3 months ago I created a website using Event Espresso 4 Decaf version 4.8.42. Paypal Standard was one of the payment methods offered to configure for ticket sales on the website. Yesterday I started on another website using Event Espresso 4 Decaf version 4.9.20. and Paypal Express is the only paypal option available. I need Paypal standard, how do I get it?

Hi Bev,
PayPal Standard is turned off by default now, but you can turn it on by using a plugin like “Members” or “User Role Editor” and adding the following capability to your WordPress user role:
ee_payment_method_paypal_standard
You may also need to add the following code to a functions.php file in the active WordPress theme or into a functions plugin:
add_filter( 'FHEE__EE_PMT_Paypal_Express__register_payment_methods__hide_paypal_standard', '__return_false' );
Please note that PayPal Standard is no longer supported and PayPal Express is recommended to be used in its place.

Oh, I was told that by purchasing the support license, that included paypal standard. So that’s what I did, and it includes paypal Pro, not paypal standard.

In any event, the code you mentioned is working, but upon testing, when the registrant is turned over to their paypal login, there is no option to pay by credit card, it has to come out of their paypal balance. How do I include the credit card option?

If you’re logged in to a PayPal account or have a cookie in your browser that shows you’ve been logged into a PayPal account, PayPal will not give you an option to pay by credit card. You’ll see an option to pay by credit card if you try in another browser that hasn’t been logged into PayPal.

oh ok thanks Josh. I have another issue (maybe should start a new thread?) it has to do with adding copy to the registration page. I tried typing in the content window but nothing appears. Tried the excerpt area too. How do I add copy to the top of the registration page?

I tried typing in the content window but nothing appears.
That’s probably a theme or plugin conflict causing that. You can rule out a potential theme or plugin conflict by following these steps:
1) A theme conflict. You can rule this out by temporarily switching to the default WordPress theme, then test. The theme test drive plugin allows for testing another theme without actually changing your site’s theme.
2) A plugin conflict. You can rule this out by temporarily deactivating any other installed WordPress plugins. Then you reactivate them one by one, while testing the error condition between each reactivation.
Please start a new topic if you run into any further issues and we’ll be happy to help you sort those out.
