VicToMeyeZR Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 http://wiki.whmcs.com/PayPal Just in case you don't want to look for it, you leave it BLANK! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakeDiver Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 How does this work for existing clients on existing subscriptions? This IPN needs to be there otherwise the client will have to recreate their subscription. Thanks, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickendippers Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Yes, they will need to re-create their subscriptions. If you create a ticket they can provide you with a redirect script so your customers don't need to re-create. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoneypointe Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Leaving it blank does not do the trick. Am I missing anything? I get the following error message: "You must enter a properly formatted URL into the Notification URL field in order to activate Instant Payment Notification." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeds Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Note that PayPal very recently changed this. Less than 2 weeks ago I set my IPN by leaving the url blank. You cannot do that now. See the thread at: http://forum.whmcs.com/showthread.php?t=19391 Posted in that thread: Whmcs submittes the notify URL as part of the payment submission process to whmcs. Therefore paypal will return to that notify, this _should_ override the one that is in the paypal configuration. If you follow the instructions in the wiki you should have no issues. I have configured my paypal like that and all my transactions work file. Just check that you have your WHMCS url settings correct in your configuration. I don't know if that works - as I don't need to mess around with my IPN settings, as far as I know. : 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 I have not entered the IPN. There are 2 types of IPN. The ipn that is on the paypal site will send ANY payment that you get to your whmcs scripts. Eg if i was to paypal you some money to paypal@youraddress.com it would notify you. However using the whmcs form it will tell paypal to notify your whmcs of the completion of that payment that is being made. This is enough to be able to verify the success/failure of the whmcs payment/transaction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is enough to be able to verify the success/failure of the whmcs payment/transaction. This is exactly what we are looking to do. Were you able to get the old subscriptions to match up with incoming IPN data when manually entered? I've been testing it and so far I haven't been able to get WHMCS to show any of the day-to-day transactions that came from anyone other then those who signed up directly through the whmcs system. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
