PinPayments Payment Method

We're looking to replace our current payment gateway on a site we are migrating to HikaShop
Existing gateway is PinPayments

Lots of digging and discovered this plugin which is somewhat out of date.

Anyone know of a more up to date version or alternative?
Not a lot of solutions for Australia, yes eWay which is a bit

Thanks

Hi,

I checked the code of this plugin and it looks fine as far as I can see. It should work with the latest version of Joomla and HikaShop.
Did you fine any issue with it ?

Thanks Nicolas

I'm not in the habit of installing apps that state J3 as the last update on my J4 site :side:
Thanks for that check as I wasn't too sure.

Will see what eventuates on the test site.

Thanks as always :woohoo:

Client decided to go ahead with Pin

Tried the J! install process and obviously got
JInstaller: :Install: Can't find XML setup file.
Unable to detect manifest file.

Unzipped to check ... Readme says
Unzip and install in /plugins/hikashoppayment/pin/

Did that and doesn't appear anywhere.

Thoughts?

Hi,

In the zip they provide, you have the folder plugins/hikashoppayment/pin/
Zip everything in that folder and install the zip via the Joomla extension installer and it should work.

On and on it goes where it stops nobody knows :silly:

Install when like a dream ...... except ... when I go to add a new payment I get the dreaded message that the plugin isn't compliant message
An error has occurred.
0 Call to undefined method Joomla\CMS\Application\AdministratorApplication::isSite()

Chasing down the devs has been problematic.
Also discovered that an Omnipay install is required which is equally as outdated.

Dead end unless I can get someone to update or build a new plugin.

I'm not a fan in so many ways with eWay, the only other Aussie payment gateway.

Hi,

Indeed this error indicates that the plugin was made for Joomla 3 and its code was not updated for Joomla 4 and 5.
I looked into it and the necessary changes for Joomla 4 / 5 support are not difficult to add.
I've made a pull request to push the changes to the repository of the developer :
github.com/Butterfly-Developer/hikashop_...ayment_plugin/pull/2
You can see the changes here:
github.com/Butterfly-Developer/hikashop_..._plugin/pull/2/files
You can manually get the code of the full pin.php from here ( github.com/hikashop-nicolas/hikashop_pin...ppayment/pin/pin.php ) to update the file on your end via FTP.

The Omnipay library is already included in the plugin. So you should not need to install it yourself or update it.
Providing a working payment plugin with an old library is quite common. You can't necessary update the plugin every few months when the developer of the library decides to publish a new version of the library. And usually, it isn't a problem to keep an old version of a library in a plugin for at least a few years.

As ALWAYS the support here is exemplary
:woohoo:
