Necrosaro420 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Whenever a customer purchase's an item from me (I use paypal only), I get the paypal email telling me how much they sent me, but I do not get a list of any sort of what they purchased. Is there anyway to get this to add into there message automatically? Its a pain emailing everyone back asking them what they purchased. Thanks!

Thank you Are the orders showing up in your admin?? If so look at them and then you know. If not then you have a different problem and installing the ipn module is a good fix and really is better than using the default paypal module anyway. Quote The Knowledge Base is a wonderful thing.

Guest Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I am having the same problem with PayPal and the orders aren't showing up in Admin. Do I need to install this IPN? What does it do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satish Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Hello, I get the same problem too but i dont understand what njnightsky said by Check your customer orders built into the software. :P can you please give a little more detail? Thank you Appears that you are using the default Paypal module that comes with Oscommerce box. In this case if the customer does not return from paypal to your site after making payment your order table will not get populated.So set the Autoreturn on in your paypal setting. The second otion is to use Paypal IPN contribution by oscommerce team. Satish Mantri Quote Ask/Skype for Free osCommerce value addon/SEO suggestion tips for your site.

Guest Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 i have found the autoreturn works MOST of the time, but there are still a few orders that never make it to get logged. in order to surpass the risk and looking like an unprofessional weiner emailing people and asking what they ordered, i've installed the following contributions to ensure, one way or the other... the order is logged! held orders: http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...rch,held+orders (complete time saver!) recover cart sales: http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1688 very useful outside of just skimming for paypal carts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
