Remove "Payment Method" section from "Step 2 of 4 - Payment Method" page

Hi

I only accept Paypal on my shop but the Paypal logo and tagline "Checkout with PayPal. The safer, easier way to pay." seems to be confusing the the customers that are helping me to test the site before i go live.

How do i go about removing this section from "Step 2 of 4 - Payment Method" page?

and also the "Payment Method : PayPal" notification on "Step 3 of 4 - Order Confirmation" page?

Thanks
Iddy

You should not be removing that information.
You can change the wording if that's confusing people. I suggest you carefully consider PayPal's terms of service before making drastic changes to the way in which PayPal is presented to your customers.

ok thanks.

What file am i looking for to change the wording?

Iddy,
One way to find the correct .php files to edit is this:
https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=39
https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=38

Thanks.

I'm having a hard time finding stuff in the tutorials :blush:
I know most of what i'm looking for is there but my searches are coming up blank and even more so when I'm under pressure to complete things.... and I've bought the book and can't find that either. think i'm just having one of those weekends :frusty:

I've been searching the forum and have found that its possible to switch off the paypal button on the shopping cart.

when i do this it disappears from the Login page... would i be correct in assuming that its ok to also remove the text "Have a PayPal account? Want to pay quickly with a credit card? Use the PayPal button below to use the Express Checkout option." that appears on that page as well?

(this appears when a guest puts something into the cart then tries to checkout)

Thanks

Yes, you could change the text on the login screen. Use the same tutorials mentioned above to locate the text (perhaps search on "pay quickly").

ok i'm confused now... Why is there an option to not show the paypal button if Paypal still require that Paypal is offered at the start of the checkout/login process?

I've taken a look at the Paypal site and cant find anything about being obliged to show the paypal button at the beginning of checkout process... but it makes sense and I was speed reading/skimming the site so i could have missed it.

I also read through the thread http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=164584 and also the thread linked in it.

Look at the dates of those threads.
Simply stated: as of ZC v1.3.9h, you are allowed to turn the button off as per the provided switch in your ZC admin.

I'm having this issue as well, it's very confusing to my customers.

It appears with a box next to the only payment method offered on some computers, and appears with nothing next to it on other computers. Folks are trying to "check the box" but it's not really a checkbox. Might be a spacer? I can't duplicate it but I've had dozens of users confused by it. I'd like to remove the entire section from this page.

Some computers: (normal)

other computers: (looks like a checkbox)
