Pay Pal question


lost-in-space

Recommended Posts

This is my first time using osCommerce.

I am setting it up to use Pay Pal as one of the payment methods.

 

My question is, Do i need to make any changes to the paypal.php to make it work, or is it ready to go as is?

 

I was looking at the paypal.php and I noticed this entry

 

$this->form_action_url = 'https://secure.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr';

 

This does not match the information Pay Pal sent to my client which is this

 

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"

method="post">

 

Do I need to change the top entry for the one above? If so do I just copy and paste it in its place?

 

Sorry for the dumb question but I have never worked with any of this before.

 

Thanks

Michael

Hi Lost Michael,

 

I added the PayPal contribution and needed to make no other changes other than those within the instructions.

So... if you did that, the answer is no!

 

Hope it helps!

It seems wise though to make a change in your paypal account:

 

Log into your PayPal account and go to profile

Click on "Website Payments Preferences"

Change Auto-Return to "On"

Provide return url: http://www.mydomain.com/catalog/checkout_process.php (for nonSSL sites)

this increases the chance that your custumers will come back to your site and finish the order (so it can be stored to your db).
