Title: PayPal Express integration - Paying job
Post by: Ben Hunter on February 28, 2017, 11:28:57 AM
I need someone to do a job for me.  I use Joomla 3.3.6 with VM3.0.6 ?   I think, I can't find where to find current VM version. My site uses Cloud hosting through Netregistry.
I am trying to integrate PayPal express checkout into my site. 
I've used other sites where it is not neccessary for a guest to enter their name or address. The cart pulls their details from their paypal address and then returns to the cart to add shipping. 
I've got Paypal express in there and it works, but the customer still has to enter their name and address.
Can anyone help out?

You need to update first!, very important. I am sorry, but I fear no one will touch this old version

Thanks Milbo.  Upgrade Joomla or VM?

Both are well out of date and very insecure!

Test on a backup copy of your site, if you are using a commercial Jomomla/VM template then you may need to make some edits to the overrides files.
