This guide is the beginning of the documentation with the built-in Notes for the database. Will help you gain a better understanding of how the template and Bubble works.
Starting with the Template
Once you have bought or added a template to your account, you will see a dropdown in the New Application popup that lets you pick a template as the basis for the new application.
Note: this can only be done when you create a new app.
After you've selected a template you bought, complete the other fields with necessary data (i.e: Name of the new app, What kind of application you are building, etc) and press Create a new app.
Tip: A template isn't a theme for your app, but a pre-built set of elements and workflows. You can modify the template as you would modify another app.
Wait for Bubble to load the application with all the data
After the application has loaded, you'll see the bubble assistant on the left side for New Application. You can close it or follow the assistant steps to adjust different settings.
Now you're ready to go and dive into the Bubble no-code development toolset.
Congrats: You have successfully created a Bubble app based on your template. Now, you can proceed with the setups.
Payments
This template uses Stripe for payments. To set up your Stripe account, go to https://stripe.com, and create an account.
Note: You will be allowed to access your dashboard once you have successfully verified your email address and activated your account.
This template is using the Bubble's Stripe plugin for payments.
1. The first step is to configure the Stripe dashboard and the Stripe plugin within your editor. Please follow the Stripe payments instructions below to configure.
2. The second step is to configure the API Connector plugin within your editor.
Go to Plugins -> API Connector -> Stripe custom and hit to expand it, here:
Stripe custom API The API will expand, and you will be able to configure it with your own API 🔑 keys, here:
Note: Add the Bearer keyword in front of the key values. And remember to change to Live keys when you decide to go live with your app.
Stripe custom has 1 action call:
- Create a refund - used to create a refund for a charge that has previously been created but not yet refunded. Funds will be refunded to the credit or debit card that was originally charged.
This process is found on the
bookingsandinstructor_profilepages for events when a user cancels a booking request or when the user (instructor type) declines the booking request.
Note: Listings created by an instructor that hasn't connected to a Stripe account, won't be available for booking.
This is due to the parameter
PaymentsAvailable of the listing being set to no.
Once the instructor connects a Stripe account all his listings will have PaymentsAvailable set to yes.Tip: Genuine card information cannot be used in test mode. Instead, use test Stripe card credentials.
