Does s2Member Pro still work with a standard PayPal account?

On a side not, you can apply for PayPal Express Checkout (it's free) with a standard business PayPal account; then you will be able to use the PayPal Forms with s2Member Pro.

Code: Select all

accept_via_paypal="paypal,visa,mastercard,amex,discover,maestro,solo"

Code: Select all

---- Central IPN Processing: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With PayPal® Pro integration you absolutely MUST set an IPN URL inside your PayPal® account.
PayPal® Pro integration does NOT allow the IPN location to be overridden on a per-transaction basis.

So ... if you're using a single PayPal® Pro account for multiple cross-domain installations,
and you need to receive IPN notifications for each of your domains; you'll want to create
a central IPN processing script that scans variables in each IPN response,
forking itself out to each of your individual domains.

In rare cases when this is necessary, you'll find two variables in all IPN responses for s2Member.
The originating domain name will always be included somewhere within, either:
`custom` and/or `rp_invoice_id`; depending on the type of transaction.

These variables can be used to test incoming IPNs, and fork to the proper installation.

---- Instructions: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Set the IPN URL ( in your PayPal® account ) to the location of this script on your server.
    This central processor forks IPNs out to a particular installation of s2Member ( on a particular domain ).

2. Now, here's where the magic happens ( PLEASE CHANGE: www.site1.com, www.site2.com. ).
