Paypal IPN - Is it possible to have to zen carts with the same IPN?

Hello,

I am setting up a second site and was wondering if I can use the same ipn?
Is it possible to have to zen carts with the same IPN?

Any Suggestions if not?

Thank You,

Yes. Configure them as if they were the only one using the account. They will operate cooperatively.
In your PayPal website settings, you can only choose "one" return destination. That's fine. Zen Cart will specify the right one to override the settings when the "other" store attempts access.

One more question about this.
I would use seperate email addresses for each site though right or does it even matter?

Thank You.

Should use your "primary" paypal email address in both stores.

Re: Paypal IPN - Is it possible to have to zen carts with the same IPN?

I have a similar situation where I have two stores using one Paypal account. However, when I place an order on one store, the other store receives a duplicate order in it's system.

Any ideas what I'm missing?
