Payment Gateway Not Loaded on Mobile

    Hi 

    I have added a new gateway to our Social Engine site. In fact, I have added the code for the gateway inside the Engine_Payment_Gateway_Bpm class (Bpm being my gateway name), within the

    <pre>processTransaction</pre>

    method. It works by getting amount and order id from

    <pre>$rawData</pre>

    and then sending them along with other PSP-specific data to the gateway. The user then pays the amount on the the gateway and then is returned by the gateway to the callback url which was sent to it earlier as a parameter. 

    So far so good, but this works only as long as the user is doing payment in Desktop view. Once the user is in mobile view and places an order, the gateway is not loaded anymore. Does anyone know why this is the case? Does mobile view use other classes for payment I'm unaware of? Any technical guidance would be highly appreciated.

    I would like to add that this also does not work on SEAO's app, which is installed on Android.

    Are you using the SEPHP Mobi plugin? Most things require the mobi plugin to work on mobile.

    @Donna if you mean SEAO - Tablet/Mobile plugin, then yes we have it. But, I guess that's different from https://www.socialengine.com/features/php/plugins/mobile which you might be referring to.

    No, no the SEAO. The SE one, SocialEngine one that you linked.

    Perhaps the payment files aren't loaded in the mobile plugin.

    Yeah that's true, and I have no idea why that is the case and how I can know how to track its behavior in mobile mode (which files it uses, which classes, etc.)

    Hi Donna. 

    How can we enable the SE mobile plugin? How can I check if it is active on our website? I share a screen shot of a mobile page and hope you can tell me which plugin it is using. 

     

     

    Currently, I am pretty sure we have SocialEngineAddOns' Mobile/Tablet Plugin, as seen in the screenshot below. Could you please tell me which of the two is better? Can we enable SE's mobile plugin? I hope it uses the same payment mechanism as desktop web version, so we can use our gateway in both versions.

    I would really appreciate it if you could point me to the location where payment related scripts (php or js) for the mobile plugin are located.

    You need to log in to socialengine.com/login and see if you purchased the SocialEngine official Mobile plugin, https://www.socialengine.com/marketplace/app/mobile and then make sure it's installed and activated. I don't use any third party mobile plugin so I can't say if the SEAO one works differently. I suggest using a code editor such as Sublime, Netbeans or something else to do a search in files for the payment stuff for mobile if someone can't post the tip for you. It's not something I know about as I don't fiddle with this sort of stuff (payment gateways).

    Thanks I appreciate it.
