Inject Variable data to Paypal
Permalink Browser Info Environment
Hello, I have a client that is using the form on their site, and we have 2 issues. The first is that emails are not being sent out from the form, which I believe is an issue on my end that I am trying to fix. The second issue is that the person that manages the paypal needs the information listed on paypal. So to elaborate, I have a form with 4 options for payment, lets say each is a different tournament. When a person goes to the site and pays, I would like the description of the paid item be [form name] + [option chosen] + [Text Variable] within paypal. If I'm correct in my assumption, doing this shouldn't be horrendously difficult because when a person is kicked to paypal, the form generates a URL that has all the information on it, so the URL generated would just need to include these variables (not just form name). So maybe have an additional checkmark below "This field is Required" that says "Include in Paypal Description" and have that be output along with the form name. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

For the first issue, if you are also not receiving data into your Dashboard, please try the steps given in this forum post:http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/forms-with-paypal-payme...
For the second issue, because of the way our add-on handles form data, your proposed solution will not be easily implemented. My first suggestion would be have the "person who manages paypal" use a limited access concrete5 account to view the data on the site's Dashboard. If that's not possible, perhaps you could have a person with access to the Dashboard export to Excel Spreadsheet periodically, and simply email the file to your paypal manager. Let me know if you need more suggestions.
Thanks for your business.
