Third-party plugins
Third-party plugins and templates can affect the usability of our plugin and may even cause it to stop working. So, before using or updating them and each update, check to if there are any changes on the test system.

Migration from an existing plugin

icon warning
Important for existing customers or users who already use the existing plugin (heidelpay/magento2 or heidelpay/magento2-merchant-gateway).

For users who already use the existing plugin, it is necessary for a transitional period to include both store plugins in parallel in the store and to leave the old one configured and active. The new plugin cannot reference old orders/transactions.

Therefore, you should preferably activate the required payment types in the new plugin and deactivate the corresponding payment types in the old plugin. The old plugin must continue to be configured and activated for the old orders placed via it in order to continue to ensure the payment processing of existing orders (for example, for a return or refund).

Step 1: Install the plugin via Composer

  1. Install the Plugin using Composer.
    composer require unzerdev/magento2
    
  2. Once Composer has installed the dependencies and the plugin, activate it using the following command: php bin/magento module:enable Unzer_PAPI --clear-static-content
  3. Run the setup:upgrade command through the console, to import the plugin schema into your database:
    php bin/magento setup:upgrade
  4. The following commands clear the cache and execute the final steps for plugin installation— the generation of dependency injection and deployment of static files for the front end. php bin/magento cache:flush
    php bin/magento setup:di:compile
    php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

The installation is now complete, and you can configure the plugin in the admin back end.

Step 2: Configure your plugin environment

In the store backend, go to Stores > Configuration.

  1. Select Sales > Payment Methods.
  2. To configure the store view, select the level that you want to configure in the top left corner. Normally, you can configure settings for the module in the Default Config. This means that the key pair configured here is used for all store views.

Alternatively, you can configure different key pairs for each store view.

Logging and DebuggingThis option can be activated to log debug information about the moduleWhen Logging and Debugging is enabled, all queries to the payment interface and their responses are logged to var/log/unzer_debug.log.
