    Thank you for this great plugin! I simply don’t know where to go with this problem and hope that you can help me get things moving in the right direction. The transactions between the plugin and PayPal seem to be working perfectly with just one hitch… we never get notified that there has been a sale. I understand that the functionality is not yet available from the plugin side but we are not getting notifications from PayPal either (even though a payment has been successfully processed). We have two email addresses that we use in PayPal. There is the main email address which was used to create the account and then we have a separate one which belongs to our accounting professional. We set up PayPal so that the email for the accounting professional is the primary email albeit not the same as the account email. Notifications for purchases using the plugin are not being sent to the accounting professional, they are being sent to the account email. Any thoughts on how to correct the problem? Thanks in advance for any insight.

    Hi cbrendlinger, have you being in contact with PayPal in regards to your e-mail problem?

    They were less than helpful. But I just found a solution which I think will work for us until you all add the email to seller functionality. Instead of using the account email address on the plugin side (settings), I used the accounting professional’s email address. It still hooks in to the correct account and then generates the appropriate payment notification to the accounting email address. When the functionality is in place for the plugin to generate an email to the seller, we will be able to go back to business as normal.

    This feature (to setup sale notification for admin) has been added in the new version.

    Cheers
