Paypal Integration
Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2008 8:31 am
Hi all,
I have posted this over at the Paypal Dev forums, but response is less than quick, so I thought I'd try here too
I have a subscription set up, and want to have results posted back to me using IPN. I understand the process etc, thats not the issue. What is, is this:
If someone signs up for a new subscription, when they return to my site, I can grab the subscription id (subscr_id), and log it into the database and assign it to that user. When the subscription renews, will the subscription id still be the same? If it is, I can check against which user it belongs very simply - but if it is different, how could I know who the renewal belongs to?
I thought about loggin the email that paypal gives for the payee, but if that person pays for say their own account, and maybe their childs - then I am buggered.
Any help would be amazing
