Add a PayPal Checkout Button to Onepage Checkout page?

Question

Searched around, but found no true answer. I wish to add a PayPal Express Button, similar to the Cart page, under the "Your Checkout Progress" review steps. Is this possible please?

Thank you.

Answer 1

you can do this by overriding the base phtml file.

this is located at: app/design/frontend/base/default/template/checkout/onepage/progress.phtml

copy this to: app/design/frontend/{your package}/{your theme}/template/checkout/onepage/progress.phtml

and add the code for the Paypal Express Button - template for this is at:

app/design/frontend/base/default/template/paypal/express/shortcut.phtml

which demonstrates the html and various calls to implement. I dont have a specific coded suggestion but this should give you the right pointers.
