Help! I am new to all this. I just installed and set up WP estore. I have two digital products that I am trying to sell. While testing my own products (buying them from another paypal account) I have noticed that not download link or thank you email is sent to the customer. How do I fix this?
December 12, 2010 at 1:01 am #27310wzpModeratorWP eStore -> Settings -> General Settings -> Email Settings -> Send Emails to Buyer After Purchase -> Checked
If that does not work, try this additional step…
WP eStore -> Settings -> General Settings -> Email Settings -> Use WordPress Mailing System -> Opposite of whatever it is now.
December 12, 2010 at 2:10 am #27311SplurgeiMemberThank you for your reply. I have tried both of these options. The only email the customer receives so far is the one from paypal. Still no download link, no thank you for your purchase email.
December 12, 2010 at 3:16 am #27312wzpModeratorDoes your WordPress site send you any other email messages? For example, if a new user registers does the new user get a WP generated password message, or do you receive the new user registration message?
December 12, 2010 at 6:22 pm #27313AndyC01MemberHi. I am experiencing similar problems. I have tried the above options to no avail. The customer is receiving the e-mail from PayPal. The seller is receiving an e-mail from the site with notification of the sale and a copy of the e-mail the customer should receive.
The customer however is not receiving the ‘Thank you for your purchase’ e-mail from the site.
December 12, 2010 at 8:16 pm #27314wzpModerator@AndyC01, In your case, does the “Buyer Email Body” contain the “{product_details}” tag? Without that tag, the links will not be included in the email. The email being sent from the site will then contain the links.

This post explains how to enable debug:

December 13, 2010 at 7:35 pm #27316AndyC01MemberHi wzp and admin007 thanks for the tips. I ran the debug tests and discovered the problem. I have been using my PayPal Sandbox account for payment tests. In doing so the WordPress site was sending the ‘Product Download’ e-mail to an e-mail address which only exists inside the Sandbox test account.
I created an identical e-mail address and linked it to the WordPress site and ran another test. Everything is working perfectly.
Thanks again.
