I have a problem with the instalation of paypal: 1.- notification about IPN What is that and how do I change to make paypal work 2.- something about primary e-mail What is a primary e-mail? I have 2 email adresses in my paypal acount and a different one created automaticaly by amember. Clarify me please What should I do? Thanks in advance
Hi, I believe primary e-mail is the primary (default) e-mail in your PayPal account, as you can set-up several e-mail accounts in PayPal to receive money, so you need to specify your primary one. Also, in case you haven't seen it there is a very clear step-by-step approach how to set-up PayPal with aMember: http://manual.amember.com/PayPal_Standart_Plugin_Configuration Hope that helps! David
Thankyou david. I have read the step-by-step and I understood everything but: 1.- At the end of the page When i click here ( Optionally enter IPN URL at step 6 of PayPal account configuration: http://www.mysite.com/members/plugins/payment/paypal_r/ipn.php ) I receive this notification (paypal_r ERROR: IPN validation error: The service Paypal indicates that this is not a valid transaction IPN: [INVALID] <br /> I dont know what that means.....Must I care about that? 2.- I assume, that the error must be related to the fact that my primary e-mail on paypal does not match the email in amember settings, which bytheway I can not change. Can you or anybody else tell me how to do it.??? In Amember admin accounts there is an e-mail automatically created by amember. And I can not change it Please help.
I seem to remember that I skipped this step. As it says in the documentation, see the note below regarding this URL. See point 3 under 'Important Notes'.
