9 years ago You know what, I am sorry. I got it figured out. I was working all night on this and sometimes just need to take a walk. It was because IPN is solely for posting the notification that a payment has been made. I needed to use paypal's API. Thanks anyhow
Hello, I am very experienced using PHP and paypal IPNs. I created an IPN which the paypal simulator works fine with. Also, if I check out using paypal's cart (not minicart) it works fine. However when I implement mini cart the IPN only works half way. Here is how it works. It is a ticketing program. If someone purchases 2 adults and 2 child tickets (the item_names are adult/child) the IPN determines the item_name and generates either a child or adult ticket. I think the problem is Paypal allows you to create item name fields with the name item_name, item_name1, item_name2, and so forth. However whenever I attempt to do this with minicart obviously it is not supported. My live site went up Friday and I need assistance ASAP to get my ticketing working. Any help is greatly appreciated!
