Re: Paypal Express Checkout - Shipping Address Issue
I haven't yet had trouble since our shop is not live yet, but it occurs to me something appears to odd:
I understand that Paypal (when I communicated with them about letting customers in Japan check out without a Paypal account) will not uphold any claims if customers are permitted to check out without having a Paypal account. That is Paypal's right, per country and depending on the circumstances as they see fit.
However, when they do validate a customer (with or without a Paypal account), my expectation is that they validate the customer's name and Zen Cart billing address against the registered credit card name and billing address for that customer in Paypal.
How does that billing address have anything to do with the shipping address in Zen Cart? Once the validation is done, and the flow returns to Zen Cart, is the shipping address not decided regardless of the payment authentication flow?
If not, that sounds to me like a flaw in the module. But then, I admit I do not know how the API is required to be set up to satisfy Paypal's verification procedures.
Zen Cart 1.5.6c modified to support Japanese language (postage module support work in progress). Upgraded incrementally each version from initial 1.5.5d.
