Displaying Payment Gateway Logos in CubeCart V5 Checkout

Displaying Payment Gateway Logos in CubeCart V5 Checkout.

One fairly simple but often requested modification for older CubeCart versions (V3 and V4) was to be able to display a small logo for each enabled payment gateway in the checkout process. Shown below is the way to achieve this with CubeCart V5 – it does require (as of CubeCart V5.2.1 which is the latest at the time of this post) one very small change to a core file but we are hoping that this will be changed in the future release so even this small code change is no longer required.

CubeCart Core File Change

Edit classes/sanitize.class.php and on line 30 change

[code language=”html”]private static $exempt = array(‘description’, ‘offline_content’, ‘doc_content’,’content_html’, ‘content_text’, ‘cat_desc’, ‘copyright’, ‘maillist_format’, ‘store_copyright’, ‘htaccess-data’);[/code]

to

[code language=”html”]private static $exempt = array(‘desc’, ‘description’, ‘offline_content’, ‘doc_content’,’content_html’, ‘content_text’, ‘cat_desc’, ‘copyright’, ‘maillist_format’, ‘store_copyright’, ‘htaccess-data’);[/code]

Change in Admin Control Panel

Then you are able to add very simple html code to the payment gateway description field in order to display the image – an example to add the logo to PayPal :

In Admin | Modules | Payment Gateways option edit the PayPal gateway and add the following to the description field – this is ideally put at the start of the description and before any text used to describe the payment method.

[code language=”html”] PayPal[/code]

Below is an example of how it looks on a customer payment gateway choice page in the checkout where logos have been added to a number of different gateways :

The following two tabs change content below.
