Paypal Gurus... question about shipping rates.
 

I have a site that sells actual goods that I sort of ignore... .but need to fix a few things on it. I threw up magento as a store cms but its kind of a mess and since there are only 70-ish products, I built a very nice, clean static site to use (because there is no easy way to upgrade my old version of magento to the latest and I hate the theme anyway)

What I want to do:

I want to create text links to use for each product that also calculate the shipping for teh shopping cart page.

To make the buttons work that I designed along with all the AJAX/Jquery stuff, i need to generate a link to use in the button code to add that product to the users cart.

That's pretty easy. I figured out you can click the email tab when you create a button and there is the actual text link to be used with any sort of graphics.

What I can't figure out:

How are shipping rates added to the shopping cart page. I mean I see the admin part to add the UPS/USPS account info to pull the lower rates etc. I see how to add weights/size etc to the product for shipping purposes. HOWEVER, I don't understand or see how shipping is tied in any way to that text link/button to actually buy the product or how shipping shows up on the cart page for the products the user has added.

My Question:

How do I generate a text link that has the shipping rates also added to the shopping cart page for each product?

Url.com/downloader to download magento updates through magento connect. You can find some nice themes via themeforest.net. they have some nice free ones around the net as well.

Sorry, can't help ya with your current issue. If you go back to magento, let me know. Either way, consider this a friendly bump for an answer.

Best of luck.

Actually, I made some time to dig through paypal again just now and see much of the admin area is redesigned and its pretty clear now how to add shipping preferences to products.

Thanks :)
