Checkout with Paypal not showing up in BASK page

[tammu]

Paypal is enabled but for some reason I can't see the checkout with Paypal button in the BASK page.

What am I missing?

Thanks

Does the site have to be secured, as this is still in development with non https.

Are you using PayPal Express or one of the other methods?

[tammu]

Using Paypal Standard. We can use Paypal Express checkout if that's easier

Thanks

PayPal Express will add the button to the basket page you are looking for.

I have enabled PayPal Express but I don't see the button. I do see the PayPal Express tab in the BASK page in admin

[Matt Zimmermann]

Have you added the appropriate code to the basket page for the button to show?

[tammu]

What is the code sir as i don't see it in the basket page. Thanks

Place the PayPal Error Message token below the Miva Messages token in the page template:

...
    <div class="row basket-contents bg-white bottom-shadow">
        <mvt:item name="messages" />
        <mvt:item name="PaypalErrorMsg"/>
        <mvt:item name="basket" />
    </div>
...

Then, place the PayPal button token below the Checkout button in the basket contents:

...
        <a href="&mvte:urls:OINF:secure;" title="Proceed to Secure Checkout" class="button button-block button-square button-medium bg-green white uppercase">Checkout</a>
        <br />
        <mvt:item name="PaypalExButton"/>
...

Hi Matt,

Is it possible to add the PayPal Express button in the OCST page too. I see it is assigned to the page, Where would I need to add

<mvt:item name="PaypalExButton"/>

in OCST page

Thanks

Unless something has changed, the PayPal Express button is only for the basket page.
