Payment methods - change order?

[VisHorizons]

Is there a way I can change the order of my payment methods? In my payment gateway page in Miva admin, I don't see an option to move the methods around.

As a side note, do most people here use the four-page checkout? Customer Info-->Shipping & Payment Selection-->Payment Info-->Invoice

I'm thinking about how that can be narrowed down to fewer pages (but also including Upsell at checkout). Or is this not worth the effort?

Thanks for any help.

There is a module that does this:

http://www.mivacentral.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&store_code=m&product_code=WCW-PAYGROUP5

Or you if you're familiar with the template code you can do it that way as well.

Thanks, that's just what I'm looking for. I should have searched Miva Central!

Brennan, is payment method sorting something that might become stock in the future? We deal with it on almost every build, would be great if it were a built-in option.

Yes I can answer that, it will become stock (as will be the option to switch to radio buttons or auto card type detect). Think Payment Supermod but built in (like we did with Shipping Rules).

Thank you!

Did this happen yet?

I have occasional customers writing to ask how to pay without an AMX card. I'd like to change the card order, and would also like to have radio buttons instead of the dropdown arrow. My customers aren't all that tech savvy.

Thanks!

For Shipping

                  <mvt:if expr="ISNULL l.settings:shippingmethods">
                     <mvt:if expr="ISNULL l.settings:fallbackshippingmethod">
                        <div class="shipping-row"><input type="radio" name="ShippingMethod" value="" />Unable to Calculate Shipping Costs</div>
                        <p class="bold">No valid shipping methods are available for your order. You will be contacted regarding shipping when your order is processed.</p>
                     <mvt:else>
                        <div class="shipping-row"><input type="radio" name="ShippingMethod" value="" />&mvt:fallbackshippingmethod:name; (&mvt:fallbackshippingmethod:formatted_price;)</div>
                     </mvt:if>
                  <mvt:else>

                  <mvt:foreach array="shippingmethods" iterator="method">
                     <div class="shipping-row">
                     <mvt:if expr="pos1 EQ 1">
                        <input type="radio" name="ShippingMethod" value="&mvte:method:module;:&mvte:method:code;" checked="checked" />&nbsp;&nbsp;&mvt:method:name;
                        <mvt:if expr="NOT ISNULL l.settings:method:price">
                           (&mvt:method:formatted_price;)
                        </mvt:if>
                     <mvt:else>
                        <input type="radio" name="ShippingMethod" value="&mvte:method:module;:&mvte:method:code;" />&nbsp;&nbsp;&mvt:method:name;
                        <mvt:if expr="NOT ISNULL l.settings:method:price">
                           (&mvt:method:formatted_price;)
                        </mvt:if>
                     </mvt:if>
                  </div>

                  </mvt:foreach>
                  </mvt:if>

For Payment, to sort them, just fix the settings like so:

 <div class="shipping-row"><input type="radio" name="PaymentMethod" value="paypalpro:VISA">&nbsp;&nbsp;Visa<br></div>
                     <div class="shipping-row"><input type="radio" name="PaymentMethod" value="paypalpro:MCRD">&nbsp;&nbsp;MasterCard<br></div>
                     <div class="shipping-row"><input type="radio" name="PaymentMethod" value="paypalpro:DISC">&nbsp;&nbsp;Discover<br></div>
                     <div class="shipping-row"><input type="radio" name="PaymentMethod" value="paypalpro:AMEX">&nbsp;&nbsp;American Express<br></div>
                     <div class="shipping-row"><input type="radio" name="PaymentMethod" value="paypalpro:PPAL_OSEL">&nbsp;&nbsp;PayPal<br></div>

or just put it in the for each

<mvt:foreach array="paymentmethods" iterator="method">
<input type="radio" name="PaymentMethod" value="&mvte:method:module;:&mvte:method:code;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&mvt:method:name;<br></div>

</mvt:foreach>

Since no payment options are pre-selected, you'll need validation. Put this in your header:

<mvt:if expr="g.screen EQ 'OSEL'">
      <script>
         function RadioValidator()
            {
            var ShowAlert = '';
            var AllFormElements = window.document.getElementById("ShipPaySelect").elements;
            for (i = 0; i < AllFormElements.length; i++)
               {
               if (AllFormElements[i].type == 'radio')
                  {
                     var ThisRadio = AllFormElements[i].name;
                     var ThisChecked = 'No';
                     var AllRadioOptions = document.getElementsByName(ThisRadio);
                     for (x = 0; x < AllRadioOptions.length; x++)
                     {
                        if (AllRadioOptions[x].checked && ThisChecked == 'No')
                        {
                           ThisChecked = 'Yes';
                           break;
                        }
                     }

                     var AlreadySearched = ShowAlert.indexOf(ThisRadio);
                     if (ThisChecked == 'No' && AlreadySearched == -1)
                     {
                        if (!ThisTitle1 && ThisRadio == 'ShippingMethod')
                        {  var ThisTitle1 = 'Shipping Method';
                           ShowAlert = ShowAlert + 'You Must Select a ' + ThisTitle1 + '\n';
                        }

                        if (!ThisTitle2 && ThisRadio == 'PaymentMethod' )
                        {  var ThisTitle2 = 'Payment Method';
                           ShowAlert = ShowAlert + 'You Must Select a ' + ThisTitle2 + '\n';
                        }

                     }
                  }
               }
               if (ShowAlert != '')
               {
                  alert(ShowAlert);
                  return false;
               }

               else
               {
                  return true;
               }
            }
      </script>
</mvt:if>

Re: Payment methods - change order?

no problem, in this case, I had this page opened at the time...otherwise it would take me 20 minutes just to remember where I put it...ok, not put it, but what I called it :)
