Well, you already have the others working with PayPal, so leave the auto-return URL already there, you can set s2Member one with the button code using

Code:

And add the IPN URL like this:

Code:

I hope that helps.

Thanks, I had read that link already and it's saying "s2Member dynamically sets the Auto-Return URL for each transaction." but i don't know that's true for my other sites (ejunkie, paypal direct, etc). thus my concern

Re: s2 member paypal integration one pp acct w/ multi websit

I'm new, and honestly a bit fuzzy after hours of video (great videos btw) and creating and integration.

But I'm a bit confused and concerned. I have several websites with items that sell through paypal buton codes(directly) and others through ejunkie and paypal button codes.

i plan to build several s2member blogs and starting today with # 1.

If I put the IPN pin and api for this new site i'm creating with s2member at paypal - will i mess up the items i'm selling through ejunkie etc on my other sites?

Can I just leave the paypal information fields in s2member blank (and not mess with the pin/api/ipn in paypal at all - and create buttons on paypal that will work with my new s2member blog pages? . thanks!

Cristian -- here are my advanced variables on my PP button
custom=www.successfulflyfishing.com
item_number=Item number: sp:729:72
notify_url=http://www.successfulflyfishing.com/?s2member_notify_paypal=1

I would think these should work to allow access to page 729 after purchase is completed. The Item number structure was copied from an S2 button that I made for a single product access to page 729.

Thanks Cristian -- I read the info on the PP generated buttons and added the custom and notify url in the advanced section. What I am trying to do is sell my eBook + physical bonuses + download bonuses. I have a page set up for the purchased access return.

I think the only thing I need to add to the advanced variables is the item:sp:page no.:hours to keep link open.

Would this be correct so that the buyer gets access to the protected page to download their ebook and bonuses and I get the info I need to mail the physical bonus to them?

It sounds like it could work.

Since you mention using buttons generated at PayPal, read this thread viewtopic.php?f=36&t=309 to be sure you add everything it s2Member needs it to have.

Cristian - here is what I have done.

I made a download post that applies to the book the way I want to sell it directly from the site. Protected the post with S2 for post access -- no member required.

I have established a separate PP account for my ebook. I have all the IPN and Data return values set the way S2 wants them. I have Autoreturn on with a default page on my site and a cancellation page on my site.

I made a button using the PP generator with a drop down list and the advanced options return page url set to the S2 url requirement from the S2 generated button. This return should override the default page if I understand how PP stuff works from reading the S2 helps. Once the transaction initiated by this button is completed I would assume that PP would follow the instructions attached to the button setup. And send out a return to the s2 url per the generated button info.

Please tell me why this will not work or will work to trigger S2 to send the purchaser to the protected post.

Thanks.

It'd depend on the selection. If you're just changing one field, like the price, it's simpler because you can just use a drop-down list for that value, but if the selection changes several fields, then you'll have to use AJAX to update the rest of the form based on that choice. Or have several different buttons, like you say.

Cristian -- Thank you for the prompt response. I did read thru the thread including what PP said about the IPN static and dynamic properties. I will turn it on and see then see about making a button with s2member. My std button I already made has a drop down with about 7 selections.

Can S2 member do a drop down selection or will I have to make a separate button for each selection?

s2 member paypal integration one pp acct w/ multi websites

2011-05-12T10:50:33-05:00

Situation:
I have an ebook account successfulflyfishing.com running s2member. My main pp account is for fly-fishing-colorado.com. On fly fishing colorado I am running a shopping cart wp theme which is integrated with my main pp account under fly fishing colorado.

On successfulflyfishing.com, the level 0 product is a try before you buy ebook managed by a system outside s2member or paypal. I have this working ok but may try your pp solution of a 0 button I read today.

ISSUE:
Right now I have a std Buy Now button created with PP on my order page. But would prefer using level 1 and s2member. My problem is how to complete the PP set up so it does not interfer with my fly fishing colorado shopping cart setup which uses paypal

I would like to use level 1 to sell an upgraded ebook with different bonuses than the level 0 product. I have been going thru the s2member PP process and am at the IPN step.

My Question: the successfulflyfishing.com s2member pp ipn integration requests ipn be turned on. I have not been using ipn as my shopping cart setup does not require it on to function. If I turn on IPN for my ebook site and s2member will it interfere with my shopping cart which is shopperpress. My thinking is if IPN is on, any shoppng cart order will also trigger the IPN and send visitors over to successfulflyfishing.com which would be very confusing.

Will s2member paypal function without IPN being turned on. I would like to make my level one an upgraded book purchase that can be downloaded from the level one member page. If I need IPN on, how do you suggest I make this work.

Unfortunately PayPal has told me I can have only one PP account per bank account which is really stupid. If anyone has setup multiple PP accounts all feeding the same bank account, please let reply here.

Thoughts from Jason would also be appreciated.
