After months of finding no help, I finally gave up and went with another WP cart package… and have no troubles.. although I did learn one thing to check.. somewhere in PayPal is a return URL that may need to be set… I dont remember the specifics but after a successful transaction it will return the data to a specified URL on your server… take a look at that. The new cart package documented it as a possible requirement…on my mobile so can’t look it up at the moment.

I do have the field for New Status set to “Completed”. When I check the box for using the paypal dev/sandbox (and change the email address) it works flawlessly all orders return a completed and the downloads etc work as expected. Uncheck the sandbox and change the email to her real account and it comes back Pending. However the payment is collected and moved to her account.

Bump… Any thoughts????

I hate replying to my own post but

A little more digging around in the database, in the wp_tcp_orders table I see that there is no transaction_id for the orders that came back Pending instead of Completed (For the REAL Paypal transactions, the sandbox ones all have a transaction_id, The comment_internal field is complete for the sandbox, but empty for the REAL PayPal, so now I know where the IPN data is stored.

Should this logging not be enabled for PROD?
