Paypal Payment Plugin & Userpoints Compatibility was created by Holmes-Pierce

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.5.0
-- Joomla version -- : 3.4.1

Hello,

Within the specific configuration of the 'Paypal Payment Plugin', If I set 'Send order details' to 'Yes'. It sends the full price to Paypal, rather than a discount price achieved with loyalty points.

For example, I have 50 points worth £5, the product is valued at £25. At the front-end of the website hikashop recognises the discount available and takes off the £5 to give a sub-total of £20. Then continue to Paypal and it's back to £25.

If I set 'Send order details' to no then it works and gives the appropriate discount, but then I have no order details at Paypal.

It's important for me to be able to push these details to Paypal as I know that it has recently caused a bit of confusion for my customers. Could you please help?

Many thanks,
Hal

Hi,

The points system uses the "additional data" system of HikaShop which allows a plugin to insert extra lines to the cart/order between the subtotal and the total.
PayPal doesn't offer the possibility to add such extra lines.

What we can try is to add them as item rows.
Try to add the code:

Code:

foreach($order->cart->additional as $product) {
				if(empty($product->price_value)) continue;
				$vars['item_name_' . $i] = substr(strip_tags($product->name), 0, 127);
				$vars['item_number_' . $i] = 'order additional';
				$vars['amount_'.$i] = round($product->price_value, (int)$this->currency->currency_locale['int_frac_digits']);
				$vars['quantity_' . $i] = 1;
				$i++;
			}

before the line:

Code:

if(!empty($order->order_shipping_price) && bccomp($order->order_shipping_price, 0, 5)) {

in the file plugins/hikashoppayment/paypal/paypal.php and test it.
Let us know how it goes. If it works, we could include that by default in HikaShop.

Hello,

I tried, but unfortunately I didn't have any success.

However, I notice that when I use a coupon that the discount is applied no problem. Is there any way to include it on this line? I have attached a screenshot.

Many thanks,
Hal

Hi,

As I had expected that code cannot work as you can't give to paypal products with negative prices.
I've made an additional patch to pass the point discount as a normal coupon to PayPal.
It seems to work fine now.
