxycart but before calculating store fees and paying out to artist.

Are foxycart fees automatically deducted from a transaction (along with the payment processor fees)?

CDN

Using Jamroom

Yes, you would push to storage (s3) but cloudfront pulls from s3 if there's a cache miss.

So, wouldn't I have to re-write some of the core templates to make this happen? What happens to those edits when I try to update the core templates with a new JR release?

CDN

Using Jamroom

Slightly incorrect; but my fault for improperly wording the question.

You don't re-direct to the cdn. You DIRECT to the cdn. However, you don't upload your assests to the cdn. The cdn does a reverse proxy to your server to grab the asset if it's not in their cache.

So, basically I want to be able to have all static assets (images, listen audio, tpl files, etc) come from the cdn. In order to do that, you have to have all the pages that reference those objects request them from a different host. So you need to re-write links to all jpg files to http://cdn.mysite.com/images/filename.jpg instead of http://www.mysite.com/images/filename.jpg.

The ideal would be a CP setting to define the base URL of all static file types.

Using Jamroom

Is there an easy way to configure jamroom for a cdn? Usually static objects are re-written to a special host name, e.g. cdn.mysite.com, and all objects requested through that host name are cached and delivered by the CDN. Jamroom generates the url of objects dynamically. How can I redirect static objects through a different host?

Amazon s3

Using Jamroom

Has anyone set up Jamroom using Amazon s3? I'm looking to separate the storage of media files from the storage used by the main app on the ec2 instance. I'm wondering if there's a way to do this

Yes and your last response there was:

"More info on this will come in the future - I'm not able to get into any real details at this time, as it is not supported currently, and things can certainly change. "
