Two web sites one PayPal account

In another thread Dr Byte said
"Yes you can use it for multiple sites. Zen Cart sends override information to keep the stores separate."

Sorry I'm not clear on how to configure this. At the moment I have the IPN on in my PayPal profile and a return address in there to my archerytrousers web site. This works fine.

How do I configure things so that I return to my other web site (mohairsocks.co.uk) when I've purchased there instead?

thanks

ZenCart should take care of this when you install paypal
module on that site..ipn return address should reflect url
where your install is housed. HTH

I think that's exactly the problem ... I created a Paypal account and in that account I have a profile which uses IPN to notify that the payment's been made and a web site return address to return the user to my web site - singular. I now want to have another web site, using the same Paypal account and returning to that web site.

Sorry to be thick but exactly how does Zencart "take care of it"? The IPN address is entered in the Paypal profile as far as I can see and there's only space for one address. Similarly with the web site return address. How will Paypal know to return to mohairsocks.co.uk and not archerytrousers.co.uk -

Sorry I'm really not sure how I'm supposed to set this up :(

In ZenCart, via admin, modules, payment, PayPal IPN, have you installed
this yet?

IIRC, the way it's supposed to work is that each store will send its own return and IPN address to Paypal with the transaction details, which will override the IPN and return address you have entered in the Paypal profile.

Maybe give it a try - leave your settings as they are for the first store, and put a test transaction through on the second store and see what happens :smile:
