-- HikaShop version -- : 5.1.3
-- Joomla version -- : 5.2.4
-- PHP version -- : 8.3.16
-- Error-message(debug-mod must be tuned on) -- : No error message on page as it occurs later in processing

After a purchase via PayPal Hikashop sends an email with subject line:
Paypal payment notification refused: IP not valid for the order XXXXX
The body of the email is:
A Paypal notification was refused because the IP 173.0.81.140 is not in the list of valid IPs :
146.75.45.*
173.0.81.*
173.0.93.*
173.0.82.*
173.0.81.140

The problem is that the IP used by PayPal IS in the range of valid IPs.
I've followed the advice in www.hikashop.com/index.php?option=com_up...ment-paypal-error#ip trying to address this for earlier purchases and it doesn't appear to work..
What is the way to resolve this?

Hi,

Edit the PayPal payment method settings via the menu System>Payment methods and empty the IP setting.
That will prevent any issue with IP address checks.
