Removing option for different shipping address from zc

Hi, Is it possible to remove the different shipping address option when a customer makes an order?

I have altered the payment module so that paypal shows address before they pay, and I want the customer to alter the shipping address here if they wish to do so.

I don't like having a different shipping address on the customer receipt as it shows on paypal, as I understand I am only protected by PP seller protection if the address shown on the PP transaction is the one I ship to.

If anyone could help on this, or advise what they do in similar circumstance it would be helpful, thank you.

I'm not sure if this is of any help, but if you use PayPal Express, rather than the older IPN module, your customers don't even need to enter an address, as this is retrieved from their PayPal settings.

Cheers

Re: Removing option for different shipping address from zc

Hey thanks for that.

At the moment though I'm literally only a few days online and want to test the water a little before upgrading to paypal business user. Keeping the costs to a bare minimum is important atm.

I think altering the maximum address value to 1 per customer seems to have done the trick.

Although now it seems they cannot edit the billing address if they make a mistake...

If your account can work with Standard, then it can work with Express too.

Oh maybe I've misunderstood then, this is copy pasted from paypal's site:

"Express Checkout is made to work with many leading shopping carts and payment gateways (see all) so it's easy to add to your existing checkout. Once you've opened your PayPal Business account, simply follow your cart provider's instructions to enable PayPal in your checkout."

I thought that meant there was a need to upgrade.

Thanks also for explaining about how they can change the address if they make an error.
