    Recently, we had to switch from PayPal, and our new underwriter has their own Gateway through Red Fin (redfinnet.com). They have what the call an Authorize.net Emulator. Today they sent the following info.

    “In order to use the Authorize.Net emulator, the payment module for the solution you are using must be able to change the gateway URL.

    Sometimes this is a field that you can change within the front end of the module. If not, and you have the ability, you can go into the

    code of the payment module and change the gateway URL.

    If neither one of the above options are available to you, then unfortunately, the software package will not allow you to use the

    emulator.

    If you can, here are the specifications:

    – URL for the AN Emulator = https://payment.redfinnet.com/aim/transact.aspx

    Login/credentials (usually entered into the front end of the payment module):

    – API/Login ID = [Gateway Username]

    – Transaction Key = [Gateway Password]”

    Any idea how I can do this?

    Thanks!!!

    Open the “lib/gateway/Authorize.php” file and search for the following line:

    $this->gatewayUrl = 'https://secure.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll';

    You need to change that to the gateway URL provided to you by your payment gateway:

    $this->gatewayUrl = 'https://payment.redfinnet.com/aim/transact.aspx';

    Another user was using an Authorize.net emulator. More details on that here:

    I don’t want to sound too dumb here, but where do I find lib/gateway/authorize.php?

    I am looking in FTP and in the WP dashboard

    You will find it inside the WP eStore plugins’s directory:

    ..../wp_content/plugins/wp-cart-for-digital-products/lib/gateway

    Thanks,

    The RedFin…. >>AHEM<< “tech support” person wrote me the following after I told him the process didn’t work.

    “Unfortunately, it seems that the admin panel and the module are not communicating properly. Although you are entering your information, the payment module is not reading it correctly, and therefore sending the Payment Gateway a blank field.

    Please consult with the modules programmers for assistance.”

    Do you have any idea why this might not be working.

    LOL.. this is where my expertise runs out… I don’t have any knowledge about this “RedFin” gateway. All I know is that the plugin submits the data according to Authorize.net’s guidelines and it works fine with them (so there is no issue with how it submits the data). If this gateway doesn’t accept those data then how is it authorize.net emulator?

    After all this time of fighting with them, they finally said “Maybe you should just use Authorize.net.” AAARRRRGGGHHHHHH!!!

    Anyway, they had me modify the /lib/gateway so that the GatewayURL went to them, but now I don’t know what the Authorize.net URL was….

    // Some default values of the class

    $this->gatewayUrl = ‘https://payment.redfinnet.com/aim/transact.aspx&#8217;;

    $this->ipnLogFile = ‘authorize.ipn_results.log’;

    // Populate $fields array with a few default

    $this->addField(‘x_Version’, ‘3.1’);

    $this->addField(‘x_Show_Form’, ‘PAYMENT_FORM’);

    $this->addField(‘x_Relay_Response’, ‘TRUE’);

    The original value of the Authorize.net checkout is the following:

    https://secure.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll

    If you have made modifications and now want to go back to the original, you should just download a new build of the plugin from here:
