Hi @jeff41 ,
As specified earlier, the instructions given in the plugin has been tested and works properly. We do understand that it takes time to configure paypal sandbox and we have noticed that paypal sandbox sometimes do not function in proper way which we have no clue. We would highly recommend to contact paypal for any queries pertaining to paypal.
We would also like to tell you that if you are looking for other payment gateway then we do have a WooCommerce based auction plugin where it will let you use different payment methods that you configure inside WooCommerce as an option to pay for bid or for “buy now”. Here is its simple workflow:
1. Admin creates an auction product.
2. User registers. And User then places a bid.
3. When the auction expires, then the plugin sends an email to the winner with “Pay Now” link. User clicks “Pay Now” and the product is added to his checkout page where he needs to enter his billing details, make the payment and place an order.
4. Order is created and admin has all the information of the user in that order and he can go to WP Admin > WooCommerce > Orders to see that order.
Regards,
Nitesh
