Thank-you page with Paypal Standard
May 06, 2007, 11:03:57 am
I have an active Paypal Standard contribution page.

When the payment is complete Paypal displays a thank-you page and the only button is "return to merchant."

That button takes the user back to the *beginning* of the contribution cycle
civicrm/contribute/transact?merchantRet.x=Return+To+Merchant

rather than the thank-you page I configured here:
civicrm/admin/contribute?

Is this a bug?

Bob:

What version of CiviCRM? and if v1.7, what rev of v1.7?

This is a paypal bug (IMO) where their behavior is not consistent when someone enters credit card information, rather than creating an account (or logging into an exisiting account) with paypal. We've hacked around it in rev 9294. so a release later than that should do the right thing

On a slightly different note, could you please take the time to write a wiki page on how democrats.com uses CiviCRM along with a review/critique at: http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRM/Implementation+Case+Studies. This really helps users/funders get a flavor of how, why and where civicrm is being used.

thanx

We are still getting this error with 1.7.9379 -- did the hack you mention make it into this version?  If not, I can add a hack redirect to solve this problem...

check:

http://fisheye.civicrm.org/browse/~br=v1.7,author=lobo/CiviCRM/branches/v1.7/CRM/Contribute/Form/ContributionBase.php?r=9294

lines 111-120

You might want to get marco to figure out what GET parameters paypal is returning and adjust it accordingly

Yes, checking for
Code: [Select]
isset( $_GET['merchantRet_x'] ) there did the trick.  Is PayPal inconsistent in how it behaves here?
