Jimster_s Posted November 3, 2005 Posted November 3, 2005 hi is there anything wrong with the standard paypal option that comes as standard? why would i want to install a paypal module? Quote
Jack_mcs Posted November 3, 2005 Posted November 3, 2005 Yes, there is. If a customer places an order on your site, gets transferred to PayPal, makes the payment and then just closes the browser thinking he is done, you won't receive notification of the payment. After one or two of these you will be scrambling to install the IPN update.

Bob Loblaw Posted November 3, 2005 Posted November 3, 2005 Use auto-return with standard paypal. Works ALL the time vs. IPN at 50% if you are lucky.... Quote
Jack_mcs Posted November 3, 2005 Posted November 3, 2005 This isn't true in my, and many others, experience. Just take a look at all of the posts in these forums dealing with this subject.

Jimster_s Posted November 4, 2005 Author Posted November 4, 2005 ok thanks, so which one is the best there seems to be quite a few. i dont have ssl all i want to be able to do is let customers checkout with paypal and the order show up as paid or whateve it does in my store. if they can then get directed back to the store thats even better.

Jack_mcs Posted November 4, 2005 Posted November 4, 2005 Use the one named oscommerce_PayPal_IPN.
