Hi Daniel,

This is happening because you’re using PayPal Standard.
You can manually change the registration status to approved (on the Event Espresso > Registrations page)
You can stop this happening again by switching to the PayPal Express gateway. You can use the same PayPal account with PayPal Express, and you’ll get the credentials by following this guide:

1) Previously the single option of Paypal Standard was preselected. Now I’ve deleted this option, the single option of Paypal Express isn’t preselected at checkout, meaning that the user has to select it. How to I make sure that this single option is preselected as a default?

Go to Event Espresso -> Payment methods -> PayPal Express -> Open by default.

Set that to Yes and save the settings.

2) The Paypal logo is now appearing much smaller than it did when it was being used on the “Paypal Standard” (about half size), even though I’m pointing at the same logo file. Why is this and how can I fix it?

Did you have some custom CSS used to make the PayPal Standard image larger?

Can you link me to an event I can use to run a test registration so I can view this?

Yeah, that’s what happened – http://take.ms/nwddg

#ee-available-payment-method-inputs-paypal_standard-lbl .spco-payment-method-btn-img {
    max-width: initial !important;
}

I changed the ID’s used on the PayPal Express elements in the page to match what PayPal Standard would have used and found your custom CSS.

So within your themes style.css on line 35 you can change the above to:

#ee-available-payment-method-inputs-paypal_express-lbl .spco-payment-method-btn-img {
    max-width: initial !important;
}

OR

Rather than targeting specific payment methods (in which case this could happen again) you can target them all using this:

#ee-available-payment-method-inputs .spco-payment-method-btn-img {
    max-width: initial!important;
}
