Echeck settings

Hi,

I have been trying to figure out where and how to set the echecks to report to either the customer or us.

Before upgrading to 1.3.8a PayPal used to send back notification to the cart and the status did not change which was fine. Now PayPal notifies the cart and the status changes but we (admin) nor the customer is notified.

Is there a way to set this so that either the customer or admin is notified of the status change so the customer knows when their downloads are available?

Thanks

Rick

If you're not receiving emails from PayPal about transaction status changes, you'll need to talk to PayPal tech support about that not working.

Or am I not reading your post correctly?

We are receiving the email from PayPal but the cart is changing the status to processing and we want it to stay as pending and change it ourself.

Thanks

Interesting twist. It used to be that people begged for orders to be auto-activated, not held.

Anyway, you can stop them from being updated by editing your ipn_main_handler.php and adding two new lines, as shown:

Code:

    case 'echeck-cleared':
      //echeck-cleared
      $new_status = MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_ORDER_STATUS_ID;
      $new_status = 1;
    break;
    case ($txn_type=='express-checkout-cleared' || substr($txn_type,0,8) == 'cleared-'):
      //express-checkout-cleared
      $new_status = ($isECtransaction && defined('MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPALWPP_ORDER_STATUS_ID') ? MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPALWPP_ORDER_STATUS_ID : MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_ORDER_STATUS_ID);
      if ((int)$new_status == 0) $new_status = 2;
      $new_status = 1;
    break;
