[Support request] PayPal Smart Payment Buttons

[Rob]

Hi Guys.

Is there a known issue with GP Premium and Paypal Smart Payment Buttons?

I have downloaded a few different Paypal Express plugins, and they just dont work correctly.

As soon as I enable Smart Payment Buttons in the settings they dont appear:

In the minicart, or single page.

As soon as I disable Smart Payment Buttons options, it reverts to a different style button, and the paypal buttons then appear where I have told them to.

Kind Regards
Rob.

Also,

This is what the mini cart looks like when I disable the smart buttons.

Hi there,

can you enable the mini cart so i can take a look?

[Rob]

Hi David,

I have re-enabled that (or disabled that actually).

The buttons only work when Smart Buttons is disabled, very strange.

I wouldn’t normally mind, but the non smart buttons are actually being discontinued soon 🙁

Can you enable the Smart Buttons so i can take a look at why they’re not displaying?

[Rob]

Hi David,

Enabled for you.

So the HTML is being output – but it is empty. So could be a misconfiguration of the button plugin eg. not finding the gateway or a server caching issue

Hi David,

Thanks for your help

I can see the errors in console

Uncaught ReferenceError: paypal is not defined
at render (wc-gateway-ppec-smart-payment-buttons.js?ver=1.6.17:70)
at wc-gateway-ppec-smart-payment-buttons.js?ver=1.6.17:156
at wc-gateway-ppec-smart-payment-buttons.js?ver=1.6.17:171

What they mean, I don’t know, Ill have to see if I can fix it. Thanks again.

Rob.

Its generally a plugin configuration issue, docs here may be of use:
