Drop WorldPay, add PayPal

[iblink]

Hi

Client wants to switch to PayPal from WorldPay.

running version 1.0.9

Have unchecked WorldPay in Gateways section of admin
Have added gateway PayPal with paypal.php as module name and client's email address as account name

Have also unselected all credit cards as payment methods

But now pre-gateway page has empty methods (of course) and no way to proceed ('you must select a payment method')

What have I done wrong / do I still need to do?

Many thanks

Hi iblink,

PayPal is actually listed as a Payment Method, not a gateway ("Settings > Payment > Methods"). It does not require a record in the payment gateway table. A paypal.php file should already have been present in the squirrelcart/payment_gateways folder.

To enable PayPal, you need to click on it in the Payment Methods table, check enabled, and add your PayPal email address.

Please keep in mind that PayPal recently added a payment gateway feature to their services, in addition to their traditional payment method. We only support the traditional payment method, as seen in a zillion eBay auctions.

Thanks,
Jamie
