I have 2 payment options, Google checkout cannot be used as I am awaiting ssl.
 
I have been banging my had against the wall with this for over a week. I have read all the paypal integration guides, which has been pointless as all I want to do is get the payment details page right, not integrate.
 
I am sorry to bump this, but could some kind soul give me some pointers.
 
1. What is the payment url for express checkout?
2 What is the cancel url?
3. What does passed / not passed mean?
4. If those options are checked, does it mean they are passed or does it mean they are not passed.
5. Which options should be passed?
6. Do I need to set any advanced parameters.
 
I am awaiting the outcome of a support ticket on this. It is the very last thing to do before my website goes live (which would be tonight if I could get this mess I have made in the admin cleared up.)
 
I really would like to stick with Viart, but I am finding it very difficult to evaluate in a timely way without some punctual and methodical replies to questions.
 
I am not a programmer in php or html, but can hack.
 
Incomplete replies with an expectation of prior knowledge are not useful and often raise more questions than they solve.
 
Then another question is raised and another couple of days go by (or it is never answered) and I spend more time researching my problem...and waiting for help..... sorry, rant over.

I am using PayPal Express in the UK.
 
All the URL's in the product were already correct.
 
The issue I had was clicking the Submit order button would also return an error that no response was received.
 
This was because I was using my live credentials for PayPal with the Sandbox mode set. The Sandbox mode actually requires you have a developer account and completely different developer credentials. I switched out of sandbox mode and it all worked.
 
It may help you too.

Hello,
 
Please, find below the answers to your questions.
 
What is the payment url for express checkout?
 
The payment URL that is specified in your PayPal Express checkout Payment system should be always 'payments/paypal_checkout.php'. Please, do not change it in any way.
 
What is the cancel url?
 
The cancel URL is {site_url}order_final.php
 
What does passed / not passed mean?
 
It means what parameters will be passed to the Payment URL script. In case of the PayPal Express Checkout all parameters is for an internal use only so all checkboxes 'Not Passed' are checked off.
 
If those options are checked, does it mean they are passed or does it mean they are not passed.
 
For this particular payment system it means that all these parameters will not be passed over GET or POST method to the script paypal_checkout.php, however a script gets all these data directly from the payment settings rather than from GET or POST method and all these parameters will be used to generating requests to the PayPal system.
 
Which options should be passed?
 
Please, do not make any changes to the default settings and all boxes should be checked off as 'Not Passed'.
 
Do I need to set any advanced parameters.
 
You do not require to set any advanced parameters for Express Checkout. Such parameters are required only for a PayPal Direct method or for other payment systems when a customer submits credit card details on your site via SSL connection.
 
With regards,
ViArt Support Team
