    Default COWOA and PayPal Express

    Hi! I'm using v1.3.9h with ZenFlavor's free template, which I have modified.

    I only accept PayPal, so I have been trying to make my store's checkout process as easy as possible. I posted about this months ago, and someone suggested I install COWOA. I finally had time to do that today, and it appears to have been successful.

    However, my checkout page now looks cluttered. I would appreciate feedback on how to streamline the checkout process. Ideally, I'd like for there to only be the PayPal button, but I understand that ZenCart requires that there be a log in feature. If I knew how to remove all the extra buttons without breaking my site, I'd do it.

    Here's my home page:

    Thanks for any help you can offer!

    Simple. Go to your Admin and in the Express Checkout settings turn off the EC Shortcut Button setting. Then you won't have conflicting checkout buttons on the shopping cart screen.

    Maybe I'm not getting it, but won't that disable the PayPal feature? I only accept payment that way, so I want the PayPal button to show -- it's the other buttons I want to hide.

    If you disable the EC Shortcut button then your customers will need to go through checkout the normal way (choosing PayPal when the Payment Choices are presented), and will not be confused by the PayPal button on the Shopping Cart page which is apparently causing you difficulty.

    If you want it all gone except the PayPal button, I suppose you could hack up tpl_checkout_payment_default.php located in includes/templates/your_template/templates. You'd probably also have to edit includes/languages/english/your_template/checkout_payment.php.

    Of course, if you do it wrong, you'll have a mess on your hands.
