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 block 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 block 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.
Congrats: You have successfully created a Bubble app based on your template. Now, you can proceed with the setups and dive into Bubble no-code development toolset.
Payments
Card payments in this template are powered by Stripe, using the default card checkout to provide a secure environment for users. 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 instruction below to configure.
2. The second step is to configure the API Connector plugin within your editor.
- Go to Plugins -> API Connector -> Stripe and hit to expand it, here:
The API section will expand, and you will be able to configure it with your own API🔑 keys as follows:
Note: Add Bearer keyword in front of the keys values. And remember to change to Live keys when you decide to go live with your app.
Stripe API has 2 action calls:
- Create a refund - used to create refunds to the Employer/Client.
- Stripe client data - used to get the details of a Stripe customer.
Tip: Genuine card information cannot be used in test mode. Instead, use test Stripe cards credentials.
- For the seller (on account creation):
Note: You need to set the redirection URIs in Stripe as 'https://bubble.io/poststripeauth' or 'https://d##.bubble.is/poststripeauth' for Dedicated environments in order for this to work."
