HI

I am interested in using PayPal Express for Australia.

How do I redirect to the PayPal Australia website instead of the US webste?

For osCommerce you would use:

CHANGE THIS
$this->form_action_url = 'https://secure.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr';

TO THIS
$this->form_action_url = 'https://secure.paypal.com/au/cgi-bin/webscr';

but I am not sure how or where to change this code in Magento ... please help…

Edit app/code/core/Mage/Paypal/etc/system.xml, find:

<config>
    <sections>
...
        <paypal>
...
            <groups>
                <wpp>
...
                    <fields>
... 
// on approx line 355 add this right before closing </fields>
                        <paypal_url>
                            <label>Paypal URL</label>
                            <sort_order>100</sort_order>
                            <show_in_default>1</show_in_default>
                            <show_in_website>1</show_in_website>
                            <show_in_store>0</show_in_store>
                        </paypal_url>
Now you can go to Admin > Configuration > Paypal Accounts > Website Payments Pro and edit Paypal URL for each website.

The URL should be in format:

https://www.paypal.com/au/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_express-checkout&useraction=<user_action>&token=

Where <user_action> is ‘commit’ or ‘continue’, depending on your preference of commit button text.

If empty, it will use default.
