If so, you will want to get an SSL certificate. PayPal has instructions on how to create your own private key using OpenSSL. Go to PayPal -> Profile -> Encrypted Website Payments and read for directions. Once you have your keys, you can proceed with the PayPal IPN Contributions instructions. I can't help beyond that. Good luck! :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what happens is that before I was doing some reading on the OpenSSL And I don't know how to do that ANd did not find any easy directions on how to do it. Also I am using a Windows PC and everything on the site was for Linux. What would happen if I use UnEncrypted? (I guess someone might Get some info) Any Suggestions.
