Posting paypal a custom value

tzn 10 Apr, 2015
Hi,

I am trying to follow this guide:
https://www.chronoengine.com/faqs/57-cfv4/cfv4-actions/2583-how-to-use-the-paypal-redirect-action.html

Before I do the redirect, I created a custom code which do this:

$form->data['test_custom_data'] = "test 1 2 3";

After this I have the PayPal redirect, and on the Advanced tab, I have the following:

Custom field: test_custom_data
Extra Params: custom=test_custom_data

But when PayPal returns to the IPN, I got an empty custom parameter. What is "custom=chronoform_data_..." in the example?

Hi tzn,

I don't use the PayPal Redirect action but looking at the code what you have here should work OK. Please drag a Debugger action into the On Submit event, then submit the form and post the debug results here to see if that has any clues.
