Activating the plugin

Back to top

Now that the installation is complete, it's time to activate the plugin.

Drupal Enable Plugin

Go to the Modules page and scroll to the very bottom. Here, you see a section labelled E-Commerce.

Check the box to enable the Checkfront plugin you just installed and click Save Configuration.  

 

Drupal Configure Plugin

Click on the Configure link that appears to the right of the plugin.

 

Drupal Checkfront URL

On the next screen, look for a box titled Setup. Enter your URL in the field labelled Checkfront Host URL.

This is the URL by which you access your Checkfront admin area and was chosen by you when you first created your account. It is most likely [BusinessName].checkfront.com.

In our example, we use demo.checkfront.com.

Click Save configuration.

 

Drupal Configuration Saved

If everything goes according to plan, then you see a confirmation message at the top of the screen.  

 

Note

Pay close attention to your Checkfront Host URL. Depending on where you are located, your URL may not end with .com. It may, for instance, end with .co.uk.

Entering this incorrectly is a common mistake, so double-check the URL before entering it in the field, to ensure the link is correct!
