Making a Page Style Primary
When you make a page style primary, it is applied to all checkout pages unless you specify
otherwise on individual payment buttons.
N OTE: If you do not designate a page style as Primary, the default PayPal page style is used.
To make a page style primary:
1. Begin at the Custom Payment Page Styles page.
2. Click the radio button next to the page style you that want to make your primary style.
3. Click the Make Primary button.
The Make Custom Page Style Primary page appears.
4. Click the Make Primary button to confirm your choice.
Overriding Page Styles On Individual Payment Buttons
Your primary page style is applied to all your checkout pages unless you specify otherwise.
You can override this behavior by specifying custom page style variables in the HTML code of
your payment buttons.
To change the page style for a button that you created already, replace the value of the
page_style variable with the page style name you want to use. The next time that someone
clicks the payment button, the checkout pages appear in the new style.
