Quantity editable on hosted page created via API
Hello. I started integrating my application with Zoho Subscriptions and I really like it so far. I need some help with the following issue. I want the quantity for the subscription to be editable. If I use the basic hosted page url, I can correctly edit the quantity. But I don't use the basic url, I create a new one programmatically for the user, so they don't have to input their account info again, and with this generated hosted page, the quantity field is locked. Why? How can I get it to work?
