I'm setting up "Website Payments Standard".
It's in sandbox mode.
Everything is working fine but I'm unable to activate the "Guest Checkout" Option.
#. My paypal account is verified.
#. I've set SOLUTIONTYPE=Sole in my code (see code below)
#. Profile > Profile and settings > Web Preferences > PayPal Account Optional = YES.
Code:
<form action="<?php echo $paypalURL; ?>" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="<?php echo $paypalID; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="PROFESSIONAL PLAN">
<input type="hidden" name="custom" value="SOME_TEXT_HERE">
<input type="hidden" name="item_number" value="# Month">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="##.##">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD">
<input type="hidden" name="landing_page" value="Billing">
<input type="hidden" name="button_subtype" value="services">
<input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="#">
<input type="hidden" name="SOLUTIONTYPE" value="Sole">
<input type='hidden' name='notify_url' value='<?php echo $paypalNOTIFY; ?>'>
<input type='hidden' name='cancel_return' value='<?php echo $paypalCANCEL; ?>'>
<input type='hidden' name='return' value='<?php echo $paypalRETURN; ?>'>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>
What else do I need to do?
Pls suggest.
