PayPal RESTful API Payment Module

Bubbadood:

Sorry for the obvious question, once this is up and running I assume it's recommended to disable PayPal Payments Pro and PayPal Express Checkout ?

To be very specific, the recommended operation will be to retire the old modules. See documentation:

https://docs.zen-cart.com/user/payment/paypal_restful/

https://docs.zen-cart.com/user/payment/retirement/

In 2.0.0, this can be done through the admin; in prior versions it requires a code tweak (shown on the second help page above).

Thank you for the clarification @swguy

Maybe another silly question, is this okay to use for UK paypal? As recently paypal pro was stopped for most here due to the verified updates. I did move to another payment provider, but interesting to see how this goes in the future.

Is the pre-158 retirement procedure needed witht the mod not supporting pre-158?

Asking for a friend:P

It doesn't say "pre-1.5.8" it says "1.5.8 and Prior." I am highly confident that someone will (at least attempt to) do the fiddling to make it work on a pre-1.5.8 site.

Just wondering if we should send non-coders like myself on a Don Quixote mission. :P

I can change it to "Prior to 2.0.0" for clarity.

I've not tried on a UK PayPal site, but based on PayPal's documentation I *believe *that the payment module should work for UK PayPal as well.

Thanks for that. I might try it in the near future.

v1.0.1 of the payment module is now available for download.

This release corrects GitHub issue #12 (PHP Parse error occurs when doing transaction void).

Having some issues with v1.0.1 ... 2 different sites, both fresh plugin installs as well as 1 upgrade, which is unaffected & without error is (Zen 1.5.8; PHP 7.4.33; bootstrap 3.5.2; OPC 2.4.5)

#1 Zen 1.5.8; PHP 7.4.33; bootstrap 3.5.0; OPC 2.4.5
#2 Zen 1.5.8; PHP 7.4.33; bootstrap 3.5.0; OPC 2.4.5

I also have an OPC log that looks ok, I can pm you if needed.

Thanks

Those logs are being generated by paypaldp, not paypalr:

I know, but no logs before the installation, thought it might be related. The new plugin isn't working, gives me "We are unable to process your PayPal Checkout payment at this time. Please contact us for assistance."

Did paypalr auto-disable itself for some reason?

Yes, everytime.

mprough:

Yes, everytime.

To be clear, I set up the module... test transaction causes "We are unable to process your PayPal Checkout payment at this time. Please contact us for assistance." and the plugin turns itself off.

@mprough, you'd indicated

Having some issues with v1.0.1 ... 2 different sites, both fresh plugin  installs as well as 1 upgrade, which is unaffected & without error  is (Zen 1.5.8; PHP 7.4.33; bootstrap 3.5.2; OPC 2.4.5)

#2 Zen 1.5.8; PHP 7.4.33; bootstrap 3.5.0; OPC 2.4.5

Are all three sites running on the same server?

In reviewing the changes from Bootstrap 3.5.0 to 3.5.2, I'm not seeing anything that stands out as a potential source of the issue. I'll note, though, that my testing was done with Zen Cart 1.5.8a and Bootstrap 3.6.2.

I actually have 5 of these now. 3 on the same servers, 4 servers in all... 3 different hosts
