HappySmoking Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I've been trying to setup PayPal in our IPS Commerce application for a little over a week. It looks like PayPal has updated their website's pages and navigation so I spent a good number of emails back and forth with IPS support to get this working. Perhaps i was too dumb to figure it out on my own but I thought to share the instructions with you guys. Step 1 (IPS Admin) AdminCP --> Commerce -- > Settings --> Payment Setting --> PayPal (Edit) Step 2 (PayPal API) Log into PayPal --> Go to My Apps & Credentials: https://developer.paypal.com/developer/applications/ Step 3: Create New App Step 4: Get API Credentials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stripe you can do a sandbox with IPS I am not sure about the others. But I do agree that they need to support sandbox for PayPal as you would want to know that all the API is working correctly before going live with it, It shocked me to find out I could not try it in test mode and then gave a error code when trying.

Fosters Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 IPS supports the paypal sandbox . Just use the NEXUS_TEST_GATEWAY constant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just use the NEXUS_TEST_GATEWAY constant. should be a Yes/No option, I have made paypal php scripts years ago and it's not that hard, Plus it's a lot easier then creating a constants.php and then having to edit it each time you want to change it. Plus I bet 90% of users don't know about the constants.php and if they did the cloud users can not access it and then requires IPS support to get it done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK like I said, I might be a cloud user, Now how do I do it? Contact IPS and wait for them to do it? Would rather toggle a button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
