Paypal confirmation email : language issue

module_payment_paypal_purchase_description _title

Email confirmation from Paypal to my customers works correctly but instead of saying "smashing crafts stuff from Shaggy Dog Crafts" or other similar complimentary description of the customer's purchase, it says the text above.

Is there a Zen setting for this or is it a Paypal issue?

Re: Paypal confirmation email : language issue

You missed a step when you upgraded your shop.

The master PayPal module language file contains this line, but yours does not, for some reason:```
define('MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_PURCHASE_DECRIPTION_TITLE', STORE_NAME . ' Purchase');

Re: Paypal confirmation email : language issue

Except that strangely I do have that line of text in the right place!

Hmmm perhaps I need an exorcist! (I am currently suffering another ghostly problem)

This was a problem before I upgraded to 1.3.7 and even overwriting the file with a new one doesn't solve it.

Now what? :blink:

Re: Paypal confirmation email : language issue

Do you have an override file causing a conflict ?

Re: Paypal confirmation email : language issue

:D It seems the problem was an incorrectly loaded file:

public_html/ipn_main_handler.php

I had already tried overwriting it with the file I had stored on my system (which didn't work) so I took a fresh download of Zen1.3.7 and overwrote the file.

This is the 2nd time I've had this exact problem (it's just that having tried to overwrite the file with my "file copy" I hadn't thought to try a fresh download)

:thumbsup:

Re: Paypal confirmation email : language issue

Glad it's working for you.
Note that v1.3.7 has some patches issued for PayPal support, including the ipn_main_handler.php and some of its dependent files. You can grab the latest patch here:
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=56216
You only need to install the latest version, as it's cumulative. You'll need to "remove" and "re-install" the module in the admin for changes to take effect.
If you don't have Express Checkout enabled already, you should install it and then remove it again in order to update the core PayPal infrastructure tables with some fixes.
