    Hi,

    I can't see the "Use PayPal Profile Based Shipping" checkbox. I'm on WP eStore 2.4. I checked in the settings menu. Nothing there.

    Thanks for your help

    I introduced the "PayPal profile based shipping" after 2.4 which is why you can't see it in the settings menu. I have sent you an updated version in your email.

    Hello,
    I'm using v2.7 and I can't find the PayPal profile based shipping checkbox in the settings. Am I doing something wrong?

    Hi Eddie, You can find this option under 'Paypal settings' in the 'Payment Gateway Setting Tab' (this can be found at the top of eStore setting page).

    Let me know how it goes.

    Cheers,
    Ivy

    Sorry to be so difficult but I guess I don't understand where this is. I'm using the Free version of "Simple PayPal shopping cart v2.7" I cannot find the PayPal settings or anything about Payment Gateway Settings tab. Is this on all versions?

    Your plugin is beautiful and I am looking forward to getting my shop open. I have encountered a problem, however, because I want to sell both digital and physical products.

    I decided to turn off the Paypal Profile Shipping Settings because I didn't know how to configure my current Paypal service (basic web payment) for both the digital and physical products. But guess what? After I get over to the Paypal login window, when I click on calculate tax, it STILL adds in the shipping and tax I have configured in Paypal. So apparently it would charge customers extra shipping for downloads as well as tax, when tax is not levied on digital downloads. Wondering why the Paypal Profile is not OFF? I have unclicked it in "Use Paypal Profile Based Shipping." I have PHP 4. Do I need another workaround?

    Thanks.

    You will need to turn off the profile based shipping stuff on your PayPal profile too. Please post a link to the products in question so I can add them to the cart and see what information is getting submitted to PayPal.

    I am using the profile based shipping profile in Paypal for some physical products elsewhere on my site. I really don't want to turn the profile based shipping off within paypal! Here is the link where the products are set up: " http://www.songsfromtheword.com/NewChristianBooks/?page_id=707 Please let me know what I can do. Thanks.

    Lets try to pass in a value for shipping to the PayPal checkout page which should make it so that PayPal will not apply the profile based shipping for checkout from this site. Please open the "eStore_payment_submission.php" file and search for the following:

    //$myPaypal->addField('shipping_1', $shipping);
    $myPaypal->addField('handling_cart', $shipping);

    once you find it change it to the following:

    $myPaypal->addField('shipping_1', $shipping);
    //$myPaypal->addField('handling_cart', $shipping);

    Then try a checkout and let me know how you go.
