Currency on direct payment. #21

I just installed your plugin and i can not figure out whats going wrong. I am trying to make use of the "doDirectPayment"-method you implemented. I pass DKK as an argument for currency since it is the code for Danish Kroner. I get no errors and the payment goes through but on my sandbox account it seems to default to GBP no matter what currency i pass.

1) Go to app/Plugin/Paypal/Lib/paypal.php 2) Go to public function formatDoDirectPaymentNvps 3) Go to $nvps = array('CURRENCYCODE' => 'USD',), find this line change it to 'CURRENCYCODE' => $payment['yourfieldname'], i.e if you are passing field name currency_code changi yourfieldname to currency_code or if you will be using DKK for all payment simply change it to USD to DKK

Thanks for answering so quickly! It seems that DKK is not a supported currency. When i change it to USD it goes through as a valid payment. But i get the error "This transaction cannot be processed due to an unsupported currency." when i change it to DKK. I believe that this has nothing to do with your plugin but rather a problem in the paypal API?.

I found the problem, it seems that if your pro account is bounded to the US you cannot use DKK as a currency for direct payment. I created a new sandbox account and placed it in the UK. The transactions now work. Thank you so much for responding so quickly. Im looking forward to utilizing your plugin. Great work!
