## Description

This is a PayPal Checkout Payment Gateway for WooCommerce.

PayPal Checkout allows you to securely sell your products and subscriptions online
using In-Context Checkout to help you meet security requirements without causing
your theme to suffer. In-Context Checkout uses a modal window, hosted on PayPal’s
servers, that overlays the checkout form and provides a secure means for your customers
to enter their account information.

Also, with Integrated PayPal Setup (Easy Setup), connecting to PayPal is as simple
as clicking a button – no complicated API keys to cut and paste.

## Installation

#### Minimum Requirements

 * WordPress 4.4 or greater

#### Automatic installation

Automatic installation is the easiest option as WordPress handles the file transfers
itself and you don’t need to leave your web browser. To do an automatic install 
of, log in to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins menu and click Add
New.

In the search field type “WooCommerce PayPal Checkout” and click Search Plugins.
Once you’ve found our plugin you can view details about it such as the point release,
rating and description. Most importantly of course, you can install it by simply
clicking “Install Now”.

#### Manual installation

The manual installation method involves downloading our plugin and uploading it 
to your webserver via your favorite FTP application. The
 WordPress codex contains
[instructions on how to do this here](https://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins#Manual_Plugin_Installation).

#### Updating

Automatic updates should work like a charm; as always though, ensure you backup 
your site just in case.

If on the off-chance you do encounter issues with the shop/category pages after 
an update you simply need to flush the permalinks by going to WordPress > Settings
> Permalinks and hitting ‘save’. That should return things to normal.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin work with credit cards or just PayPal?

This plugin supports payments using both credit and debit cards as well as PayPal.
The new Smart Payment Buttons feature dynamically displays PayPal, Venmo (US Only),
PayPal Credit, or other local payment options* in a single stack—without needing
to leave the merchant’s website.

*PayPal Checkout features may not be available in all countries.

### Does this support Checkout with PayPal from the cart view?

Yes!

### Does this support both production mode and sandbox mode for testing?

Yes it does – production and sandbox mode is driven by how you connect. You may 
choose to connect in either mode, and disconnect and reconnect in the other mode
whenever you want.

### Where can I find documentation?

For help setting up and configuring, please refer to our [user guide](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/paypal-express-checkout/)

### Where can I get support or talk to other users?

If you get stuck, you can ask for help in the Plugin Forum.

### Will this plugin work with my theme?

Yes, this plugin will work with any theme, but may require some styling to make 
it match nicely. If you’re
 looking for a theme with built in WooCommerce integration
we recommend [Storefront](http://www.woothemes.com/storefront/).

### Where can I request new features or report bugs?

New feature requests and bugs reports can be made in the plugin forum.

### How to remove ‘Proceed to Checkout’ button from cart page?

If PayPal Checkout is the only enabled payment gateway and you want to remove the‘
Proceed to Checkout’ button from the cart, you can use this snippet:

 |   |  <?php // Do not include this if already open! |  
 |   |    |  
 |   |  /** |  
 |   |   * Code goes in theme functions.php. |  
 |   |   */ |  
 |   |  remove_action( 'woocommerce_proceed_to_checkout', 'woocommerce_button_proceed_to_checkout', 20 ); |
