Hi,

I want to know how we change the default language when we click to proceed checkout by Paypal.
By default, the country is Germany.
I want Switzerland and the language French. How we change that in the plugin.
By default here is the URL in HikaShop Paypal payment plugin : www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr

I want to put <input type="hidden" name="locale.x" value="ch_FR">

Thanks a lot.

Best Regards

Hi,

Then you can edit the file plugins/hikashoppayment/paypal/paypal_end.php and add it just before:
</form>

Hi,

Then it means that PayPal doesn't support that locale.x parameter or that the ch_FR valeur is not valid for PayPal.
Either way, we can't help.
If it's the valeur, then use fr_FR instead. I doubt that the swiss french interface of PayPal is any different than the french french interface.

Hi,

Then, it's probably that the locale.x parameter doesn't exist.
I actually don't know of such parameter.
From what I know, there is a "lc" parameter you can use for that instead.
So you could try instead:
<input type="hidden" name="lc" value="fr">

Hello,

See here for the variables available and what you can put in them for the value: developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/paypal...ndard_htmlvariables/

Also, PayPal Pro is not available for Switzerland so the payment method is disabled automatically. It wouldn't work anyways as PayPal doesn't authorize it.
