Paypal Return URL

Hi Everybody,

I have a little problem with the returning from paypal. When I come back, it puts me on the homepage and not on the after_end. I´m sure, that out fault. Any ideas?

Thx Nicolas

nop....that doesn´t work. Can I send you a privat message with the URL of our dev-plattform?
Cheers

Sorry to ressurect an old thread, but I am having the same problem.

I have my paypal plugin cancel url and return url set empty. When completing a payment through paypal sandbox, I am redirect to the homepage with the usual paypal parameteurs :
(I removed some pers. information)
dev.myUrl.com/index.php?mc_gross=25.00&i...n_link=XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Unless HikaShop has a Joomla system plugin (which I did not found), there is surely missing something like : option=com_hikashop&view=checkout&layout=after_end

Would I need to add it manually?

I'm still debugging this, and I managed to debug the variable that is sent to paypal :

(
[cmd] => _ext-enter
[redirect_cmd] => _cart
[upload] => 1
[business] => XXXXX
[receiver_email] => XXXX
[invoice] => 22
[currency_code] => CAD
[return] => http://dev.myUrl.com?option=com_hikashop&view=checkout&layout=after_end
[notify_url] => dev.myUrl.com/index.php?option=com_hikas...pl=component&lang=fr
[cancel_return] => dev.myUrl.com/index.php?option=com_hikas...el_order&order_id=22
[undefined_quantity] => 0
[test_ipn] => 1
[no_shipping] => 1
[no_note] => 1
[charset] => utf-8
[address_override] => 1
[first_name] => Super
[last_name] => User
[address1] => xxx
[address2] =>
[zip] => xxx
[city] => xxx
[state] =>
[country] => CA
=> xxx [night_phone_b] => xxx [cpp_header_image] => xxx [item_name_1] => Sunglasses [item_number_1] => Sunglasses [amount_1] => 85 [quantity_1] => 1 [item_name_2] => Livraison [amount_2] => 10 [quantity_2] => 1 ) I can indeed see there is a return value which seems OK, confirmed by this page : https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/e_howto_html_Appx_websitestandard_htmlvariables Any ideas on this?[email] => xxx
[night_phone_b] => xxx
[cpp_header_image] => xxx
[item_name_1] => Sunglasses
[item_number_1] => Sunglasses
[amount_1] => 85
[quantity_1] => 1
[item_name_2] => Livraison
[amount_2] => 10
[quantity_2] => 1
)

I can indeed see there is a return value which seems OK, confirmed by this page :
cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-c...andard_htmlvariables


Any ideas on this?

Hi...

this is easy. The problem is just the length of the return request string. Return it to a redirect_paypal_success.php file.....

an put this in

<?php
header('Location:http://www.yourdomain.com/index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=checkout&task=after_end');
?>

Cheers

Is this documented somewhere in the paypal API? I couldn't locate that informaiton.

I know your solution would work, but this is not really what I'm looking for. This is a quick "fix", but operates outside the "CMS" world.

According to the Paypal doc, the paypal return variable can be up to 1 024 characteurs. Mine is only 78...

It now works correctly for me. Here is what I did :

In my seller's sandbox, I enabled Auto Return for Website Payments under Profile -> Website Payment Preferences.

I then entered a non-valid url just so I can make some tests.

Also, simply for security issues, I added the rm value to the paypal variables that are being sent ("rm" => "2" in plugins/hikashoppayment/paypal/paypal.php line 93).

Now, whenever I pay, I'm then automatically redirected to the after_end page. Woot!

The Return URL specified in your PayPal Account is good for all transactions however, you can override this by using the "return" variable in your individual item button code and direct the buyer to a different URL.

Hi all. Another question in this topic: After returning from Paypal, user gets the message that the transaction was successfull, but that message is in error message style and OI dont like that. Is there a way to style that particular message with css or redirect user to classic after_end message as it is on other payment methods?

Thank you in advance.
