No payment methods found

Hi, just installed hikashop business 1.5.4 on joomla 1.7.2. and doing one of the tutorials but, a problem.

I've set up payment methods 'bank transfer' and paypal, enabled them. When I go to the frontend and click buy I get the message "No payment methods found" and "Please enable your payment methods". Any ideas on this??

Thanks in advance for your help!

From another thread, I set my default currency to AUS$, loggged in and out, and with euro disabled, I have my 'Bank Transfer' payment method showing!! But not Paypal.

Half way there, any ideas though on how to get paypal to show??

Hi thanks for that, it was this:

If you restricted your payment methods to zones, check that the address you're using is inside those zones ! Otherwise the payment methods will be filtered out.

By deleting a zone I had set, the payment method appeared. Great! (I just need paypal for everybody at this stage.)

But I'm missing how should zones work in relation to shipping.

If I make a shipping inside New Zealand method and an international shipping method, I'm expecting there will be no shipping displayed until they enter their address on the first checkout page. Instead internationl shipping is displayed (see screenshot). How do I hide shipping options here?

Then, on the next page I'm expecting just New Zealand options to be shown. Instead, although the New Zealand options appear, the international options remain. How do I make these international options disappear for NZ people and remain for others?

And in the config, I see there is a place to put the store address. Is there a place to set its zone too?

Thanks for your help!

Hi, thanks for the quick answer again.

I think it's because I don't have any zone restrictions set at all for my international shipping options. With my main tax zone set for New Zealand and default country field as New Zealand, then the shipping set for New Zealand shows because it has New Zealand as the zone, and the international shipping shows because it doesn't have any zones set for it.

So I'm hoping setting the international options as everything but New Zealand should make them disappear, unless the customer gives an international address. But how do I set the international shipping zone as everything but New Zealand?? The select all option only works for one page and there are 44 pages !!

And where do I find the sub-zone settings, if I want to make New Zealand a sub-zone of Pacific for example?

Much appreciate your help!

Great, the shipping options are coming up as expected now, thanks!

Do I need to set 2/3 letter codes for this entry? And how does the currency setting work for zones? Can I leave it as 'None'?

I am getting the same message on Paypal.. even though Zones and Taxes are setting correctly.
I only want to use one country.
Please help urgently

Hi.. I've attached a screen shot of the Paypal plugin.
I also have Hikahop on another site, and I've mirrored settings as the other one works.
The only difference is, is that this new site has the newer version.
But it keeps saying ' no payment methods found' when I've got the Plugin enabled.
Cheers

Hi Yes.. it is limited to Australia... as the site is not international. Aus based.
Same as the Tax Zone is set to Australia as well.
And the address is set to Aus... these are the settings I require for the site.
How come it's not displaying. As I only need these settings. Not other countries.
I checked the Joomla pluggins manager and all is fine.
Please help me get it to work in Aus. Cheers, Craig
