Square Payment Gateway (Alpha)

[octoma]

Hopefully, This is proper forum etiquette. Whacking the dead!

 

2 part question:

I just started using the square mod. I'm interested to know.

1) How would you set the payment option to default?  The goal is to minimize the steps that the customer has to take (people are lazy and get annoyed easily) ultimately bypassing the pay/method page if possible.

2) How would you get rid of the shipping info on the square payment form (once again...people)? I want to declutter the page so it doesn't look like some mundane task.

I split your post onto its own thread. I hope you are using the Square gateway that is included with Blesta, and not the old alpha version.

1. Are you asking about defaulting to Square when making payment? Is Square your only payment option enabled? Someone has asked for the ability to do this, but currently the client must select the payment method.

2. Blesta doesn't ask for shipping information, where do you see this?

I've already disabled the credit card and ACH options. Square is my only gateway/payment option. 

what I'm looking to do is to make it so that the client doesn't have to select/click the little radio button. I've tried a few Jquery tricks to click onload, on.load, DOM while making that radio button hidden. nothing works. I've also tried including  'checked'  in the code.

 

 

2) square is getting the customer info and applying it to shipping info

I found a solution. Its a square peg in a round hole but, it works.

edit the blesta->app->views->client->bootstrap->client_pay_method.pdt

remove line 75:                     

<h4><?php echo $this->Html->ifSet($options_heading);?></h4>

 

then add  this to the very bottom of the page:     

<script>
jQuery(function(){
   jQuery('.gateway').click();
   $('.gateway').parent().hide();
});
</script>

The form will process without the need for the customer to click the radio button.

If I were adding that myself, I would set an embed code for that specific order page from Blesta under Packages > Order Forms > (Settings tab). Refer to the docs for an example.

Thanks, Tyson. I'm looking into that.

As far as the shipping data goes, I spoke with square and they said to use

ask_for_shipping_address to false

I've tried:

'ask_for_shipping_address' => isset($address = false),

'ask_for_shipping_address' => false

'ask_for_shipping_address' = false,

all have failed. any suggestions?
