Here is how to see your order contents on Paypal

[hankfrid]

I am going to be using strictly PayPal for a site I'm deleloping with osCommerce. It may sound like a stupid question, but could someone tell me what "IPN" is and where I would have to get it and put it?

 

Thanks,

HankFrid

[Guest]

IPN stands for Instant Payment Notification and the IPN mod is in the Contrib section. For more info on IPN go to PayPals site for more info.

[Guest]

you can pass any information you want as long as you have a field to send it in

 

just look at the fields that paypal has available, which ones you are using, which ones you arent, get the variable name of the data you want to send from OSC and put it into an unused field (as long as the data type is valid) and pass pass pass

so, has anyone integrated this with IPN .97?

Hi,

"For more info on IPN go to PayPals site for more info."

 

Where is the PayPal site?

[Guest]

paypal.com

[grantjm]

I just thought there was another site on osC that deals with PayPal. and its configuration.

[Dragonmom]

I there a way to get product options/attributes into paypal confirmation as well?

yeah, that's the problem!

[7thgencivic.com]

[7thgencivic.com]

How would I go about adding the order invoice number to the

tep_draw_hidden_field('item_name', STORE_NAME . ' ' . $xx) .

 

What is the code that I need to modify or add?

 

Remember, I am new here so I need help with this one.

Anyone???

What is the code that I need to modify or add? I do not need the site name or anything here except for the invoice number.

here is a mod to include into your PayPal module to you can see what the customer ordered on your PayPal payment notification (just in case they don't return to your site to complete the process and generate an invoice) -

BACK UP BACK UP BACK UP

change the following code:

function process_button() {

global $order, $currencies, $currency;

if (MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_CURRENCY == 'Selected Currency') {

$my_currency = $currency;

} else {

$my_currency = substr(MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_CURRENCY, 5);

}

if (!in_array($my_currency, array('CAD', 'EUR', 'GBP', 'JPY', 'USD'))) {

$my_currency = 'USD';

}

$xx = '';

for ($i=0; $i<sizeof($order->products); $i++) {

$xx .= $order->products[$i]['qty'] . '-' . ($order->products[$i]['name']) . '**';

}

$process_button_string = tep_draw_hidden_field('cmd', '_xclick') .

tep_draw_hidden_field('business', MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_ID) .

tep_draw_hidden_field('item_name', STORE_NAME . ' ' . $xx) .

tep_draw_hidden_field('amount', number_format(($order->info['total'] - $order->info['shipping_cost']) * $currencies->get_value($my_currency), $currencies->get_decimal_places($my_currency))) .

tep_draw_hidden_field('shipping', number_format($order->info['shipping_cost'] * $currencies->get_value($my_currency), $currencies->get_decimal_places($my_currency))) .

tep_draw_hidden_field('currency_code', $my_currency) .

tep_draw_hidden_field('return', tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_PROCESS, '', 'SSL')) .

tep_draw_hidden_field('cancel_return', tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_PAYMENT, '', 'SSL'));

return $process_button_string;

}

 

How do I use this with PayPal IPN Payment Module v2.3.2 ? also can I make it show the product attributes as well?

[cvelardi]

Anyway, I just learned that the 'item_name' field is limited to 127 characters, so it cut off after that....

 

Is there any way to extend the amount of characters allowed in that field?

 

Is there a way to put each item purchased on seperate lines with prices instead of it showing all purchased items on one line with a total?

 

Thanks,

Okay,... Now this thread is 5 years old.

Has this been resolved with the Newer Releases of osC that have been released or is this still an issue?

 

Can people still place an order and not actually Pay for it?

 

Is there a place in time that I can pretty much see and say okay this no longer applies because the problems were resolved in newer releases or are there still problems that are 5 years old and still havent been fixed?

 

I'd like to think that in the past 5 years this problem has been resolved already.

HI,

I updated the code in the paypal.php to include the details of each item in the paypal receipt. The mode has to change from _xclick to _cart. Here is the code. Hope this help.

I was getting the following error below:

 

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_IF, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /svc2/data/d1/web/abuttonaway.com/www/includes/modules/payment/paypal_standard.php on line 320

 

Please can anyone point out what I might be doing wrong?

 

Thanks in advance

[mick-uk]

Thanks omarts, Works a ttrreet.

 

Mik.

[Guest]

Thanks :rolleyes:

[omarts]

I am glad it worked for someone. My biggest worry now is gone that even if the order is not registered, I will at least see what the customers ordered in my paypal receipt.

[Guest]

i get this message when changing

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF, expecting T_FUNCTION in /public_html/includes/modules/payment/paypal_standard.php on line 317

 

i dont know where to start / end the new code.

 

what to replace?

new to all this,sorry.

[omarts]

I am new to all this too.

But the file I was modifying was paypal.phph and not paypal_standard.php

I am wondering if tehre are two different version fo files supporting Paypal Payments Standard.

 

Also, I figured out another issue with this:

If you use discount coupons and pass on individual items, Paypal does not provide you any option to pass on a final discount code or coupon, so your total at paypal is going to show up more like without the discount. Please be aware of that.

 

I am working on some work arounds - but its all going to be patching - for example, take x% out from each item if the coupons are used. Or similar strategy if the absolute amount for an item is used...

Has anyone done this modification to paypal_standard.php?

 

I only know enough programming to see that it is adding the missing fields & I see the section where it needs to be changed, but I can't quite figure out how to add it in, since the structure is different in paypal_standard.php.
