I see that PayPal does not have a Thank you page, Please correct me if I am wrong? 2.1. If (2.) is yes, so in this case we need to create a "Thank you" page our-self that will be the return url from PayPal site after the payment is completed. after the return from PayPal, is there way to get the order_id of that payment? 3.

It will depend on the Payment method that you want to use, but for some payment methods you have a sandbox option or URL that you can use to test your Payment method/credentials/.. 2. The PayPal thank you page is the "after_end" file of the "Checkout" view of your front-end template that you can edit via "Hikashop->Display->Views". 2.1 You'll be able to access it through the variable $this->order->order_id 3. Their is no "Checkout AJAX" option, so for the moment the only solution will be to add every checkout actions in an unique step through your checkout workflow via "Hikashop->System->Configuration->Checkout".
