Title: Sandbox Questions Last modified: October 25, 2016 --- # Sandbox Questions * Resolved [WP-77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/admin247365/) * (@admin247365) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sandbox-questions/) * Hi, I’m evaluating the plugin now in sandbox mode and have questions: – With the plugin ‘PayPal Options’ disabled I see that the ‘Card Payment’ form has a PayPal icon along with all the credit card icons. It seems there are 2 methods to accept PayPal in your plugin. Why? And what are the benefits/caveats for each option? – Under ‘Card Payment’ does your plugin also accept Debit Cards? If so, are there any test debit card numbers? – When I use ‘PayPal Options’ I see a ‘ Place Order’ button that does nothing but confuse the order flow for a customer. I found that I need to click the ‘PayPal’ button do proceed with checkout. Is there a way to disable/hide the ‘Place Order’ button? OR is there a way to add text instructions to the ‘PayPal’ button area? Thank you in advance!

The dropin form in sandbox will always have a PayPal icon. That is how Braintree has chosen to code their sandbox. That icon only appears in production if you have configured your Braintree account to accept PayPal. You can use the custom forms to have more control. * 2. Yes, debit cards are accepted. If you look on the plugin’s config pages you will see an obvious link that says “Test Cards.” Click that link and it will take you to Braintree’s card testing page. * 3. The Place Order button is part of WooCommerce’s standard checkout flow. We will not deviate from their standard flow. If you select PayPal then an html element will appear with the user’s information which is an indicator that they can place the order button. Test and it will make sense. For every request like yours we received 10 wanting it the way it is now so we have done this based on popular demand. * Kind Regards, * Thread Starter [WP-77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/admin247365/) * (@admin247365) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sandbox-questions/#post-8354854) * Hi, * I have noticed the ‘Test Cards’ but I see no ‘Debit Card’ or PayPal test card numbers on that page.

Enable the dropin form, click the PayPal button on on the checkout page and the PayPal sandbox popup will appear. It’s all very straightforward and easy. * Thread Starter [WP-77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/admin247365/) * (@admin247365) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sandbox-questions/#post-8355290) * Are you always this condescending with your customers? In my very first entry I stated I had tested the PayPal option. I would like to test a PayPal transaction in Custom Form (where there is an icon along with credit card icons). Maybe you could just let someone in the forum respond. It just seems like you won’t admit there is no PayPal card number after you said there DEFINITELY was one on the support page. * Plugin Author [Clayton R](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mrclayton/) * (@mrclayton) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sandbox-questions/#post-8355300) * Hello [@admin247365](https://wordpress.org/support/users/admin247365/), * This is a very straightforward process. I am not being condescending, perhaps you are reading too much into these replies. * I am not sure what you mean by not admit there is no PayPal card. I think you might be confused about how the process works. To test PayPal using the custom forms, enable PayPal and select the icon that you want to appear on the checkout page. Then on the checkout page you will see an option to use PayPal. Select that radio button and then click the PayPal button. A popup will appear indicating that it’s for the PayPal sandbox environment. From there, click the button to proceed and an html element will appear on your checkout page that says something like “PayPAal – [test@example.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sandbox-questions/test@example.com?output_format=md)”. Then click the Place Order button and the payment will be processed. * Thread Starter [WP-77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/admin247365/) * (@admin247365) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sandbox-questions/#post-8355367) * Below is a copy/paste of my very first post. How many times to I have to state that I HAVE used this PayPal option and don’t like it. WHY DO YOU KEEP BRINGING THIS UP???? You never answered the question of can text be added near the PayPal BUTTON to instruct a customers to click on it and not the ‘Place Order’ button? * If I cannot add instrctions I would like to not use this PayPal option but instead only display the Google Materail Design custom form WHICH HAS AMONG THE CREDIT CARD CHOICES – A PAYPAL ICON. To test this I would need a PayPal Card test number. * — original post — – When I use ‘PayPal Options’ I see a ‘Place Order’ button that does nothing but confuse the order flow for a customer. I found that I need to click the ‘PayPal’ button do proceed with checkout. Is there a way to disable/ hide the ‘Place Order’ button?

However, if you have a developer or have development skills of your own it is fairly easy to append some text using javascript. At this time that would be your only option. * If you want to use only custom forms and not include PayPal, then disable PayPal as a payment option in the Admin settings. To remove the PayPal icon, all you have to do is deselect that icon checkbox on the Admin settings page. Near the middle of the WooCommerce Settings page, you should see a settings called Display Payment Methods with approximately 10 icons with checkboxes next to them. Deselect the PayPal icon and click save. Then, the PayPal icon will no longer appear on the checkout page. * Thread Starter [WP-77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/admin247365/) * (@admin247365) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sandbox-questions/#post-8355429) * My Gosh!!! Do I only want to use the custom form? = YES Do I want to accept PAYPAL in custom form? = YES * Can this be done? Please reply with: YES or NO * Plugin Author [Clayton R](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mrclayton/) * (@mrclayton) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sandbox-questions/#post-8355433) * Hello [@admin247365](https://wordpress.org/support/users/admin247365/), * No, you cannot accept PayPal in the custom form. Your best bet for accomplishing that is to use the Dropin form which includes a PayPal option right above the credit card fields. * If this answers your question please mark this thread as resolved. Should you have anymore please don’t hesitate to ask. * Kind Regards, * Thread Starter [WP-77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/admin247365/) * (@admin247365) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sandbox-questions/#post-8355540) * So what is the purpose of having a selectable PayPal icon in the credit card section? * Plugin Author [Clayton R](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mrclayton/) * (@mrclayton) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sandbox-questions/#post-8355586) * Hi [@admin247365](https://wordpress.org/support/users/admin247365/), * The code that displays the payment method icons on the checkout page is the same for the dropin form and the custom form. Because of that, we offer the PayPal icon for users that have chosen to use the dropin form along with PayPal. Typically when customers want to use the custom form, they will uncheck the PayPal icon.
