    There was an issue due to too low mysql version
  • Not enough adjustments is done on a subscribe button. Try to use exactly the same template as for buy now button so that paypal will treat the button as buy now.

  • FAQ
    paypal sends ipn posts to the blog and everything what comes from paypal gets registered in there.
    Yes csv or txt export of the data could be a good thing.
  • FAQ
    Content will be hidden if you will have no price for it – no 0, but compleately empty – try to clear it using clear button next to post price. this is my bug I should check if its 0 or empty before sending it to paypal. I will put this to be fixed for next version.
  • Features
    If plugin is activated it ads metatag into header and tells the google to index the content but prevents it from caching. You can check sites header and metatags to understand how it works.
    Plugin is also able to detect googlebot and if googlebot comes to the site content is exposed to it as if it was user who purchased the content. As google is not allowed to cache the sites contetn it will never show the content under cached version :) So you blog can still be indexed by google your users can find it by keywords residing in a hidden area and they still has to pay for it …
  • Are PayPal 1.7.7 version was released
    try to click the button “restore defaults” or similar (I do not recall the label of the button) under templates. It should be ok.
  • Are PayPal 1.7.7 version was released
    Check generated html for buttons maybe you will notice something unusual. Try to reset button templates if so. Try to identify if this is not due to your paypal account configuration.

  1. I am seeing an issue with the blog subscription side … the one off’s works nicely.

    Paypal is sending an subscr_eot at time of sign up when you set the subscription to not recur and this is causing the subscription to end at sign up.

    Sounds like something has changed with the paypal workflow?

  3. NP… If you are using the BLOG price feature and setup a 7 day subscription, but want the subscription to not automatically recur you need to make a small adjustment to the subscription button code… change to .

    The hope is the user get access for 7days and then the subscription just expires and the user would need to sign up again if they want.

    What happens is on sign up and payment with PayPal, PayPal send 3 IPN….subscr_signup, subscr_payment and subscr_eot. The EOT ( end of term) causes the subscription to expire on the same day they signed up, rather then after 7days.
