[TH] Donate 1.1.8 Patch Level 1

[spicer]

IPN has been working for a long time now.
However, from time to time I receive the following email from Paypal:

Check your server that processes instant payment confirmations (IPN) from PayPal. IPNs sent to the following URL(s) are not being received:

https://www.my_forum.ch


If you do not know this URL, you may be using a service provider that uses IPN on your behalf. Please contact your service provider with the above information. If this problem persists, it may be that IPNs are disabled for your account.

Where/what settings need to be made?
I have a root server.

Do you use PayPal for anything else? It doesn't look like that's related to an XF payment because the URL would include payment_callback.php in it (unless you've redacted the whole URL instead of just the domain).

You can check the server error log to see if there's any issues, but otherwise the processing of payments is handled by core XF the same as it is for things like user upgrades. If there's no errors, it's possible the requests are being blocked by the server which you'd need to investigate, so check if there's anything in the Apache/Nginx error logs.

Ah, that's my private Paypal account.
I also use it for other purposes.
Is that the problem?
Then I can ignore this message?

 

[mattrogowski]

You'll want to keep an eye on it because if too many IPNs fail then PayPal will disable it and then none will work. If it's only a handful that fail and the majority work it should be fine, but ideally you'll want to try and stop it sending for payments to a URL that isn't handled.

Anyone can confirm if this addon will be continued at 2.3?
I’d like to know this before I decide to use it or no, thanks

 

[mattrogowski]

We have no plans to discontinue it, but it's a free addon anyway so there's no risk in using it.

I have no worries about risks because I have used this addon in the past.
I just wanna know if it will be updated for 2.3

 

[mattrogowski]

Currently as far as I'm aware we'll be updating them (if they even need updates).

When it comes to 3.0 we'll probably need more clarity on the theme changes.

Hi @mattrogowski,

Any way of clearing a specific donation that has been refunded? Thanks in advance.

There you can delete the donations.

Is it possible for a user to have a recurring donation without having a goal or date limit on a campaign?

 

[thunderclap82]

I would like a feature added so you don't have to run a campaign and just have a donation without a goal or anything.

I don't believe this is supported, no.

We don't have any plans to disassociate the donations from a campaign, but the goals are optional. The campaigns are simply the way the donations are listed, there has to be some way to display them. I'm not sure what the real world difference would be between having a single campaign with no goal, and having no campaign at all.

I want to remove this

And this


I want to remove accumulated donations from the public profile information.

It would be interesting to have an option where (with permissions) only the administrator - and the donor himself - could see the accumulated donations.

There is a Profile Tab option that is very interesting. But I would like only me (and an administrator with permission) and the member themselves to be able to see their own donations. Or even just me. Would it be possible to add these permission possibilities in the future? I would really appreciate it and I'm testing the addon now. I'm really enjoying it and I'm very happy to know that it will continue to be supported.
