Hi,
I'm using the paypal add-on with a form I want to display in an iframe. One problem - when the form redirects to PayPal, it stays in the iframe, if that makes sense. Is there anyway to make the PayPal redirect happen in the top window?
Thanks,
Jon
There currently is not, you'd probably have to edit the core plugin code to do this. I'm not aware of anyway to do this using existing features. But we can look into this on our end and see how we can improve this functionality in the future.
The problem is going to be PayPal returns you to your site and it's not going to know the form was in an iframe... it's just going to return the user to the form itself. So these are some of the issues utilizing an iframe is going to cause.
The PayPal Add-On does this, not the core Gravity Forms plugin. So you'd have to look in the PayPal Add-On code. You'd have to look at where it overrides the form processing to redirect to PayPal and see how you can modify that. So you'd have to customize the PayPal Add-On, not Gravity Forms itself.
I'm currently looking at a way to do this myself.
The purpose is to use Gforms and Paypal add-on in a Facebook page (iframe).
The redirect will not work within the iFrame, but a new target window is allowed.
If anyone has had any luck modifying the paypal plugin to do this, please advise.
Thanks.
It looks like I can accomplish this with a little javascript.. can't I change the onclick to open in a new window? Not sure exactly how to do this yet.. but I believe this is the portion of code needing to be changed:
<div id="paypal_submit_container" class="margin_vertical_30">
<input type="submit" name="gf_paypal_submit" value="<?php echo empty($id) ? __(" Save ", "gravityformspaypal") : __("Update", "gravityformspaypal"); ?>" class="button-primary"/>
<input type="button" value="<?php _e("Cancel", "gravityformspaypal"); ?>" class="button" onclick="javascript:document.location='admin.php?page=gf_paypal'" />
</div>
