Disable or remove the paypal express payment module under admin>modules>payment

[taitaiji]

oops... that would disable it alltogether! I am looking for a way to allow the express checkout only after login or creating an account.

But thanks for the fast reply!

Solved: whoever wants to do as I did, getting rid of the guest checking out option with paypal express without loosing the payment option in later checkout do the following:

 

delete from >catalog >shopping_cart.php

 

<?php
$initialize_checkout_methods = $payment_modules->checkout_initialization_method();
if (!empty($initialize_checkout_methods)) {
?>
 <p align="right" style="clear: both; padding: 15px 50px 0 0;"><?php echo TEXT_ALTERNATIVE_CHECKOUT_METHODS; ?></p>
<?php
  reset($initialize_checkout_methods);
  while (list(, $value) = each($initialize_checkout_methods)) {
?>
 <p align="right"><?php echo $value; ?></p>
<?php
  }
}
?>

Thank you. This was exactly what I was looking to do.

Yes and me. Paypal checkout has caused me no end of grief for this reason.

Good ridance to the paypal instant checkout button, at last! Probably cost me hundreds of pounds in lost sales.
