Problem with a Premium purchase

The premium issue is most likely due people not returning to your list ( you are being redirected back to merchant in 10 seconds ), so a start date or whatever never gets into database.

Next premium release make use of paypals notify url where then the checks happens instead on the url where people return to. That should be more bulletproof
Hello,

I come back on this subject, I have the latest version and still no implementation of notification (ipn) of paypal. I have indeed a member having taken a Premium subscription, he didn't have to come back to our site following his payment, so the Premium flag has not been activated so it has not been processed.

During the purchase, there is just :
<input type="hidden" name="return"
he's missing:
<input type="hidden" name="notify_url"
and maybe:
<input type="hidden" name="cancel_return"

Is it possible to set up this system quickly?
Thank you in advance

Did you paste the token from paypal after enabling Payment Data Transfer?

Yes, the Paypal token is well-informed.
The member did not have to come back to our site after his payment, so without ipn, the premium flag was not activated.

Well that is odd, paypal should ping the return URL so it doesnt matter if the user comes back to your site after payment. But I will prioritize the paypal payment update so we get IPN rolled in sooner.

Yes, paypal should ping the return URL IF it exist a IPN (notify_url) information

I try to put the value of <input type="hidden" name="return" value
in <input type="hidden" name="notify_url" value
but it doesn't work :/

Thank you in advance for correcting this problem

The list is never ending, at some point I gotta just release and get on to the next version. I’d like to release every couple months or so.

It wasn't a reproach, I understand that there's always something to be done.

For the integration of ipn, it could also be interesting to add for the admin part but also for the member part, a transaction history?

You see, I already give you some work for the next version :/

thanks for the new version, not integrated yet

Hi all and happy new year !

Did you have time to work on the new version of VL and on the notification for PayPal payment?

Thank

NB : For the token, I use my paypal account on several sites and I can't direct all the payments on a single site!
It is necessary to manage the ipn with a url specific to the top list
