Hi,
my question is related to the Paypal redirection screen with the spinner.gif (before Paypal)

I have a black template (YOOtheme) and the spinner is not nice, because like for Joomla ones, they are designed to be on a white background.

2 questions :
1) where is the called code for this screen ?
I changed plg_hikashoppayment_paypal/paypal_end.php with no success !

2) Probably due to my template, no animated gifs are animating.
- could you modify the spinner reference in PHP like :
document.getElementById('spinner').style.display = '';
document.getElementById('spinner').innerHTML = document.getElementById('spinner').innerHTML;

- or put the spinner picture in a CSS :
.hikashop_paypal_end_spinner {
background: url(spinner.gif) no-repeat;
padding-left: 20px;
}

PS : CSS way is working fine !

Thanks a lot.
Regards

Hi,

It's the file plugins/hikashoppayment/paypal_end.php that you should modify.

Alternatively, you could simply replace the image in the folder media/com_hikashop/images to another one.
Or simply remove the spinner with CSS:
.hikashop_paypal_end_spinner { display:none; }

Hi Nicolas,
I'll try with this file.
I tried to overwrite the spinner file, but the problem is that correct animated files are not animating in my template.
With the CSS trick, it works, but I have to remove the PHP code to avoid 2 spinners.

Could it be an option in the plugin ?
--> remove the spinner, allowing CSS templating

Well I finally had to remove the spinner in the PHP code because :
- it should be in a hidden page element. Thus it's not animating !
- if I use CSS to hide it, the rest of my page is not displaying (site footer) :woohoo:

If you have an idea ?
Thanks Nicolas

Removing it in the php is not a problem actually. You can actually do an override of that file by copying it in the folder templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/hikashoppayment/

Nicolas,
I heared that animated Gifs are not rendered when redirections are started.

One side effect with my YOO template is that my page stops to rendered in browsers (IE9, Firefox). The display stops after your code, and I don't see my page modules and footer !
1) If I refresh the page, I see the footer,
2) If I Show Source in the browser, the footer IS HERE,
3) If I Inspect the page with Firefox Firebug, the code stops after Hikashop and there's no footer.

A very skilled developper told me that most browser stops rendering when there's a redirection (Paypal).

Could it be possible to differ of one or two seconds, the Paypal Redirection to finish page render ???
Regards.

We had to change the code so that it starts the redirect immediately instead of waiting for the page to load as sometimes, other javascript errors on the website would prevent the redirect to be executed.

Doing like we do now allows to avoid that.

You can always revert back to the old method by doing the opposite modification:
