Hello,

It should be there.. This is strange. You did a fresh install or an update?
Can you please try to reinstall the component AIO?

Hello saviB,

Do what alatak suggest's you and also take a look under the plugin manager if paypal is enabled.

If is not there and you should install again AIO take a look with PHP myadmin and see if the plugin has been installed but is deactivated from joomla plugin manager. There is a possibility if you make an upgrade and in your prior installation have uninstall it after the upgrade is not exist in plugin manager but you are able to see from the database that is installed.
When you install again AIO extensions take a look if the a message appears that plugins where already installed and there is no need for installation, then backup your site, uninstall AIO and re install.

Regards

OK! I reinstalled the AIO using: com_virtuemart.2.0.12_ext_aio.zip checked the payment method and PayPal is there! HOWEVER, if you then go to the AIO component and upgrade:  Installed version 2.0.10.K5 / Latest version 2.0.12b Then PayPal is gone. Maybe got forgotten in 2.0.12b?

Thanks for the fix.

Hello,

Installed version 2.0.10.K5 / Latest version 2.0.12b Then PayPal is gone. Maybe got forgotten in 2.0.12b?

It is not forgotten. It is just a bug in the 2.0.12b when updating.
ok, i will fix that asap for the next version 2.0.12c

[saviB]

Sweet! Thank you for taking care of this. Virtuemart is outstanding!

Hello

I tried several installations and i am not able to reproduce your problem.
I tried:
install 2.0.10 and then update to 2.0.12, ad 2.0.12b:
and this one
install 2.0.10 and then 2.0.12b
paypal and all the other payment methods are still there

can you give me more input? how you get that problem?

[saviB]

Sure. The steps to reproduce:

1. Install AIO: com_virtuemart.2.0.12_ext_aio.zip

2. Check Payment method list. PayPal exists.

3. Use the upgrade tool in AIO componenet to upgrade to  Latest version 2.0.12b

4. Check Payment method list. PayPal no longer exists.

5.  RE - Install AIO: com_virtuemart.2.0.12_ext_aio.zip

6. Check Payment method list. PayPal exists again.

I captured a video of it for you. Would you like to see it?

alatak, since I have your interest, can you have a look at this post: http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=108715.0 Its a real problem for me as I have a lot of menu items...

A quick fix for the missing paypal option is to open Joomla's plugin manager. There you should find VM - Payment, Paypal - open it and then save. The option should then reappear.

I just did this on 2 sites & it worked for both.

I can only help with access to an installation with that error.

Hello

Thank you.
I found the problem. You have another extension with the element called Paypal installed.
I am fixing that for the next version.

I have the same problem.

My configuration is Joomla! 2.5.7/Virtuemart 2.0.12b.

In either version of VM2 I have plugin called 'Paypal' but not 'VM - Payment, Paypal'. This 'Paypal' is enabled. I tried reinstalling component AIO several times, upgrading to latest version, but either way I have only 'PayPal' and not 'VM - Payment, Paypal', hence I cannot setup paypal payment options.

Any suggestions? Is there a way to manually install the 'VM - Payment, Paypal' plugin somehow?

regards!

[alatak]

Hello,

The plugins are named now 'Paypal', and not any longer 'VM - Payment, Paypal'.

If you are not sure, go in the Joomla plugin manager, and select the type= vmpayment, and you will see paypal

Appreciated!
