eMember – after paypal login, not taken to payment page

[Elimiz]

I have setup eMember on my website and are using PayPal sandbox accounts for testing purposes.

I have added a subscription button and defined the paypal email address to my sandbox seller account (xxxxxxxxxx-facilitator@gmail.com).

now when i click on the subscribe button, login with my sandbox buyer account i get to the buyer sandbox paypal dashboard instead of getting to the paypal payment page.

i have also tried the second method of creating the button in paypal and Specifying the “Advanced Variables” Code in the PayPal button.

than added that paypal button code as well.

When i click the subscribe paypal button and login with my sandbox buyer account i get to the buyer sandbox paypal dashboard instead of getting to the paypal payment page (same as the above).

What am i doing wrong?

All email addresses in the PayPal sandbox are simulated. No actual emails will ever be delivered to anyone.

Unless you have a “really good reason,” it is strongly suggested that you simply do your testing using a live PayPal account; and a very low cost $0.01 product or subscription.

Hi

Thank for your reply.

Well, i didn’t expected that any email will be sent during the sandbox simulation.

But i do expect to follow a simulation of a full payment process via paypal sandbox account, but as i said, when clicking the subscribe button and login via buyer account, i’m been navigating to paypal sandbox dashboard, and not to the standard paypal payment process when i need to hit “pay” button.

Can you help on that?

PayPal sandbox environment is likely down (that has nothing to do with our plugin). PayPal applies all kinds of updates to their sandbox environment so it is really meant to be used by developers.

It is better to create a payment button in the plugin for $1 then test a transaction using that. Read the following post (checklist # and it will explain why that is better:
