Payment module problem alertpay

[dropbop]

Hi guys,

Just wanted to pop up a quick note about IPN for Alertpay.

I have noticed on a few forums that people are having trouble knowing what people have ordered from there website when using Alertpay.

There is no standard IPN page for Alertpay in Zencart, but there is a way around it.

Go to admin > Modules > Payment and click on PayPal IPN.

Copy and Paiste the IPN address on the right
(http://www.YOUR--STORE.com/ipn_main_handler.php)

Go to you Alertpay account www.alertpay.com

Go to the Business section in your account and click on IPN setup.
Enter the IPN address you copied from your admin.

Now any orders that have been made from your site will show in your admin.

Note: do not enter a password for the IPN in Alertpay as this tends to stop the IPN from working properly on Zen.


Hope this helps a few people.

regards

Eoin

The one Downer about using the Alertpay module is it does not show what your customer has ordered! Pain in the ###### if you sell more than one product LOL

I have searched for an add-on IPN for Alertpay but could not find one so I tested with the PayPal one... seems to be doing the trick for now.

If anyone has found an IPN designed for Alertpay can you please post it here as it would be very helpfull

Cheers

Any one offer some help on this, i cant seem to get the paypal ipn to work with alertpay

It is forwarding to https://www.YOUR--STORE.com/ipn_main_handler.php

instead of

http://www.YOUR--STORE.com/ipn_main_handler.php

I am curently using the alertpay moduel, but am having issues with some orders proceesing in alertpay but not updating the order to processing, i think this is due to a timeout issue,


Really could do with some help

[tommyboybid]

Can anyone help with this.

Every day now i am having 10-15 orders that are not updating after alertpay payments.

It seems like a timeout issue, i have tried changing the cach method, but this doesnt seem to have worked.


I really need to sort this IPN out or the timeout issue

[tommyboybid]

i think i am nearly there

But have an issue now with an error

"Sorry, the merchant does not accept the given currency. Please try again."

I have tried setting the currency to GBP and USD

I have also tried changing the ALertpay primary currency to USD but this also did not work

Any idea anyone

I also would like it to show what has been purchased on the Alertpay side. I want to try modify the code but need some help. Can anyone advise where I can find info on how to extract the items from the Zen order?

Just to jump on this,

How reliable has this been with Alertpay, im having to setup zencart using Alertpay, but obvious first signs are you have no idea what the customer has ordered within Alertpay, but I remember in the past orders from paypal didnt always get called back to the shop so this is the worry, how have peoples experience been with this?

Thanks
Sam
