Clarify Documentation for PayPal
-
Hi, after hours of research, I finally discovered this post on how to properly configure PayPal Standard with multiple emails:
My request is to update the official documentation at https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/paypal-standard/#paypal-ipn-url to clarify the primary PayPal email must be used as the “Receiver” email.
Currently it only says “8/ Enter an email address for Receiver Mail if this address is different than the PayPal email address you entered above in step 4.”.
Obviously that is unhelpful as most users are not going to know what a Receiver email is and why it might be different.
The support reply is much more clear but could be further improved for the documentation: “The Receiver email in WooCommerce > Settings > Payments > PayPal will need to be the Primary email listed on that page. The PayPal email can be any of the rest of the emails from the page at PayPal.”
Elsewhere on the web and PayPal’s own documentation there is contradicting information that says any PayPal email may be used anywhere.
The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]
