I'm fixing to purchase the CE4 Cart and Gallery, will someone be able to help me if I can't get it setup?

What's the URL? Have you set permissions on ttg-be/data to 755 or 777?

I can't even get in to ttg-be, it's just a white screen.

I think I have bit off more than I can chew. I should have known better.

Where are you trying to view ttg-be? As the developer of ttg be, I can often work things out just by knowing where you're trying to put it, even if it comes up as a white page.

Thanks Ben, I uploaded ttg-be to my website but when I go to access it the screen is just white. I don't know if it helps, but I use yahoo web hosting. I looked last night and the way my web hosting is setup it's usin php 4.3.11 and that doesn' support PDO, sqlite, pdo_sqlite. But php 5.2.12 does. If I change these will my site still function?

Your site definitely won't function with PHP 4. Yahoo shouldn't even be running such an old and unsupported version.
Give PHP 5.2 a go and see whether that gets you past the white screen.
Matt and others may know more about Yahoo hosting and whether it's a good PHP citizen in general.

Ok I changed it to 5.3, the only one it allowed me to change to and I can log in. One hurdle down, Thanks Ben

Ok, just transferred cart to the ttg-be folder on my site using filezilla and 2 files would not transfer after multiple attempts. the files are ttg-be/cart/application/skeleton/.htaccess and the other ttg-be/cart/.htaccess_disabled

That's strange. Any particular message you're getting?
Those two files aren't strictly needed. .htaccess has been superseded with htaccess (no preceding period), and .htaccess_disabled is for functionality that has yet to be built, and is unlikely to be any time soon.

It's says critical file transfer error. So I setup a small shopping cart but I was wondering. after I click on the thumbnail is there a way to have the items for purchase to show up under the photo instead of having to click on the cart first?
Offline
There isn't a way to do that.
Offline
FYI, there's mention of htaccess files here: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/yahoo-web-hos … sions=true
I haven't come across any host before that will refuse uploading .htaccess files. Some hosts ignore them, or fail to load certain commands in them, but they don't outright refuse to have the files uploaded.
Offline
Well I can see the cart online but not on my phone, I have no idea why.

if you post a link to a problem gallery and enable guest access to ttg-be, Ben will be better able to help you.

It isn't. In my experience, Yahoo hosting is simply one of the worst, and on a number of fronts.

I've thought about finding me another host. Do any of you have suggestions?

Ben, can you look at my gallery? I guess this software is more for developers than photographers like myself. I'm not sure how to set this up to sell my photos. I have a graduation to get up ASAP and I'm not sure if it's going to work. I need to sell prints and downloads. Isn't this software able to automatically send a digital download as soon as payment is made?
I also just looked and I'm not sure about this paypal API or what sandbox means.
Give me a few min, I'm uploading them now.

Not really. Everybody using it is a photographer.

do you have a business PayPal account?
You'll need to go to PayPal to get your API
http://ce4.theturninggate.net/docs/doku … redentials
one problem with your gallery is that you've not entered the cart url in the Output Settings > Shopping Cart Integration
The cart can't work without it.

Since you're not using Publisher, you'll need to prepare and upload the hi-resolution images for download yourself:

Ok, I found and put in my API settings for paypal but its for the LIVE part not the testing. I'm trying to figure out how to setup the test part and the TTG directions don't line up with what I see on paypal. I do have a business account through paypal, LOL I do know that much.
I sure do appreciate all the help in here. It means a lot.

looks like PayPal changed things up a bit. Try clicking on the "Classic APIs link"
https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/de … s/classic/
and then the "test your integration" link:
