    Hello.
    Im trying to activate the paypal express option on my site. I have the credentials all set up and I have the paypal expres option active and set to default in my checkout settings but when I go to check out on my website it tells me that I dont have an active payment method activated for my location or something like that. Any idea what might be causing this?
    Thank you!

    Sounds like Express Checkout is the only gateway you have active, but then you don’t have it enabled anywhere to actually see it.

    Look in your Express Checkout settings and make sure you have the EC button enabled for the cart page, product details pages, and/or the checkout page how you want.

    Ok so now i got the gateway to show on the checkout page, however there is also a purple PROCEED TO CHECKOUT button that now appears on my cart page. How do I get rid of this button from my cart page? I want people to use the standard checkout button provided by Woocommerce since I need them to fill out some info on the checkout page.
    Thank you!

    You may need to make some adjustments in your theme (which is recommended to do within a child theme.)

    The 2.3 release of WooCommerce includes some adjustments to how they’re handling that Proceed to Checkout button, so it’s causing issues with our logic that was working there before. We’re already working to resolve this in our 1.1.7 update, which will hopefully be released in the next couple of weeks.

    In the mean-time, you should be able to hide any buttons you don’t want with some simple CSS in your child theme. If you need help with that you could submit an order for premium support and we can do it for you.

    I think that meanwhile you can hide the “process to checkout button” by adding at the end of your style.css from your theme the following code.

    .woocommerce-checkout #payment {
        display: none;
    }

    Interesting treat.
    I have the opposite I activated the Expresscheckout buttons and they are not shown at the Product Site.

    Any help Angel?

    Thanks

    There is a dropdown button that tell you where you want to put the paypal express button in the paypal express settings tab in the woocommerce settings.

    You see something like
    at the top…
    Below the cart
    not displayed

    Nice tip, thanks bloup, but no help. This is only for the checkout site. I miss the button at the product site. To make it sure it is activated.
    It was there before the Woocommerce update and I deactivated it. Now I like to have it again and activated it, but no see at the product site.

    Thanks Josef

    I notice that the button comes only she I have chooses the item to the cart. But now between the volume and the cart button.
    How can I change the order or put the button below the cart button?

    Some css support is appreciated.

    Thanks Josef

    @hyperv, I’m not sure I’m following you entirely with what your issue is at this point. If you need some CSS support, though, you’ll need to submit an order for premium support and then we can help you with that directly.

    now I cant get rid of the proceed to checkout button even after i disabled the plugin…
    how is it still there?

    The Proceed to Checkout button is not placed there by our plugin. That comes as part of the WooCommerce system. That’s just the general checkout button that allows people to continue, choose a payment gateway, and pay. Not sure what else you would be expecting to see there..??

    If you go to my site, pipelist.com, and add any item to the cart and then click on the cart, youll see what im talking about.
    The purple proceed to checkout button was not there before activating your plugin and when I would deactivate your plugin the button would disappear. But i activate your plugin to mess around with it some more and when I couldnt figure out how to fix an issue i deactivated the plugin but this time the purple button stuck around… My current paypal plugin doesnt even have an option to activate that purple button on my cart page…

    Sounds to me like you must have some caching plugins or something in play..?? Do you have a caching or CDN system of some sort setup on the WordPress site or the server itself?

    Plugin Contributor angelleye

    (@angelleye)

    Also, what version of our plugin are you working with? Our old version would actually remove the WC checkout button and then add one back with different verbiage on it based on the gateways that were setup and the options that were set, but in our latest version we eliminated that and now we’re just replacing the text on the existing button without removing and re-adding.

    So it almost sounds like a combination of you using an old version of our plugin and a caching or CDN system in place. The caching/CDN is the only thing I can think of that would leave something stranded even when the plugin is no longer active.

    I have the latest version i believe. I just updated a few days ago. Version 1.1.6.2
    I dont think i have a cache plugin activated. They all say deactivated.
    However when I checked on another device, the button showed up on that device also.
