Are the pre and post hooks called during IPN transaction?
November 04, 2010, 03:42:26 pm
I would like to use the pre or post hooks to modify contribution parameters after Paypal has sent a completed transaction notice via IPN.  As far as I can tell, neither of these hooks fire as part of the "complete transaction" process initiated by an IPN.  Am I correct in this?  If so, I was wondering if there is any reason not to have these hooks available as part of the IPN process.

I have been able to uses these hooks as part of a manual submission of a new contribution record, so I think I have the hooks properly written.   IF I am wrong about all of this, I would appreciate any info on where the hooks are called within the IPN process.

Thanks

1. which hook are you talking about specifically?

2. what version?

3. In v3.1 and prior, we did not bootstrap drupal on bin scripts (like the IPN) and hence no hooks were called. This has been fixed in v3.2

Sorry for not providing more detailed info.  I am currently running CiviCRM 3.2.4 on Joomla 1.5.18.

I am trying to use civicrm_pre and civicrm_post hooks. 

I have been able to accomplish what I need by modifying CRM>Core>Payment>BaseIPN.php.  Using hooks rather than custom php would be a little cleaner.

we currently dont bootstrap joomla in bin scripts and hence no hooks are called. Would be great if you can give it a shot and add joomla bootstrap code here:

CRM/Utils/System/Joomla.php, function loadBootStrap

you can check the equivalent code for Drupal in Drupal.php
