PHP Classifieds Script With PayPal ?

squirrelradio · #1 (**permalink**) 05-02-05, 11:01 PM

Hi All, I'm an intermediate scripter, I purchased a php classifieds software package off of this site (which was actually through summersell.com).

The problem is, the scripts all work properly except after a user pays through paypal they don't get the credit to post an ad (this was supposed to be automated). Instead I have to go in manually and do it which is not a good solution.
I'm really stuck here because I don't know how this process is coded so I don't even know what scripts to look at to debug or what to do to fix this.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

You can see my example at: http://www.summershorehouse.com/index.php

I understand your problem. However could you provide some more details as to how the credit system works with other payment engines?

It isn't setup for different payment engines, only PayPal, thats why its so important I get it setup correctly.

Thanks

It's nearly impossible to tell how the script works without seeing the source code.

Well it's all php so it can be viewed at the url I listed. However, I'm not sure what to post on here because as I said I don't know where to even look for it, I can't find the code needed since I don't know what it looks like.

I'm not a complete beginner, I know that, what I meant was you can view the php HTML files on the site.. I don't know what other info to give, I can't post code if I don't know where it is.

I'm just looking for some one to help here, I'm really stuck.

Thanks

If you aren't going to help, stop wasting my time by posting useless info.
People who actually who what they're talking about can help with my question.

FiRe was trying to tell you that if you don't show us the code, we will not be able to help you! that's all! so chill out

as for the HTML, it wouldn't help a bit!
it would help to show "PHP" code (the one with mysql_query() and other php functions not HTML) that is doing the registeration process (register.php) and how does a user get credits to post ads (MySQL credits table(s))
