Greetings. We are a non-profit youth football & cheer program and we use Quickbase as our members database. Can we create a regisration form using Quickbase and include a paypal link for payment? Is there an example anywhere of this? Thanks
There's no reason why you could not do this but it is not totally straightforward. You basically want a form that does two things - submit to QuickBase and make a payment. QuickBase has a nice help entry about how to create a form that sends data to QuickBase. And I am sure that paypal will give you a link to make a payment.
The problem comes up when you are trying to link the two -- only submit data to QuickBase after the payment has been made -- and you probably DO want to do this. To do that, you need the form to submit to a page where there is some real programming, and probably in a server side language like php, coldfusion or ASP.NET.
There are a couple QuickBase partners that specialize in QuickBase support for non-profits, including Cullen Coates, and my organization, Data Collaborative.
