make paypal ipn send comments

[barry100]

Hi all

Is it possible to make the paypal ipn send what is in the comments box before the order is completed or paid, the problem im having is that although paypal is sending the order before the payment is made some times there is no comments being sent (i think because people are paying then not returning to the shop) so the comments are being lost in transit.

If you still need a solution for this I found it out how the comments are being sent to admin before getting linked to paypal.

Here is the solution:

 

in paypal_ipn.php on line about 128

 

after

 

tep_db_perform(TABLE_ORDERS_PRODUCTS, $sql_data_array);

 

$order_products_id = tep_db_insert_id();

 

 

fill in this

 

 

$customer_notification = (SEND_EMAILS == 'true') ? '1' : '0';

$sql_data_array = array('orders_id' => $insert_id,

'orders_status_id' => $order->info['order_status'],

'date_added' => 'now()',

'customer_notified' => $customer_notification,

'comments' => $order->info['comments']);

tep_db_perform(TABLE_ORDERS_STATUS_HISTORY, $sql_data_array);
