Buying gems with PayPal on Google Chrome

Hi,

If you are having problems with buying gems with PayPal on Google Chrome the following trick might help.

Using PayPal to buy gems opens a popup window that Chrome pop-up blocker blocks. You can open the blocked pop-up from the icon in Chrome omnibox.

This is still a problem when trying to buy gems with PayPal or with credit card

Have you allowed pop-ups from thesettlersonline.com?



I raised this topic back up because people were were having this problem in the Help channel.

Doh yes.

A complete random guess - some kind of firewall issue? I don't use Windows Firewall and instead use another (which I find much better) so could it be something like that?

No.
When credit card or PayPal is selected the Buy-button opens a pop-up window and at least Chrome blocks all pop-ups by default so the popup that asks your credit card information or PayPal credentials gets blocked. Look at the picture in the first post.
