Paypal button not shown in one page checkout

Hi @whitehatfisherman

Just to clarify it a bit, each payment option is handled differently, for example, when you pick up the Direct Bank Transfer option, your customer will need to “place an order”.

Orders using Direct Bank Transfer are set On Hold until payment clears outside of WooCommerce.

You, as the store owner, should confirm that payments have cleared bank accounts before processing orders in WooCommerce. It’s important to verify that you are paid before shipping an order and marking it as Processing or Complete.

On the other hand, when the user picks up the PayPal option, all the process is handled by the PayPal API with the WooCommerce API, and depending on that communication, it will update the order status to Processing (when successfully) — you can also capture the funds later, manually updating everything —

That said, if I understood you correctly, are you looking to move the Pay with Paypal button below the order resume, is that correct? If so, this is handled by your theme.

So I’d recommend checking out with your theme developer to make this change, but as a side note, here’s a discussion about moving the payments options above the order, so you can adjust it to move it below the order:

Let us know if you have questions! My very best,

Hi Andre!

Thanx for getting back to me. I do understand how PayPal checkout works but thank you for taking the time to clarify anyway.

I think that you answered me by saying that the theme manages that and editing the theme is the way to go. However, just to clarify further, there is a screenshot of a normal checkout page with PayPal: https://prnt.sc/wFkYyUmY6lRx
My goal is to make the “one page checkout” plugin frontend appearance similar to that, so (yes probably) move the PayPal button where the “place order” would be.

Having said that, is your answer still the same?

Hi @whitehatfisherman,

Just to clarify, on this specific forum we provide support for the WooCommerce core plugin and third-party plugins are outside our support scope. So, in relation to your statement here:

My goal is to make the “one page checkout” plugin frontend appearance similar to that

Please reach out to your One Page Checkout plugin developers. They’re in the best position to provide support and assist you with what you’re trying to achieve.

I’m going to close this thread now since it’s not directly associated with WooCommerce core’s questions or issues.

Best regards.
