Hello. As far as I know, this is currently not possible.

You can try to manually create such buttons, but this is a very bad choice. Since you will have to create a product catalog page completely manually.

I'm hoping there is a better answer than that. If not, I'm going to have ot go back to my old software. It's unsupported, but it works. Or do a hybrid and use Webplus for all of the ecommerce.

I sent a notification about your question to the company employees, expect an answer from them here in the comments.

Hello Randy,

Yes it is possible but to do that you need to integrate the Paypal Checkout like a custom payment into WSX5

https://developer.paypal.com/docs/checkout/standard/integrate/

By here :

And into your custom payment form like into my demo I have little javascript function to display the progress bar before to go directly to the payment page.

So if I change the timer into the javascript, the redirection will done directly to the bank

Hope this helps

Enjoy!

Hi Randy,

But now with the new Paypal platform integrated into WSX5 you can configure it here

And the paypal button and Credit card will be directly displayed into the page just after order, to pay now like below

Enjoy!

The problem is  want my customers to pay using PayPal and they expect it to go to Paypal when they click the Buy in Now button. That's how all of the websites that I use to purchase products through using PayPal behave.

The screen before that says your puchase in complete so they don't think they are confused and do not realize they have to do anything else. Since there does not appear to be a way to fix it, I'm rolling my website back to the Webplus 8 version. That software is out of support for about 3 years, but still works better than Website x5.

It's a shame that after all the time I spent building the site, the one thing that can't be tested until it's live is payments and it is a fail. 

I over looked a lot of the other "quirks" of the software like no built in spell checker, but if I have to generate a PayPal invoice for every customers purchase, that's just stupid in my opinion, and I just don't have the time to do that. 

Good afternoon Randy

The final button generated directly by WebSite X5 cannot redirect you directly to PayPal because Paypal still needs to generate its own button with codes specific to gathering all of the info it needs, which becomes available only on the final page of the checkout process

As soon as your customer finalizes the order, he should get on a "Success" page where the PayPal (or any other payment system he chose) buttons appear allowing him to pay.

Did it happen to you that the user gets on this page and directly shuts the page down without checking the PayPal buttons that appear?

Hello Stefano,

You said...

I am not agree with you .

Success page is reachable when the payment is done and not the order ! and same for payment error.

After an order,
Just the customer displayed an order confirmation with the payment button just after the order... And the payment IS NOT DONE YET  at this moment... customer needs to click on the button to execute the payment.

Pls clarify if I do a mistake

Enjoy!
Axel

Maybe I'm missing something then and I'm willing to look futher into it. Is there a good tutorial that covers the entire ecommerce process including creating the success and error pages?

What I do know is that I had 5 orders come in and not one of them clicked the paypal button becasue it's jsut not that intutive that they need to. Once they go past that page, the PayPal button is lost, unless I'm missing something. My customers never needed to do the extra step before, so they are confused as to why they need to do that. 

Good afternoon everyone

@Axel

Yes, I apologize, I didn't explain myself properly. I actually meant the final page of the checkout process, where you receive confirmation that the order has been created and you can then pay for it. 

The success page is actually the one you can configure that your user will land on after successfully paying via PayPal

@Randy

We actually have a very comprehensive guide on how to configure the Ecommerce:

https://guide.websitex5.com/en/support/solutions/articles/44001416329-come-si-crea-un-e-commerce

I'm not sure the issue you're explaining can be solved by this guide however, since even I am not sure of exactly what is going on.

Can you share your website's URL here to me to perform a test? If you try it yourself, do you not see the PayPal button at the end of the procedure?
