Hi, re [ www.biggerediamonds4less.co.uk](http://www.biggerediamonds4less.co.uk),

I'm trying to make Worldpay the dafault and auto selected payment method but if I leave the settings to AutoSelect it always selects Paypal. Is there a way to set the default method? I've looked everywqhere and can't find it. For the time being I've set it so that the shopper has to select one of the other. Ideally I'd like our preferred method autoselected.

Hi,

You simply have to change the ordering of the payment plugins so that Worldpay is the first one via the joomla plugins manager.

Hi Nicolas, Thanks for this. I have already done this to change the order of the payment options. However if I let it auto select the default payment option it select Paypal and I need it to select Worldpay.

Hi,

You can edit the view "checkout / payment" to add a condition in the if: Code:

if(($this-&gt;payment_method==$method-&gt;payment_type &amp;&amp; $this-&gt;payment_id==$method-&gt;payment_id)&#124;&#124; ($auto_select_default &amp;&amp; empty($this-&gt;payment_id)&amp;&amp;!$done)){ $checked = 'checked="checked"'; $done = true; }

Something like: Code:

$this-&gt;payment_name == 'paypal';

Hi, Thanks but I don't get it. I tried adding what you suggested but not sure why I'm doing it. Does it not autoselect the default payment method anyway? I want to make the RBS Worldpay the default method is there an easier way? Before I added Paypal it did indeed autoselect the worldpay! I just need it autoselected and also give the option for PayPal.

Hi,

The first one in the ordering will be selected automatically. There is no need to change any code.
Note that you will need to clear your browser cookies/cache to see the change.

Hi, as far as I can see Worldpay is the first one in the ordering in the 'payment methods' menu, although Worldpay is number one it has an ID of 10082 and PayPal at number two has an ID of 10014, does this matter?

I'm talking about the ordering column of the plugins manager of Joomla, not in the payment methods menu.

Yes and I've done the same on several other PCs without success. I've just tried it on a fresh iPad and it still selects PayPal

I checked your website and it seems that you turned off the option "Auto select default shipping and payment methods" of the configuration.

Please make sure that this option is on or the first payment method won't be automatically selected.

Hi Nicolas, I set "Auto select default shipping and payment methods" to YES and cleared the cache PayPal is still selected. Can you try at your end so you can see this yourself? You won't have to buy a Diamond ring!
