The base plugin on the repo is actually a great place to see how the plugin works, though, as (More) Stripe only adds another checkbox to the Stripe feed setup page. Pretty simple :-) </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/the-massive-disruptive-potential-of-stripe-connect#post-155904 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 09:45:54 +0000 Chris Hajer 155904@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Please contact Naomi directly or use her support forum for issues with the Stripe add-on, as it is not a Gravity Forms plugin. Naomi stops in here frequently, but she prefers to handle her own support. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/the-massive-disruptive-potential-of-stripe-connect#post-155899 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 09:42:34 +0000 etinteractive 155899@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Was looking at the Stripe addon, however there is no demo, screenshots, anything that I can find for Stripe Pro ($49) addon from Naomi. I can see the free plugin on the WP page, but being able to see it in action, with advanced options, etc, </p> <p>Also, Can we post forum threads here about this add on? While email support is nice, not being able to search what other customers issues are and maybe finding users with the same issue is a bit of a red flag to me (just my opinion).</p> <p>Any one have additional info or urls where I can find more about the Stripe Pro addon I would appreciate it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/the-massive-disruptive-potential-of-stripe-connect#post-146530 Wed, 13 Feb 2013 08:23:38 +0000 GZA 146530@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>@Carl, I think the opposite is true, i.e. I am actually guilty of <em>overestimating</em> what Gravity can do! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/the-massive-disruptive-potential-of-stripe-connect#post-146058 Mon, 11 Feb 2013 20:59:07 +0000 donnacha 146058@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>@Carl</p> <p>Good point with regard to logical extensions, and Surveys sounds very interesting. There would probably also be a lot of potential around creating courses within GF.</p> <p>My "mysterious ways" comment was not meant as a criticism, just an observation that you guys don't always target the most obvious things and, of course, that has worked out well for you - who would have guessed that there was so much potential in forms?</p> <p>Good point, too, about wanting to encourage 3rd party developers and, therefore, avoiding stepping on their toes. I am sure that, if Stripe Connect turns out to be as important as I think it will, you will find a way to work with Naomi.</p> <p>In my own way, I was encouraging people to embrace what Naomi is doing rather than sniping at her because her add-on is not "official". As you know, there are things that I would dearly wish you guys would create but if, for instance, a third party developer were to release a decent, well-designed booking add-on tomorrow, I would be beyond thrilled. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/the-massive-disruptive-potential-of-stripe-connect#post-144809 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:24:39 +0000 Carl Hancock 144809@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>There's nothing mysterious about the Quiz Add-On. Polls, Quizes and (soon) Surveys are logical extensions of forms. They fit perfectly with how people use Gravity Forms.</p> <p>As for Stripe, if we make an official Add-On for it that will completely render what Naomi has done moot. We don't operate that way. If a 3rd party add-on is filling a need we don't want to alienate 3rd party developers by stepping on their toes and smacking them aside. We WANT 3rd party developer to develop Add-Ons for Gravity Forms.</p> <p>Does that mean we won't create an official Add-On when a 3rd party one exists? No. But we'll be more inclined to see how we could work with the 3rd party Add-On and possibly awhile it if it makes sense.</p> <p>As for Gravity Forms and ecommerce, there's no reason why it can't be used for that purpose. Is it a shopping cart? No. But it's great for payment integrates order forms.</p> <p>You underestimate what it can do and how it can be customized if you wouldn't use it for more complex implementations and ecommerce. That's how a large number of users are using it on a daily basis. It's extremely customizable and flexible. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/the-massive-disruptive-potential-of-stripe-connect#post-144609 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 05:55:29 +0000 GZA 144609@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>@donnacha, well said, as always. This is probably one of the most interesting and important posts on this forum and already I can see some opportunities going forward but Stripe is currently only available to North Americans.</p> <p>I like your comments about Gravity moving in mysterious ways, are you making a cheeky little dig about their Quiz add-on? </p> <p>We only use Gravity for simple forms and would never contemplate using it for more complex stuff such as ecommerce. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/the-massive-disruptive-potential-of-stripe-connect#post-112149 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 22:24:24 +0000 donnacha 112149@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Is anyone else interested in Stripe Connect integration?</p> <p>It means being able to create a marketplace (for transactions of ANY kind - goods, services, bookings etc) where the sellers use THEIR OWN Stripe accounts to accept payments via YOUR website, zero legal or financial liability to you, no transactional headaches to deal with, but you get to skim off 1 or 2 or 3% as an "application fee" ... and you KEEP your application fee regardless of whether the transaction is later disputed for any reason.</p> <p>This is a huge opportunity, a dream come true for WordPress developers with good ideas but no team of accountants and lawyers behind them to deal with all that crap. Instead of bitching about an independent developer not being on-call 24/7 to deal with trivial support issues, you should all be offering Naomi your kidneys and first-born children in exchange for a feature that will take your business to an entirely new level.</p> <p>Also, and no offense intended to anyone, but those of you expecting the Gravity Forms team to swoop into action and save the day with an official add-on, well, I think you have very poor powers of observation: those guys move in mysterious ways, what they find interesting to work on is not necessarily aligned with the needs of their users and you certainly shouldn't be dissing a third-party Stripe plugin that actually exists - and a developer who understands the importance of Stripe - in favor of "official" integration that may or may not ever arrive. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/the-massive-disruptive-potential-of-stripe-connect#post-111728 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 13:18:46 +0000 Naomi 111728@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi wordpressuser, the current Stripe Add-On is fully supported -- even on Christmas and New Year's Eve :-)</p> <p>Contact me if you have questions: <a href="https://gravityplus.pro/" rel="nofollow">https://gravityplus.pro/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/the-massive-disruptive-potential-of-stripe-connect#post-111549 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 07:02:31 +0000 wordpressuser 111549@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>+1 for an official (and supported) Dev GF Stripe plugin! </p>
