help!
when doing a test purchase i get this error:
There was a problem connecting to PayPal to setup your purchase. Please try again.
* 579040 - The receivers fees@gmail.com and fees@gmail.com can't belong to the same PayPal account
the test purchase i am doing is from the main blog.. is it not possible to have a "store" on the main blog and also use the same paypal account as the main store with the marketpress chained payments?

if i set express to "all can use" so i can use it on my main site blog... won't that make the express option available to all network stores.. and then it won't calculate the 1%/chained payments if they select express as their payment option...?

Once you've activated and setup express on just your blog you can remove access and your site should still work with it. The network limiting doesn't remove it if already active on blogs.

ok that worked.. but... what is weird is that when you get to the "select payment" page (see attached screen shot) the paypal button/option doesn't show up.... :/

Maybe I was wrong about it continuing to work.
You can skip the check on the main blog by changing around line 4237 of the core file: //check network permissions
if (is_multisite()) {
to //check network permissions
if (is_multisite() && !is_main_site()) {

it does work.. if you click "continue check out" it takes you to the paypal check out page... it works fine.. just doesn't have anything on there to "select" from as it says "please choose your desired payment method"

i figured a solution...
i am going to make it where subscribers can use paypal express (which allows me/admin to use it for my cart) and non-subscribers have to use chained payments.. only way i can figure to do it right now.

I have the same thing on my website, no choice of payment options.
I have a question for you? Have you managed to apply for and get an APP ID from paypal for chained payments? I started before Christmas but it got complicated and I wondered if you had managed.
Thanks

arron,
isn't the "Payment Information" page only necessary in the case when you are offering multiple payment methods? if you are only offering one method.. it would be nice to just bypass this page.

Yes, except that most gateway plugins add a payment form below the choice, so I have to devise a way to detect whether the plugin needs that hook or not.

It's always been coded to not show them if there is only one method activated. It only displays the payment info form (cc fields, whatever). It's just with paypal express it doesn't need a form. What is probably confusing is the select a gateway text, which is just default and can be chagned on the presentation settings.
I do agree it should be coded to skip that step if it's not really needed in the next version though.

When I applied for the app ID they said it would be quicker if they had the app id from someone else who had installed marketpress. Would you let me have your app id to give them so they know the application details? You can email it to me ayzola@ayzola.com if that would be okay.
Also how do you go about making chained payments available for normal users and express for subscribers?
Thanks

Not possible, you can't take percentage from yourself to yourself.
Lead Developer (joined May 2009) Likes (0)
Note you can just use the express gateway on your blog.

Actually I think I may add that into core.

ok - making the change to :
//check network permissionsif (is_multisite() && !is_main_site()) {
caused it to now take me to a page like this (see attached)

I can confirm this on a 3.1 RC2 install with latest MarketPress and PayPal Sandbox account.

any update on this?
thanks
Lead Developer (joined May 2009) Likes (0)
Is it only if you use that code above, or with stock MP?
Lifetime Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
it happens with or without the code.
it's the same problem happening here: http://premium.wpmudev.org/forums/topic/please-choose-your-desired-payment-method
mason mentioned he ran tests and is seeing the same thing..
it seems to have started after upgrading to 1.1.6
thanks.

do you mean this:

should make it skip the page:
Payment Information
Please choose your desired payment method.
on the main admin blog?
thanks.
Lifetime Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
Payment Information still looks like this tho... why don't any payment methods show? i have paypal express selected.

is it possible to at least just show the one being used pre-selected?
or at a minimum to insert the paypal payment logo on that page so they know what method they are proceeding with?
i don't see where that text can be changed in the presentation settings...
thanks,
gina
Lead Developer (joined May 2009) Likes (0)
It's one of the tabs under product settings. You could put the logo there for now.
Lifetime Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
ah.. it's under "messages" tab..
thanks.

If you have the supporter plugin installed you can make chained payments for all, and express for supporter sites only.
