Do you want to check your WordPress integration?

Got it, thanks

#

Can you give me the merchant ID or recent request IDs? you can get them from your Stripe Dashboard.

fast raven Dec 20, 2021, 5:46 AM

#

Is that in settings? Sorry this is all new to me

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 5:48 AM

#

Settings -> account details and you will find a ID starting with acct_, that's your merchnt ID

I don't see any logs related to payments yet. So the payment request from your website was not yet sent to Stripe.

fast raven Dec 20, 2021, 5:53 AM

#

Sorry to ask such a basic question, but how do I do that?

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 5:54 AM

#

If I were you, I will start by looking at the payment related code in your application.

#

Ok thanks, is there a tutorial page I could follow? I've build wordpress sites for years, just not done e-commerce

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 5:56 AM

#

Sure, there are many doc in Stripe webpage, and I will recommend this one https://stripe.com/docs/payments/accept-a-payment to get started.

Accept a payment

Securely accept payments online.

Thanks Jack, can you tell me if there are alot of steps in in this process? As you can see, I'm a little confused by this process

#

And I'm not a coder

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 5:58 AM

#

There is a prebuilt checkout page that requires minimum integration effort.

fast raven Dec 20, 2021, 6:00 AM

#

Ok thanks, this is the WP Plugin I've installed as we're only dealing with Donations. 'WordPress Stripe Donation and Payment Plugin'

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 6:02 AM

#

I see. I'm afraid that I'm unable to assist on the troubleshooting on 3rd-party plugins

fast raven Dec 20, 2021, 6:02 AM

#

Fair enough, completely understand

#

You know what though? I know some php, css, etc, but not python or ruby and when it comes to using Terminal - I'm lost. Is it possible to hire a Stripe expert to help out? I feel like I'm close, just not quite there...

#

I tried adding a 'product' but its a 'donation' I need to setup, the form is fine, but the processing isn't

You can reach out to Stripe experts to help with your integration

#

Thank you, do I have to create a payment?

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 6:15 AM

#

I'm not following. Is this question about payment integration?

fast raven Dec 20, 2021, 6:17 AM

#

Yes, that's right, in the Stripe account it asks if I want to setup my first payment?

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 6:17 AM

#

can you send me a screenshoot?

fast raven Dec 20, 2021, 6:18 AM

#

Sure, here it is

#

The catch is, we want a set amount as a donation: $5 $10 $25, etc Do I have to enter each one of these as 'payments'?

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 6:24 AM

#

I see, you are creating a payment from the Dashboard directly.

#

Can I recommend you Stripe Payment Link https://stripe.com/en-sg/payments/payment-links

Stripe Payment Links: Create a link. Sell anywhere in under 5 minutes.

Use Payment Links to sell online without a website and without any code. Create a full payment page in just a few clicks and share the link with your customers.

fast raven Dec 20, 2021, 6:25 AM

#

Do I need to setup a webhook?

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 6:26 AM

#

You can simply create a link from Dashboard and use it to collect payments from your customers. no coding required.

fast raven Dec 20, 2021, 6:27 AM

#

If I set up a endpoint, what event do I point it too?

Screen_Shot_2021-12-20_at_5.27.09_pm.png

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 6:30 AM

#

I don't see a need to setup webhook yet. Can you tell me what do you want to achieve with webhook?

fast raven Dec 20, 2021, 6:30 AM

#

I don't know...

#

Actually I do, beciase of this screen

#

What is a webhook used for?

spring spade Dec 20, 2021, 6:44 AM

#

Once the webhook is setup, stripe would send events of interest to notify your server

#

You can learn more about webhook here https://stripe.com/docs/webhooks

Use incoming webhooks to get real-time updates

Listen for events on your Stripe account so your integration can automatically trigger reactions.
