As I mentioned, the question is normally about item button code, not invoices.

One option is to include the "no_shipping" variable in your item button code with the value set to "1"

 

Allowable values are:

0 – prompt for an address, but do not require one

1 – do not prompt for an address

2 – prompt for an address, and require one

The default is 0.

 

 

If you're are coding your items manaually, the line of code would look like this:

<input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="1">

If you're using the online button creator:

 

For "hosted" or "encrypted" item button code you need to modify button code using the "Advanced Variables" in Step 3.   Note the text box near the bottom of the page.  There you can insert variable.   For example, to insert the "no_shipping" override variable just enter:

no_shipping=1 
 
There's no HTML extras, just the name of the variable, an equal sign and the value.

Thanks for the reply 🙂

 

But I'm confused, I don't have an item button.

 

I encounter this when I go to pay someone who has done work for us.  So I just login and push send money and go via that route.

 

This seems differant to your solution, or any I missing something?

 

Thanks

Sorry you didn't fully explain what were doing.  Basically the question you asked comes up quite a bit however, it's normally associated with item button coding.  Unfortunately there's no options or features to do what you have in mind.

Okay thanks 🙂

 

Is there any reason that this question always has to be asked?  It seems crazy as I will never have an address to click on, just years of clicking no address 😞
