How to send payflow pro comments to paypal?

Hello,

I am using PayFlow pro 1.3.8 and have it successfully installed and running properly. However, I need to send some information to the comment #2 field within paypal.
My client requires me to send the customers first & last name to the comment#2 field.

Is there a setting to do something like this? Or do I have to alter some code? If so, where would I find some documentation or at least a base to start from?

Thanks,
--Steven

You'll have to edit code.

Find this section of code, and insert the extra line as shown:```
'STATE' => $order->billing['state'],
[B] 'COMMENT2' => $order->customer['firstname'] . ' ' . $order->customer['lastname'],[/B]
'EXPDATE' => $cc_expdate_month . $cc_expdate_year,

Dr.,

Thanks for gettting back to me.

It seems too easy.

Is that all there really is to it?

I will try it out this weekend and see what happens.

What would this forum be without you?
:clap:

Thanks so much for answering all of my questions.
