Hi Ben & Team,

Thanks for all your support.

I have installed the Paypay Express Checkout plugin, by Angeleye. I need your assistance on a couple of items to make it a real express checkout.

1. If I add an item to the cart, either on the category or product page by the “ADD to Cart” button, it works fine. The cart page is from the Paypal plugin and the checkout goes directly to the Paypal page. Everything is perfect. The issue is the “Checkout” button from 2 other places:

(a) The cart dropdown menu: If I have the Show Cart icon in main menu, there is a popup menu showing the items in the cart, along with the View Cart, Checkout and Paypal Express buttons. But, if the “Checkout” button is click, it goes to the standard Woocommerce checkout page with the form(s) to fill out and not the Express checkout page. This defeats the purpose of the express checkout. It seems this button is not calling the Paypal Express plugin feature for some reason.

(b)Sidebar-with a sidebar having the Woocomerce Show Cart widget, the same issue happens as in (a).

I figured a way to hide the button in the sidebar widget, using “a.button.checkout{display: none;}” in advanced theme options. But this does not work in the cart popup from the main menu. I also tried “#kad-head-cart-popup a.button.checkout{display: none;}, but that didn’t work either. I would like to keep the cart icon with the d popup in the main menu, as this is a very nice feature. Is there a way to do this? Also, how to align the View Cart button to be centered, after the Checkout button is removed.

2. Small item: how to change the background on the View Cart on the category page. When the Add To Cart button is clicked,the View Cart is displayed on top of the item with a clear (transparent) background. How do I change to have a color background, if possible.

Thanks in advance.
