Does IPN transfer user password?
-
Hi,
I have a Paypal Subscribe button and I have set it up so that PayPal generates a username and password when a user does a subscription signup.
I would like to use the Paypal generated username and password to then create a WordPress user account using this username and password.
I can see this username and password on the PayPal site when a subscription is successful – ie PayPal shows the username and password on the “Your purchase was successful” screen.
Eg:
Below are your username and password for your subscription. Manage your subscription with your username and password.
Username:
pp-inanebelPassword:
fotce#dketIn WordPress > PayPal IPn > Transactions list, if I open a transaction, I can see the username and there is a field called password but it has a different value:
password: Sl3ne9wompf2Y
Could you please explain:
Is this the user password that Paypal generated?
Is it different because it is encrypted?
If it is encrypted, how would I decrypt it in order to be able to create a user account in WordPress using this password?
Thanks ahead of time.
It is an awesome plugin – thanks so much for creating and sharing it.
