OpenCart Community

Hi,

re: OC 2.0.3.1

wondering anyone can help.

Issue: When user checked out with PayPal Express Checkout, once get to the Paypal's side, they can STILL change the shipping address , AND once changed and paid, Opencart's record still remain as old shipping address, not sure to others but to myself, it will be a major pain in butt, as I actually won't have time to each time go through user's paypal email and Opencart's sale record to make sure the addresses match.

Question: How to stop user being able to change the shipping address during PayPal Express Checkout (at paypal site) ?

I have been thinking setting ADDROVERRIDE to 1. I attempted to modified the file /catalog/controller/payment/pp_express.php but I have no idea where to edit to make it work.

Thanks in advance.

anyone?

If address gets updated at Opencart's sale record AFTER user changed address at paypal side, it will also solve my problem.

anyone got idea how to get this fixed?

I have the same problem. Basically I think we need the paypal address to integrate back to the opencart order. I hope someone can help?

The easiest thing to do is put a disclaimer on your site that the address entered on Paypal will overwrite anything entered during checkout, and then feed the Paypal transactions into your shipping software instead of the OpenCart transactions. This way, you're shipping to the Paypal confirmed address. Just make sure the disclaimer is blatantly obvious on the site (i.e. red letters during the checkout process).

Unfortunately, unless you are an expert in PHP or are willing to hire a programmer to fix every conceivable thing on your site, it seems you have to figure out workarounds like this for OpenCart. I'm learning that quickly as I try to set up my store. The core code doesn't seem to take these sorts of things into consideration.

It's frustrating, that's for sure.

This is so annoying, we've potentially sent out hundreds of products to the wrong address!
If I can get an OCMOD working to update the OpenCart shipping address if different to the one sent to PayPal I'll post it here.
