How to install add on to fix PayPal standard

[So_Not_an_HTML_genius]

Hi There,

 

I am using Os Commerce 2.2 MS2, PHP version 5.2.17

 

We are only offering our customers to pay through PayPal and already have a PayPal Business account. The problem is when customers do not have a PayPal account and do not hit the return button, their order is gone from my store.

 

I recently thought the add package called: paypal_standard_1.0 could help me. I want to keep the standard checkout. But, I cannot get past the first installation that says:

The file listing is as follows:

• ext/modules/payment/paypal/standard_ipn.php

• includes/languages/english/modules/payment/paypal_standard.php

• includes/languages/espanol/modules/payment/paypal_standard.php

• includes/languages/german/modules/payment/paypal_standard.php

• includes/modules/payment/paypal_standard.php

I don't have a clue on the first file listing the ext/modules...etc. I don't have a folder in my os commerce file database called ext

I guess this will really show how little I know but if someone can steer me into the right direction. I don't understand there the standard_ipn.php goes.

I could really use the help because right now I have people making payments and no order to go with it because they are not returning to the store.

HELP please!

Thanks,

Kelly

Follow the instructions and upload add all needed files and directories to you site.

I did figure out what I was doing wrong - talk about complicating something that was fairly easy. All I had to do was ftp the folder and then each file. sigh BTW, I did use the first add on link that you gave me and I am so thankful for that module.

But here is another question, I have tested the site now and this is definitely fixing the issue. However, as a customer - I received confirmation of the order from PayPal but when I went back into my store my shopping cart still had the same item in it. As the store owner, I went into the order and there was an x next to updating customer. As the administrator I can send them an update - which is fine but again when the customer signs in to their account the item is still in their shopping cart.

Thanks,

Kelly
