Can you show your template/code being used to redirect to PayPal. Is this site online where we can actually see the problem in action?
Hi Robert, Sorry for the delay in reply. I ended up having to use an alternative solution as I only had a few hours to complete the whole project. Although I am still experiencing this problem on a different site. Any assistance would be grately appreciated
This is standard code that I've used on shops in the past, and it's worked successfully so I don't understand why it's not now?
Hi Jade
You need to be a bit more specific with errors as you haven’t described what’s happening at all.
Did it work when you tested the code on a dev / staging server?
Hi Jonathan,
No it didn't work in the test environment.
Basically what is happening is that the user logs into an account and the it is taken off to the screen where it is supposed to be redirected to Paypal. However, instead of redirecting to paypal, it is stuck onthat page and is not redirecting. I've followed the steps to make the payment gateway, except it's not working? I don't know if I've set something up worng, but I've followed the same procedure as always so it should work?
Thank you for your help, it's much appreciated
Hi
Ideally you'd need to share the page template you are using for checkout and for the return page. The template you've shared doesn't have any checkout functions in it. I think your code is calling the password-less registration form. I haven't used this method myself so can't comment on that setup.
I would have thought though that even without a registration form this is the step before checking out. Paypal will need user details in order to make a payment.
Just to check, you've got exactly the same functionality working on another Shop site using Paypal Express?
Other things to check:
– You're using Paypal Express
– You've generated a new API in Sandbox in Paypal
– You're using the checkout function on your checkout page
– You're using
perch_shop_complete_payment('paypal-express');
on the landing page.Jon
Thanks Jonathan, I was missing the
perch_shop_complete_payment('paypal-express');
