Please help! Caroline")* Hi, Change the line: if(empty($this->plugin_params)) to: if(empty($this->plugin_params) || empty($this->plugin_data->payment_published)) in the plugins/hikashoppayment/paypalexpress/paypalexpress.php file and that way the orders should only be created if the payment method is enabled in System>Payment methods. Another way to avoid the issue is to rename the folder plugins/hikashoppayment/paypalexpress/ That will deactivate completely the plugin code, making it impossible to create orders through it.
