-- url of the page with the problem -- : www.m2820.com
-- HikaShop version -- : 2.4.0
-- Joomla version -- : 2.5.20

I received the following email and wanted to know if this will affect the HikaShop PayPal plugin. PayPal will no longer be using 4 urls, used for payments, so I wanted to make sure HikaShop was not using them. I looked in my setup and could not find anywhere that referenced these urls, but wanted to make sure the plugin didn't either. If I need to make changes, please indicate how and where I need to do this.

Here is the email from PayPal:

Payflow integration changes.

We want to let you know about upcoming changes that may impact your Payflow integration.

Because these changes are technical in nature, we advise that you consult with your partner, website vendor, or individuals responsible for your Payflow integration. They will be able to identify what, if any, changes are needed. Please forward the information below to your technical contact for evaluation. We’re here to help your technical contact to ensure you continue to process payments through your current integration with us.

The following Payflow URLs are scheduled to be deprecated on August 3, 2015:

  • payflowpro.verisign.com
  • cr-payflow.verisign.com
  • payflow.verisign.com
  • payments.verisign.com

If you’re currently integrated with one of these URLs, you’ll need to update your integration to the corresponding paypal.com URL. Not doing so may impact your ability to accept and process payments. Following are the URLs that need to be replaced, along with the correct endpoint that needs to be used:

Existing URL ---> URL to move to
payflowpro.verisign.com ---> payflowpro.paypal.com
cr-payflow.verisign.com ---> cr.cybercash.com
payflow.verisign.com ---> payflowpro.paypal.com (include USER, VENDOR, PARTNER, and PWD parameters in all API requests)
payments.verisign.com ---> payflowlink.paypal.com

Next steps
We’re planning maintenance that will involve shutting down the URLs for specific periods of time to assist merchants with identifying whether they need to make changes to their integration. Please watch the alert section in the PayPal Manager for any updates, as well as the URL outage schedule.

For instructions on modifying your integration to conform to these changes, as well as the planned outage schedule, we’ve set up a microsite with detailed information. Any changes to the schedule will be updated on the microsite.

If you have any questions, please contact our Merchant Technical Services team for support.

We appreciate your patience as we continue to improve our services. Thank you for your understanding.

Keep up-to-date with the latest technical information on our new portal www.PayPal-Notify.com . The portal will give you everything you need to know about planned site maintenances, unplanned events, and site changes. Just sign up using your PayPal, Google, Yahoo or Facebook account login details.

Hi,

Thank you for the information.
These URLs are not used by the HikaShop PayPal plugins and thus it doesn't concerns you (us).
