Can't get PP Express Checkout button to show in some cases
I’d like some help with a frustrating matter, and I’m counting on someone who can point me in the right direction. You know who you are.
I have modified my cart to avoid thrashing between the product_info page and the shopping_cart page, and so to avoid distracting the customer from his primary task, if you add something to the cart, you stay where you are so as to continue shopping.
A wonderful green bar appears to notify you that your item has been added to the cart as well as two new buttons appear on the product info page when the cart contains items
1) View Cart
2) Checkout.
If you click the “view cart” button FIRST, then off you go to view the cart, where the PPEC button is proudly displayed. And if you click the PPEC button (having never logged in) off you go to PayPal. Great!
BUT, what happens if after adding your product to the cart and now from that product_info page you choose to checkout, and click on the CHECKOUT button, not the “view cart” button?
You are directed to the login page. The login page sometimes exposed the PPEC button, and sometimes it doesn’t. In this particular case it doesn’t. Why?
THERE IS SOMETHING IN THE CART, and I WANT TO CHECKOUT… WITH PPEC!
It seems that the Boolean value of $ec_button_enabled is not set to true unless something else determines that it’s okay to display the PPEC button. For the life of me I have not been able to do that.
