Amin – Thank you for pointing out the error in my paypal button. I do apologize for the inconvenience.

I changed the syntax and it is working now.

We are on a time crunch and I had to get this up and running and therefore I was panicking.

But now that its working I am calm now – Whew!

Thanks a million!

GK!

Amin – I contacted Paypal regarding the problem that I am having with the Registration Link not being sent from eMember and the Support Tech asked me to change the “custom” IPN variable from “custom-subsc_ref=4” TO “custom=4” and run the transaction.

I ran the transaction while we were on the phone and checked the ipn.log.

The log still does not have the eMember Membership level id on the line:

SUCCESS :Memship payment paid for membership level ID:

However when the Support Tech checked the IPN Message on the paypal site it passed the “Scustom=4” variable to the ipn.

I have included the entire content of the email I received from him below:

Thank you for contacting PayPal today. I enjoyed assisting you and I hope you found our conversation to be helpful. As a reminder, the variable that was being used for the subscription ID was not a valid IPN variable. We walked through using “custom” to pass the value instead.

Here is a list of the valid IPN variables. Your developer will need to update the PHP script to handle the “custom” variable as well. Also, below is a copy of the IPN post made after you adjusted your button code.

Could you please take a look at this and ell me where the problem might be.

I also want to mention that when the transaction is tested in Sandbox mode, it works fine. But in live mode it does not send the email for the registration link.

I would really appreciate if you can help us get this plugin up and running.

Thanks in advance,

GK!

Amin – I have specified the Membership level ID in the paypal button as follows:

notify_url=http://pahhha.org/wp/wp-content/plugins/wp-eMember/ipn/eMember_handle_paypal_ipn.php

custom-subsc_ref=4

But it still does not send out the registration link.

And the pin.log still reads as follows:

Help – Please – I have verified the setting over and over again, and in the process tested more than 10 transactions and still can’t get it to work. Please check it out and let me know what I am missing.

Thanks in advance,

Gk!

Just to note – I noticed the second last line (Membership level ID) is blank.

Could you please take a look and see where the problem is.

Thanks in advance,

GK!

I still have a problem with the registration link sent out from eMember after the transaction is completed.

The buyer gets an email Receipt from Paypal, but no Registration link is being sent.

Could you please help figure out why the registration email is not being sent.

Thanks

[gken8]

I am using a paypal button without eStore for eMember.

Thanks!
