Paypal IPN is returned in browser and not updated in DB

    Hi,

    I have the Pro version of CP Contact Form. I have IPN configured with my production Paypal account and the URL is just the TLD of my website since it doesn’t matter. When the user completes the purchase, PayPal sends the IPN as follows:

    https://website.com/thank-you/<IPN info which starts with a ?>

    Of course, this means that page won’t load and the purchase doesn’t get updated in the CP Contact Form tables as Paid. Also, the “thank-you” is what I configured as the Thank You page within the settings for this contact form

    Last, I’m testing this with the most recent version of the plugin which I downloaded directly from the email I requested today at the dwbooster.com website, so I’m certainly using the latest WP and Plugin.

    Please help.

    Hi,

    Please open a ticket at https://wordpress.dwbooster.com/support and indicate the address of the page that contains the form to check it in detail.

    Into the PayPal account there is an area that contains logs of the IPS calls, please check those logs also to see if there is some error in the IPN response.

    Thank you!

    I also had this issue, and discovered that the IPN is using HTTP:// as the returned protocol, this doesn’t work if your website is running HTTPS:// I actually did a slight adjustment to one of the files where it was calling on HTTP:// and added HTTPS:// after this I tested it, and bingo it worked without an issue.

    Cheers, Steven

    Developers you might want to put an option in the configuration settings are you using HTTP or HTTPS protocol, this way users can check the mechanism.

    Hi,

    We have just published an update to automatically detect if the page is being loaded over SSL and in that case the IPN address is generated pointing to the https://.. location.

    Thank yo for your feedback!
