paypal-payment: how to set up ?
Hi,

I have the latest Links-SQL.
I want to set-up the payment-system by using PayPal, but somehow it is not working. What am I doing wrong here ?

----------------------------------------
My "Payment Setup" in admin is set like this:

Payments Enabled: "Yes"
Payment global option: "Required"

Link payment auto-validation: "All paid links are automatically validated."
Renewal Terms: " 50.00 Euro / 1 Year"


List Payment Methods: "PayPal"
----------------------------------------



When a User is Adding a Link, then this message appears:

You are required to make a payment to add a link to this category. Choose one of the payment methods listed below and click "Next" to make a payment.
The following renewal options are available after making the initial payment:
$50.00: 1 Year



Where can the user "choose a payment method" ? What does this message mean ? Should the User select something here ?


----------------------------------------


If the user then clicks on the button "Next", the following error-message appears:

You are required to make a payment to add a link to this category. Choose one of the payment methods listed below and click "Next" to make a payment.

Unknown Tag: 'payment_description'



----------------------------------------






Please help me ! Crazy

Sounds like you've only set up a "Renewal" payment. What you need to do is set up a "Single" payment for the same amount.

Re the error - check my my post here on how to fix it.

Hi Regan,

many thanks for your fast help !!! This one works now. Sly


another 2 questions:

1)
I have a german-language and an english-language website (Multi-Language-Plugin).
How do I set this up that my german-language website goes to the german-language website of PayPal ? ( https://www.paypal.com/at/ )
How do I set this up that my english-language website goes to the enhlish-language website of PayPal ?

My customers want to see the PayPal payment-website in their chosen language on my website.


2)
I can see the PayPal payment-website. Is it possible to include my header and my footer into this PayPal website ?



Pirate

TIA

Erich

sorry can't help with either of those - haven't used the multi-language plugin and don't use paypal for processing payments.

an email I received from paypal a little while ago did mention that you can customise it though if my memory serves me correctly - this would all be done on the paypal end though so log in there and have a look through their documentation.
