Forces XenForo to use the Paypal sandbox.

When this add-on is active, XenForo will refuse to talk to live Paypal.

Activation requirements

  1. Log in with your paypal account into https://developer.paypal.com/, and ensure you have a Business sandbox user and a Personal sandbox user (you may need to change the password on any existing accounts).
  2. Ensure your Business sandbox user has Instant Payment Notification (IPN) enabled.
  3. Ensure this sandbox user is used by XenForo paypal configuration.
  4. Ensure the board site URL points to the site (ie testing.example.com)
  5. Your webserver must be configured to allow anonymous access to the file
    Code:
    /sandbox_payment_callback.php

    Sample nginx config (DO NOT USE AS IS):
    Code:
    # anonymous access
    location = /sandbox_payment_callback.php {
        try_files $uri =404;
        fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9001;
        include fastcgi_params;
    }
    
    # password protect site access
    location ~ \.php$ {
      auth_basic "Restricted";
      auth_basic_user_file /var/www/html/.htpasswd;
      log_not_found off;
      try_files $uri =404;
      fastcgi_pass fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9001;
      include fastcgi_params;
    }
