Would love to recommend this to my client... was wondering if you can integrate it with 1shopping cart?
We don't have a 1shoppingcart Add-On and aren't entirely sure what 1shoppingcart integration would involve. How would you like to use Gravity Forms with 1shoppingcart? What would you want it to do?
I'm actually interested in this as well.
1shoppingcart.com has an email marketing/list management solution in addition to the shopping cart aspect so the integration would be something similar to the mailchimp add-on for what I'm interested in.
is this still being considered?
As explained above, we aren't familiar with 1shoppingcart and have never used it. It isn't entirely clear what the integration would do. If some users can explain how they would like to use it then it's an Add-On we could consider creating. But as we aren't familiar with 1shoppingcart and what type of integration would be desired there isn't anything for us to create.
I, too, would be interested in a 1SC add-on that would allow me to automatically populate a mailing list in 1SC with form data from GravityForms. That is the biggest need that my clients have at this point.
Thanks!

Yep, I've had several clients using this as their cart and use their optin/autoresponder.
I like 1ShoppingCart's ease of integrating with PayPal. It's really a shame -- 1ShoppingCart/PayPal is a nice round peg but Gravity Forms' "submit" is a square hole. As the others have said, I would urge Gravity to take another look at this opportunity.
I am looking for the same solution for a client.
If Gravity Forms wants to work on the integration with 1ShoppingCart, I'd be happy to be a test case. What I know from doing API integration with MS Expression Web is that you would set up a Custom Form Handler pointing to :http://www.mcssl.com/app/contactsave.asp; Type = Post. The arguments passed are Merchant ID, Auto-Responder to use, Confirmation URL, Contact fields, etc. If someone wants to contact me, I can provide all the API details and access to our site if necessary to get it working. It should be no harder than talking to Constant Contact or Mail Chimp. Let me know! Getting this to work is the missing piece in launching out new site so I'd be grateful.
vi,
can we partner on this? I can't write the code but willing to pay for the integration perhaps we can share the expense.
Hi befound,
We need someone at Gravity or a Gravity guru to help out on this to figure out how to write the form redirect. I think it's really straight-forward and hope someone can have a look. The normal HTML from a simple contact form in 1Shopping car looks like this. Hope it helps!
<form name="form1" method="post" action="https://www.mcssl.com/app/contactsave.asp">
<input name="merchantid" type="hidden" id="merchantid" value="XXXXX"> /* XXXXX is unique merchant ID */
<input name="ARThankyouURL" type="hidden" id="ARThankyouURL" value="www.frontpagecart.com/app/thankyou.asp?ID=XXXXX">
<input name="copyarresponse" type="hidden" id="copyarresponse" value="1">
<input name="defaultar" type="hidden" id="defaultar" value="0">
<input name="allowmulti" type="hidden" id="allowmulti" value="0">
<input name="visiblefields" type="hidden" id="visiblefields" value="Name,Email1,Country">
<input name="requiredfields" type="hidden" id="requiredfields" value="Name,Email1,Country">
<table>
<tr>
<td>Name</td>
<td><input name="Name" type="text" size="40"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Email</td>
<td><input name="Email1" type="text" size="40"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Country</td>
<td><input name="Country" type="text" size="40"></td>
</tr>
<tr align="center">
<td colspan="2">
<input type="Submit" name="cmdSubmit" value="Submit">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
vi, can you contact me directly? seo@be-found.net

I'm a new user of Gravity Forms and love the simplicity of creating forms as well as its versatility. I also use 1shoppingcart for my database/ezine management and really could use an integration between the two. I'm a little surprised there's not one already available given the popularity of 1shoppingcart.com . I have 2-3 customized forms (see urls below) on my web site now that do integrate with 1shoppingcart . My web designer was able to make the integration and I don't believe it was all that difficult. I supplied him with the form html created by 1shoppingcart and he did the rest.
Still, I'd like to move away from the customized forms to Gravity Forms so I can make changes as the need arise without needing to go back to my web guy. So, PL..E..A..S..E create a integration plugin for 1shoppingcart.
URLs to current non GF forms:

Well... I would like to jump on this bad wagon. Have been using Gravity Forms for almost a year now. I have also been using 1ShoppingCart as well on lots of websites. I NOW have an excuse to use the 2 together...
Mostly due to the fact I want to be able to charge a fee on a Gravity Form for a professional post listing and need it to be charged through PayPal. But because my IPN and Return URLs in PayPal already point to 1ShoppingCart I cannot use the PayPal Add-on for Gravity Forms.
So I am not sure of my solution... other than to have the person fill out the form, click submit, have them land on a page with either a PayPal button or a 1SC product. If I choose a 1SC product then they are going to be forced to fill out the Shopping Cart form now as well. This will make people not so happy!
Any suggestions? Should I just use the PayPal button built from PayPal on the landing page after they finish the form entry??
Has any progress been made on integration with 1ShoppingCart.com? i too would like to be able to use Gravity Forms to add subscribers to my 1SC autoresponders.
Has anyone made any progress?
Hi pdguyon, I don't know of anyone that has made any inroads with this as of yet. There has been some interest, and if there was some coordination, I am sure some developer could be sourced to make this happen as Gravity Forms is very flexible, and easy to create add-ons for.
It's now mid-October 2012. Has anyone made any progress on integrating 1ShoppingCart with GravityForms?
I have a client who wants potential clients to fill out and submit a self-assessment form. That part's easy. She also wants them to be added to a specific autoresponder list in 1ShoppingCart automatically when they submit their results. That part's not so easy, at least for me.
Any ideas?
It will be difficult for us to help with this as we do not have a paid 1SC account.
Does 1ShoppingCart have an API or can it accept a URL submission with query string parameters? If so, you can use the gform_after_submission hook to send the collected data to their service.
http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_after_submission
It would be no different than any other 3rd party service integration at that point.
Figured it out. Whatever else is going on the the form, set the Confirmation to Redirect.
The URL path is https://www.mcssl.com/app/contactsave.asp .
Check the Pass Field Data Via Query String, and in the entry field put:
merchantid=xxxxxx&
ARThankyouURL=yyyyyyyyyy&
copyarrresponse=1&
defaultar=zzzzzz&
allowmulti=0&
name={Name:1}&
email1={Email:2}
where
xxxxxx is your 1SC merchant ID
yyyyyyyyyy is the thank you URL for that autoresponder (either the 1SC generated one or a custom one on your website)
zzzzzz is the ID for that specific autoresponder
In my form, the name field happens to be field 1, and the email field happens to be field 2. I used the simple format for the name field (because I don't know how to concatenate the field values in PHP for the single field entry 1SC needs). And 1SC calls the email field email1.
I *AM* smarter than software, gorram it!
Thank you for posting your solution. I had a feeling someone could make it work with gform_after_submission.
