jpweber Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 If I'm correct (I very well may not be), to set up a Paypal payment system, you need to: 1) Purchase/install SSL 2) Enable Paypal in your Admin/Payment Modules 3) Go to paypal.com and register for a business account. If that's it, why would I need to download the best paypal contribution and install that?

jasonabc Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Actually if you are just using PayPal you could dispense with the SSL as they handle credit card provessing n their site (not yours). There is a problem with the stock OSC PayPal module in that if a customer does not return to your site after paying on the PayPal site - the order is not logged in OSC. You therefore receive the funds - but have no idea what was ordered and paid for. You either need to specify the return address on the PayPal side to send users back to your site - or install the PayPal IPN module which takes care of this problem.

jpweber Posted July 25, 2006 Author Share Posted July 25, 2006 Got ya ... so the paypal_ipn is the module you want, and it's a necessary installation. Okay, I'll add that to my list of things-to-do. Thanks!

Jack_mcs Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 The ssl is used for more than the payment module so you should have one.
