Create Your Products

1) Create your products for sale. If your products are items to be rezzed (like furniture or buildings), remember to set the next-owner permissions while they are rezzed inworld.
2) Create the pictures to be used for your vendors and upload them to SL. (The vendors will call the image by the UUID, and there is no UUID if the image hasn't been uploaded to SL.)
3) Create your shipping package (box, bag, crate, whatever you want to be seen when your customers unpack everything.) You cannot use folders with CasperVend - the dropbox is only capable of sending packaged products.

Package Your Products

1) Each product (with its respective parts) goes in one shipping package.
2) Add any relevant notecards, landmarks, product pictures, etc. that you want the customers to have for that product into that shipping package at this time.
3) Make sure each product package has its own unique name.
4) Unpack your CasperVend shipping crate.
5) Rez a copy of the CasperTech DropBox (the box, not the sphere) and start putting your product packages and a copy of your store landmark in it.

Set Up Product Listings

1) Once everything is in, and the dropbox has finished sending data up to the website, click the DropBox and select "Admin" from the popup menu.
2) Let it take you to the CasperVend website where you can create your account and log in.
3) Click "Products" on the left column. (The page will appear empty, this is normal until you begin setting up products.)
4) Click the "List New Product" button
5) You will now be presented with the product setup screen for your individual product.
6) See the product options page for details on how to set up products.
7) To save space in your dropbox, for each product's vendor texture, simply right-click on the texture in your inworld inventory, select "copy UUID", and paste that in the UUID box within the product listing page.
8) Remember to click "save" at the bottom when you are done filling in product information.
9) Repeat for each product you want to set up at this time.

Rez Your Vendors

1) Choose a vendor style from the CasperVend folder and rez it out.
2) Grant debit permissions - the vendor will not function without them.
3) At this point, you will see one or more products magically appear on your inworld vendor.

Show Specific Product(s) On Specific Vendor(s)

If you want to have only certain products showing on a specific vendor, you will need to use profiles.

Vendor Configuration

Once you have your profiles set up, it's time to attach the appropriate profile to the appropriate vendor.

1) To get to the vendor's configuration page, click the main (usually the largest, or the most centered) panel on the vendor, and select "admin" from the popup menu.
2) That will take you to the specific configuration page for that vendor.
3) Use the "Change" link on the profile line, and use the pulldown to select the profile for that vendor.
4) Alternatively, if this is a static (single product) vendor, use the individual product pulldown at the bottom of the configuration options.

How do I....?

FAQ / Troubleshooting

Q. I'm setting up my vendors, but they're not booting up and I don't see the debit perm windows!
A1. Vendors don't finish the boot process because they're waiting for you to grant debit permissions. If you are using a v3 viewer, they can accumulate behind a tiny "chicklet toast" in the corner of your screen. Check the upper right and the lower right to see if they're hanging out there waiting for you to answer.
A2. All viewer3-style viewers actually store your popup notifications, unless you dismiss them. Over time, undismissed notifications build up - if you have too many, you may not be able to log in, OR you may not actually SEE any new notifications at all. You can see details of the problem AND the fix over on the Firestorm wiki.
