Paypal express checkout routing back to payment page.

Post by jmestep » Sun Jun 07, 2009 12:35 pm

We have a client that we did some custom shipping code for then Able came out with the muti page checkout if customer was already logged in. I found the flag to set to not route that way, but he says that when someone pays via the paypal express button in the minibasket, they get routed back to the multi page process where there are no shipping customizations like the one page checkout has. Is there a way of routing the customer back to the one page checkout instead? He really doesn't want to spend more money to customize the new pages, which I understand.
Thanks.

I am not clear, Paypal button form mini basket sends the customer to paypal website to complete payment and checkout, its an alternative checkout.

Here is what he says:
I activated PayPal as a payment gateway and now a link appears in the Right Nav that allows you to checkout with PayPal. If you use this link, you sign into your PayPal account and then return to my website on the alternate Checkout Page (that incorrectly displays shipping options and gift wrap options). Can you apply a patch to this flow to use the correct Checkout Page? (meaning the multi-step checkout)

(I haven't tried it myself)

I just tried it myself- I wasn't logged on in the site, put something in the basket, clicked Paypal express checkout button on right nav, went to Paypal and put in my password and approved, then got redirected back to
https://www.expressyourselfonline.biz/C ... ethod.aspx

This page doesn't have the custom shipping methods on it.
I might just put a redirect on that page to the one page checkout, if there is no other solution.
Thanks

I went ahead and did a quick fix- I added a redirect on Checkout/ShipMethod.aspx to route them to the one page checkout.
