problem with WP eMember + WP Affiliate plugin

[FrankAlm]

i have both WP eMember and WP Affiliate plugins

the problem i have is:

if i include the code into the paypal button generator :

notify_url=http://www.videos-erstellen.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-eMember/ipn/eMember_handle_paypal_ipn.php

custom=subsc_ref=2

the paypalbutton works without any problems

but if i include the phpcode into the site (buttoncode) from WP Affiliate plugin:

<input name=”notify_url” type=”hidden” value=”http://www.videos-erstellen.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-affiliate-platform/api/ipn_handler.php&#8221; />

<input name=”custom” type=”hidden” value=”<?php echo $_COOKIE; ?>” />

the affiliate plugin works but the code from the paypal button dosn´t work anymore (php execution is installed!).

What can i do?

Let me first get a good understanding of your setup.

So you have two PayPal buttons.. one for eMember payment and one for affiliate?

or do you have one button that you are trying to hook for both eMember and the affiliate?

Can you please post a URL to the page containing the buttons?

I have ONE Paypalbutton for both eMember and the affiliate

The buttoncode into the website is:

*************************CODE**************************************

<form action=”https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr&#8221; method=”post”>

<input type=”hidden” name=”cmd” value=”_s-xclick”>

<input type=”hidden” name=”hosted_button_id” value=”THKESBGHAZL9A”>

<input type=”image” src=”https://www.paypal.com/de_DE/DE/i/btn/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif&#8221; border=”0″ name=”submit” alt=”Jetzt einfach, schnell und sicher online bezahlen – mit PayPal.”>

Thank you for the details. I can now see the issue. Basically you have one button but you need to send two IPNs (instant payment notifications) to two different script. There are a few ways to get around this but here is the easiest one.

Get rid of the button you created for the affiliate plugin. Just work with the eMember button because this is the button visitors will use to pay for the membership and you want to award commission if some of those visitors were sent by an affiliate.

You already have the eMember’s button working now all you need to do is hook it up with the affiliate plugin so commission can be awarded too. Please use option 1 from this page to integrate the PayPal button with the affiliate plugin:

Direct/Plain/Hosted PayPal Button and Affiliate Plugin Integration

Option 1 doesn’t require you to send the IPN to a script or add a cookie value. So you don’t have to do anything special to the button that you created for the eMember plugin. Simply specify the “Return URL” (which you probably already have done) to be a page on your site and enable PDT. The documentation I referred to should have the details.

If you don’t see the new settings in the affiliate plugin then please get a new build of the affiliate plugin from this page:
