chevy_stocker Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Hi everyone, we have a small quick question, we would like to have all the orders processed on our cart pass the details to PayPal's overview (recent activity) the more the details the better. Is this a special mod or something to activate? Should we use some third party software for this? Thanks in advance ps : We are using CubeCartv5 ps : We need something like this but maybe v5 already have it: http://cubecart.expandingbrain.com/cubecart-4-mods/paypal-shopping-cart-gateway-cc4/prod_156.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Any gateway can be coded to make whatever data is generated by the sale available to be transmitted. The question is whether or not the intended receiver has the API functions to accept the data and do something with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevy_stocker Posted December 8, 2014 Author Share Posted December 8, 2014 Thanks for the fast reply BSmither. Seems like old Cubecart versions had this feature but v5 does not. Do we need to code it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 In the file /modules/gateway/PayPal/gateway.class.php, there is a function repeatVariables(). Currently the code simply returns a false. By removing the block comments, /* and */, the function can be made to return the basket contents. The data will be included with all the other data about the order that gets sent to PayPal. Since I don't do PayPal, I do not know why this function is inert, nor do I know how PayPal will react if this data gets sent to it, nor do I know how to set up PayPal to show this data in any meaningful way. That discovery will have to be made by a person knowledgeable with PayPal. CubeCart also has a plugin variant (PayPal Express?) and I do not know where to enable the inclusion of the basket's contents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
