hi

i had installed this payment module by dynamoeffects on my website, but then thought that i needed to install the official module instead, so i did but now have a few problems and no one has responded on the forum for the official paypal module since may? even though paypal have said that it is the only module that they provide tech support for?

my two problems are:

1. customers can checkout without entering any credit card details, meaning they can checkout for free, because the store owner then gets an email suggesting they have paid, so would proceed to send off what they ordered, so BIG problem

2. when paypal express checkout is selected, either by clicking the button or selecting it as the payment method, it says register_globals is disabled, but in my catalog/php.ini file, register_globals is on?

but have had no reply so far so wondered if any one had any suggestions as to who i could get help from? when card details are entered, there is no record in paypal, so paypal doesnt seem to know anything about the payment module?



i like the official paypal module because the customer doesnt have to enter any card details until the confirmation page, so they know what they are ordering, etc.

please help as im very stuck and confused

[cclayton]

Does anyone know how long the session stays open using dynamo checkout? I appear to have a lot of customers that get to the one page basket and then leave it a while then attempt payment and no order data is transferred due to session timeout. I cant work out how long the session lasts and where I can change this to see if this makes a difference.

Thanks!!

Hi everyone. I hope you can help me, or give me some hints so I can solve the problem myself.


1.- it seems like the IPN is not working. When I change something on paypal (like refund from paypal.com) the order status doesn't change. it works if I do everything from my osc admin.

2.- When I place an order (the checkout process is completed successfully), the order is saved and is marked as "Completed" even when paypal shows the transaction as "under review"
I've been trying to solve this on \includes\modules\payment\paypal_wpp.php around line 1517, playing with the status, but haven't found a way to pass the right status.

//ORIGINAL CODE
if (strtoupper($this->transaction_log['payment_status']) == 'PENDING') {
            if (MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_DP_PENDING_ORDER_STATUS_ID > 0) {
              $order->info['order_status'] = MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_DP_PENDING_ORDER_STATUS_ID;
            }
          } elseif (strtoupper($this->transaction_log['payment_status']) == 'COMPLETED') {
            if (MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_DP_COMPLETED_ORDER_STATUS_ID > 0) {
              $order->info['order_status'] = MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_DP_COMPLETED_ORDER_STATUS_ID;
            }
          }

3.- When the user is using express checkout he can change his shipping address, so, is there a way to pull the billing AND shipping address from paypal instead of only the shipping address?

Thanks

I still have not had luck locating the code.

I'm no expert, but I think you can check the

/checkout_payment.php
/checkout_shipping.php
/login.php

OR, if you have a setup like me, where I'm encapsulating all my checkout pages on the template, you will have to check the files:

/templates/content/checkout_payment.tpl.php
and so on... or something like
/templates/mytemplate/content/checkout_payment.tpl.php
and so on...

I hope this helps

This is true. I last mentioned it in post 4198 of 2 July. I still haven't had brain cycles to spend on it. It is still on my list of things to do, (It's also listed as an issue at Github.)

            }
          }

I don't know what an "under review" payment looks like, possibly because I use "Authorization and Capture" in my shop. However, I also use the osC PayPal IPN payment module and uncleared checks go into my osC "Pending" order status, which is where all unreviewed orders go. I manually move those to a new status that I created called "Uncleared", and ship them once the customer's echeck clears. This also works for payments from countries, such as Germany, where the customer must send funds to PayPal from their bank after making a purchase.

PayPal made a number of changes to Express Checkout after this module was developed. Some of them will allow us to streamline the Express Checkout process further, but will require additional development. Again, some of this is on my "to do" list, but I believe that PayPal only returns one address in Express Checkout. However, I'll have to look at the API and the code to verify that.

Hi,

I bought a template from template monster and I am trying to install this module, but I just cant seem to find the code mentioned in:

Step #6 - Modify checkout_shipping.php of the installation

Im using version v2.2 RC2a

Why is my coding so different from that in the installation ?

Thanks

It shouldn't be different, unless the template modifies the checkout flow. Compare checkout_shipping.php from the RC2a distribution and compare it to the one supplied with your template.

Hi

Is it possible (I imagine so - just not sure how to do it safely) to turn off the 3DS feature temporarily if using the Add Charge feature in admin?

Its a chore to go to modules > payment > paypal_wpp to disable 3DS for a few moments whilst taking a card payment over the phone to then go back and enable it again afterwards... would be much neater if we could do this with php when the button is clicked for instance.

Many thanks

Hi All

I am trying to upgrade from version 1.0.7a to the latest version (so I can upgrade to Dynamo Effects one page checkout) on my test server, but am having problems getting it to work

I am using the Github version because of Cardinal and the comment in post 4202

When a transaction goes via paypal I get the following errors on returning from paypal

Also

When a CC transaction goes through and Cardinal is not active it is processed Ok

but when Cardinal is active the user gets the errors

Error Processing Lookup Request Message (Error 1002)
Merchant Profile is not configured with a Transaction Password (Error 2021

(I have configured the Transaction password in Cardinal)

Help

Thanks in Advance

I have installed the original direct paypment implementation by paypal.

What are the steps to overwrite this installation?

Anything different?

Also does this fix the paypal_express problem of losing the customer information and tax when it returns from paypal.

thanks

Just installed this and I get an error when I click any of the Express checkout buttons as follows:-

It appears that you are missing modifications within /includes/classes/payment.php. Please reference the installation guide for assistance.

I have verified the required mods are in place, I can see the check that is causing the error in includes/paypal_wpp/paypal_wpp_include.php as follows:-

    case 'express_checkout':
      require_once(DIR_WS_CLASSES . 'payment.php');

      if (tep_session_is_registered('paypal_error')) tep_session_unregister('paypal_error');

      if (isset($_GET['clearSess'])) {
        tep_session_unregister('paypal_ec_temp');
    		tep_session_unregister('paypal_ec_token');
    		tep_session_unregister('paypal_ec_payer_id');
    		tep_session_unregister('paypal_ec_payer_info');
      }
      
      if ($ec_enabled) {
      
        $payment_modules = new payment('paypal_wpp');
        
        if (!method_exists($payment_modules, 'ec_step1') || !method_exists($payment_modules, 'ec_step2')) {
          die(TEXT_PAYPALWPP_ERROR_PAYMENT_CLASS);
        }
        
        if(!tep_session_is_registered('paypal_ec_token')) {
          $payment_modules->ec_step1($_GET['return_to']);
        } else {
          $payment_modules->ec_step2();
        }
      }
      break;

and the code of

    //---PayPal WPP Modification START ---//
    function ec_step1() {
      if (is_array($this->modules)) {
        if (is_object($GLOBALS[$this->selected_module]) && ($GLOBALS[$this->selected_module]->enabled) ) {
          return $GLOBALS[$this->selected_module]->ec_step1();
        }
      }
    }

    function ec_step2() {
      if (is_array($this->modules)) {
        if (is_object($GLOBALS[$this->selected_module]) && ($GLOBALS[$this->selected_module]->enabled) ) {
          return $GLOBALS[$this->selected_module]->ec_step2();
        }
      }
    }
    //---PayPal WPP Modification END---//  

is in place so what gives ?

[Dangermouse]

For anybody that wants to disable the 3DS (Cardinal) pages when doing an add charge from the admin side as I did all you need to do is the following:-

Open Catalog > includes > modules > payment > paypal_wpp.php

search for:-

    function cardinal_centinel_enabled($cc_type = '') {
      if (MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_DP_CC_ENABLE != 'Yes') return false;

and replace with:-

    function cardinal_centinel_enabled($cc_type = '') {
      if ($this->is_admin) return false;
      if (MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_DP_CC_ENABLE != 'Yes') return false;

Then open catalog > admin > includes > paypal_wpp > paypal_wpp_include.php

Search for:-

          if (MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_DP_CC_ENABLE == 'Yes') {
             echo 'alert("This feature is unavailable with the Cardinal Commerce 3D Secure feature enabled.");';
             echo 'return false;';
          }

and replace with:-

          if (MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_DP_CC_ENABLE == 'Yes') {
             // echo 'alert("This feature is unavailable with the Cardinal Commerce 3D Secure feature enabled.");';
             // echo 'return false;';
          }

Hope this helps someone else.

my error of "missing modifications etc" was caused by something to do with the certificate I believe, I removed and recreated certificate and all ok now

Now I have other issues though

I get to the checkout page and it shows the fields for Direct Payment via Paypal, I enter in card details and click Continue and the page just refreshes on same page ? I have one page checkout facility on our site would it be anything to do with this ?

Also if i click Express checkout and go to paypal site, select option to say "dont have a paypal account" and enter in card details manually on paypal site, and then checkout and comes back to my site to the same checkout page with nothing changed

I'm encountering a problem that was previously discussed: the "Unfortunately the country of the address you selected is not currently one that we offer service to. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us." error when using Paypal Express.

I've installed the latest commit of the Paypal WPP module from github, which appears to be v1.1.2 according to paypal_wpp.php. Everything seems to be configured properly. The site has a valid SSL certificate & the IPN URL is set to https://www.mysite.com/buy/checkout_process.php.

I've examined the response array returned from wpp_execute_transaction around line 799 and it is only returning the customer name, no shipping address information is being returned at all, which is subsequently causing the error.

Any thoughts what may be causing this problem?

Hi,

Sorry if this has been answered before, but is the code in this github update OK to install? I'm hoping to get my site ready
for PHP 5.3 in case my host requires it, but I'm not of the status of this update since the comment says that it's not
complete.

Thanks

I've installed the commit even more recent than the one you linked to and it's worked well, 'cept I'm encountering a problem with Paypal Express Checkout payments (see posting before yours). I've been actively combing through the code to ensure the module itself is working; assuming the problem is with my configuration and not the module itself.

[rcbro]

Hey Guys, I have had this module installed for many months with great success. No all the sudden the checkout system does not work. When a customer attempts to complete the checkout via paypal express or the cart itself, when they go to submit the information it immediately redirects them to the cart contents never finishing payment.

I have talked with paypal and they show no records of the api credentials ever being sent. So its something with my site, but nothings been changed so I'm stumped.

Any ideas?

[gotkube]

Utterly lost with this module. Paypal Express Checkout simply refuses to work. Finally hacked my way around enough to 'resolve' the "Unfortunately the country of the address you selected is not currently one that we offer service to. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us." error (by forcing $payer_info['PayerCountry'] into both ship_country & bill_country if they do not exist, which they never do).
So supposedly the transaction goes through, but all I'm left with is a screen that reads "You're currently checking out with PayPal Express Checkout! Click Here to choose another payment method." Nothing more, nothing is debited from my Paypal account, the item is still in the shopping cart, literally /nothing/ is happening when using Paypal Express Checkout with this module.

Either something is really broken, or I'm totally missing something here.
Thoughts? Anyone?
