PJ2006 Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 I have hit a problem - which reading through this forum is well known. If customers do not select to return to my website, I get no notification of their order - so have to email them to find out what they ordered which is hugely unprofessional. One solution I have seen is to install PayPal IPN - but I have not managed to do this successfully. I'm wondering if auto return would be a simpler option - but I can't figure out how to turn this on - the option is not under Profile in my PayPal account. Thanks Quote

micheleangle Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 I'm having the exact same problem. Just started to occur when I transferred to PayPal. Am not receiving orders. Just wondering, Lotti, is Satish's advice worked for you? I will try it and let others know result. Michele Quote
micheleangle Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Satish - Where is the auto return? On PayPal? OsCommerce admin? What is the IPN Paypal module? Thanks. michele Quote

PJ2006 Posted December 4, 2008 Author Posted December 4, 2008 autoreturn is on paypal. Paypal MOdule that comes with oscommerce rc2 has that paypal module. Satish I have switched on auto return but sometimes this doesn't work - I think when the user does not have a paypal account or choses not to log onto their account - they they don't get auto returned - so I'm struggling with this one. I did see a couple of days back a contribution for this which may help - it's more about capturing the order. I have installed on contribution but it doesn't capture all the information I need. Quote
micheleangle Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 Thank you two for your information. Since my last note, I called PayPal twice - the last call earlier this week. I was informed that PayPal is currently working on this issue and should have it rectified by next week. I asked the man I spoke with if he would let me know when it is done and he said he would email me. I will post any findings when I hear from him. michele Quote

mrpointy Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 Did you ever get any response on this from Paypal? Did you ever get any response on this from Paypal? I'm using PayPal Website Payments Standard, but don't have any ipn.php page in my store, so should I be redirecting to checkout_success.php instead? Quote
