When connecting with a paypal commerce platform account there doesnt seem to be an option for using subscriptions.
From what I can see the custom api code cant be inserted into the custom code it shows no button, and I can add a subscription button but this then gives the selection option on the payment page again, albeit that is functional.
I am assuming at this point to use the API code generated on paypal I wold bneed to create the site using the paypal commerce and then insert the api code into the relevant file?
Is there a way around this I'm not seeing at the moment?
If the option is a button or api editing then perhaps this can be considered in upgrades....

Good afternoon Philip
I can confirm that, as of now, the PayPal payment method implemented into the software won't support subscriptions
For the moment, in case you need something like this done, you need to implement the code yourself since the Staff cannot unfortunately provide support for custom codes
However, if that is okay with you, I will turn the topic into an Idea so that this remains highlighted to the Staff for future improvements to the software
Keep me posted here
Thank you

Ok Cheers
Currently I simply create a paypal button, but for order management the end user then has to select the apropriate means of payment management, which either means another multi choice at payment, or if using a seperate product for each one the correct selection of order management for the subscription selection.
What may get around this is being able to have an option for linking specific order managements to products so that they are pe-selected. I did put anothe rpost for this, but it relates to this issue of subscriptions.
ow currently manage. If it could be linked to the correct order management it would be a better workaround. I
Its been some years since working out the software references, something for the weekends maybe..
Below Weekly chosen but the order management to select properly is not chosen.
Hello Philip
I understand what you mean but I have to confirm that unfortunately, as of now, something like this cannot be done with the software without implementing a certain amount of potentially complex custom codes
If that is okay with you, I rather suggest opening up a new Idea topic explaining exactly what you need in detail.
This way, the Idea topic can remain highlighted for the future when the developers are discussing new improvements
Please do let me know how you wish to proceed
Thank you
