PayPal Details

Permalink Browser Info Environment
Is there a way to pass some information - like the product name(s) and options - to PayPal so that when we receive the payment confirmation email we know exactly what was purchased?

Barring that, can Advanced Forms send the admin an email when the payment is successfully processed containing that information?

Thanks

Anybody? I only seem to get an email from Paypal with the total paid and the payer's name. But I have no idea what product they bought...

Thanks

Is this product still supported? There are a lot of unanswered questions here. Developer, I'd like to know about this too.

Hey, sorry about that. It's been a crazy past few weeks (I was out of the country for part of it). That's not an excuse though :)

AF wasn't really intended to be much of an e-commerce solution as much as just a way to integrate payments into a form. As a result, the Paypal integration is a little bit limited, but you could accomplish what you are trying to do with a little bit of customization.

How to code this all depends on your product names and how you have them organized. If you wanted to give me some info about this, I'd be glad to give a little more direction.

Hello.

I would really like to be able to transfer and display the product name to Paypal.

Looking at the PayPal's own Buttons generator, I see that they appear to generate a hidden field called on0 for the description and a field called os0 for the value.
Then on0/os0 then increment to on1/os1 for the next field etc...

I have tried naming my fields in the same way, but still am only able to see the count and total of the sellable item field in the PayPal payment page. (We only have one product).

Is there a simple formula for the field naming please?

I'd love to have the same functionality. I have a simple setup - 2 products, each allowing up to 10 items to be purchased. Can the name of the product and the number purchased be sent to PayPal?
