Re: Test PayPal
If you need to test the complete path, the only real way I know is too either borrow a friends account or use a personal PP account and check out. Might want to set a test product with no weight so your fees don't start adding up.Bruce Golub

Re: Test PayPal
I find it odd there is no sandbox method. I guess I need to go your route.Chris Dye

Re: Test PayPal
Yea, that would be cool, there is a test mode, but its (as far as I know) not 'gatable'.
What problems are they having? Is there a pattern of browser or OS? Region?Bruce Golub

Re: Test PayPal
I had an if/else statement to show or hide certain payment options based upon international or different shipping and billing addresses. When customers selected PayPal it would show all of the payment options and not just PayPal so it confused them.
I have a completely different international issue where the address isn't working correctly. it wants something in the other/international field but the fields are not editable.Last edited by K Series Parts; 03-29-15, 12:20 PM.Chris Dye

Re: Test PayPal
I have a couple of development stores so I will try it there. I have tried to use the sandbox account before on other platforms and it never worked.Chris Dye

Re: Test PayPal
I will make sure it has ssl setup. I tested it on a completely different platform maybe that is why it didn't work...Chris Dye

Re: Test PayPal
can anyone tell me the variable that is used on that payment/shipping page so that I could write an if/else if they have gotten to the page through the Paypal express checkout.Chris Dye

Re: Test PayPal
I figured out the issue with a little help from a customer. it turns out that PayPal works exactly how it should but the PayPal credit doesn't. If the customer selects that then it gives them all of the payment options on the credit card drop down, which is clearly confusing. if anyone knows how to know if they are using PayPal credit on the payment/shipping screen that would be great, that way I could hide everything but PayPal with an if/else.Chris Dye

Re: Test PayPal
IIRC PayPal refunds fees if a charge is refunded within a short window of time. After that time, you pay.Gordon Currie
