PayPal Pro - Remove Card Start Date & Issuer?

I foolishly thought removing those segments from the /catalog/view/theme/default/template/payment/pp_pro.tpl would do the trick, but then it won't process correctly.

Did I just remove more than I should have, or should I be making code modifications elsewhere?

So think about this.. the tpl file sends its data to the server side php file. So if you remove it from the tpl, and the php server file expects it, it will throw an error.

Instead you'll want to HIDE the fields, thus passing back empty values for those fields.

So add to the parent div or table row of that section

Of course. That makes perfect sense to even a non-coder like me.

Thank you again for ALL of your help.
