PayPal confirmation page doesn't automatically redirect to Photobucket #46

When paying in the Photobucket Plus upgrade flow, we automatically redirect users from Paypal to our Plus confirmation page.

In the Print.IO paypal flow, I get a screen that has a button the user has to click that says "Go back to the site you came from."

I think if we could get this redirect to happen automatically, our revenue numbers in Google Analytics would be a lot closer to the numbers in the admin panel dashboard.

@micahasmith - Is this a cross domain issue, or something you think we can fix?

@micahasmith @mrgreenfur Hey Ben, Micah. Checking in on this one - do you anticipate this update coming anytime soon?

Yeah I think we can get it out soon, late this week or next

It seems that this needs to be enabled in your paypal account. It's called 'Auto Return' feature and some instructions are here: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/mer/express_return_summary-outside
