Redirect to paypal when placing order

    Hi,

    Some questions about this plugin.

    How can I remove the buttons from the checkout page?

    Because I would like it to be only a redirect(external) when the customer clicks the woocommerce order button, without any extra paypal buttons. Just like on PayPal Standard.

    Are credit card payments possible externally or will they always need to be processed on the site’s checkout page?

    Are there any php snippets to fix this? Will any of this be possible in the future?

    Best regards

    Hi @editpostok,

    The smart buttons in the checkout start the Javascript workflow either within the PayPal popup window or the iframe. A full-site redirect to PayPal is currently not an option with PayPal Payments.

    You can disable smart buttons on the checkout by removing the checkbox for “Enable on Checkout” under “Checkout”, but it will disable the entire PayPal gateway including other funding sources:
    https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-paypal-payments/#section-9

    You could still place the express buttons on the single product page or the cart to have users checkout through PayPal and confirm their payment in your checkout with a regular place order button.
    But the payment will always take place either in the popup window, in an iframe within your checkout, or through the hosted field integration with the PayPal Card Processing.

    We are aware that the PayPal Checkout plugin provided a filter to disable the smart buttons and are investigating if we could add a similar feature. There are no short-term plans for this, but I wouldn’t rule it out since it is a popular request.
    If you prefer a checkout redirect over the latest PayPal features, then sticking with the old PayPal Standard integration would be the best choice for now though.

    Kind regards,
    Niklas

    Hello Niklas, thank you for your response.

    I will wait for the filter and stick to PayPal standard for now. (the design of the checkout page requires the order to be placed via the official WooCommerce order button)

    Best regards
