 Hi

I have installed STRIPE plugin on our site, but it is not offered as a payment option within the checkout - just Realex (which we are trying to discontinue, by implementing STRIPE). I am very confused.

Linux/Apache
Joomla 3.8.11
VM 3.0.18
PHP 5.6.35

Hi Ciaran,

Thank you for using our Stripe plugin for VirtueMart.

Please could you check that the plugin is published in Joomla Administrator > Extensions > Plugins ? It may not be published by default after install (one little feature to add actually).

Then of course it should be published in VirtueMart > Payment methods but this one is rarely missed.

Kind regards,
Hervé

Hi Hervé

Yes, both plugin installed and published in VM Payment methods...

All right, that's weird so. Unless there are special conditions on the Stripe payment method, or on the Realex one, it should be displayed.

Please could you try the debug mode to get an error? I supposed you are familiar with it, and I put the guidelines below, they might come handy.

- To look at some common errors in the browser, open the JavaScript console:
https://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/8525/how-do-i-open-the-javascript-console-in-different-browsers
Then you may see a plain explanation of what is going wrong. Otherwise report it here.

- To enable Joomla debug, go to Joomla Administrator > Global Configuration > System (tab), and in the Debug Settings section, set Debug System to Yes, and Save.

Then the Joomla Debug console should be displayed at the bottom of the page, also in the front end.

- To enable VirtueMart debug, go to VirtueMart > Configuration > Shop (tab), and in the Advanced Settings section,
- set Enable debugging messages to For all,
- PHP Developer mode to For all,
- and, depending of your VirtueMart version, tick the Enable debugging of methods, to have only the shipment and payment methods debug.

Then the VitueMart Debug messages should be displayed at the top of the main content, also in the front end, depending on your template position for system-message-container.

Please let me know what is displayed.

Kind regards,
Hervé

Hi Hervé

After much work effort, I finally managed to resolve the issue. I decided to upgrade VM from 3.0.18 to 3.2.14. This seemed to resolve my issue of STRIPE not appearing as a payment option.

It only took me 6 hours to resolve this.

Once again, VM has shown its true colours to me........each time I realise that migrating my eComerce clients over to WP and WooCommerce has the been the best decision I have ever made. 25 WooCommerce sites, with a multitude of third party plugins and payment methods, and never any issues!

Regards

Ciaran

Hi Ciaran,

I am sorry to hear that it took so long. It is strange, as I have many clients with VM 3.0.x series, and no such issue reported. At the same time, troubleshooting VirtueMart set up can be complicated, especially with many plugins as well.

I understand where you are coming from, and that is a pity that VirtueMart did not fit your needs. I have different experiences with VM, fortunately most of the time positive. So this is good that we, site designers, builders and maintainers, have many choices among online solutions.

Any way, I am glad that you found the solution that works for you!

Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance to you. Have a nice day!

Hervé

Stripe Plugin for Virtumart best Ever

12 November 2019
star starstarstar star 
Functionality

Once you go through the documentation and try out the settings (and don't forget to test it with a "test item", it works like a dream.

Ease of use

Very easy to use, though a little play with the settings may be needed to get an understanding of the system. And you need a stripe account.

Support

Best support ever. Hervé has been very patient and kind and helped me greatly when the Stripe plugin no longer spoke with the new updates.

Documentation

Documentation is very good. You do need a Stripe account, and you need a little "try out" time to get it all in place.

Value for money

Yes, very much value for money. The plugin, Hervé's support, the easy for the customers to use it. It is all worth it.

I used this to: I use it for my IMRF Bookshop: imrfbookshop(.)org. People can now pay by credit/debit card, Paypal (different plugin) and they can request an invoice and pay by bank transfer.
Owner's reply: Thanks a Million for your excellent review! This means a lot to me. And on a early Tuesday morning, you not only you made my day, but you made my whole week! Please accept my sincere gratitude for your feedback and for your trust in my services.

This plugin is great! At first I couldn't get it to work with my install of joomla and virtuemart--but the great tech support from Puma-it (Herve) did real right by me, helping me to quickly resolve the problem and get this up and working on my site. Thanks Herve for your great Code and keep up the great work!

Owner's reply: Thank you Sethtc for sharing your review on my plugin and support services! That is the first review, so I feel very proud. Serving our customers as best as we can is rewarding, I know it!
