Hello,

I'm using CRE Loaded PCI B2B v6.4.1a and I have a problem with Text Attribute fields do not return from PayPal.

They show up in the Admin order screen but not in the email and this confuses the customers with this type of product. The attributes that use the radio button or the select box show up fine but not the attributes where a customer enters text.

Has anyone else encountered this or have a fix? It's the regular PayPal module that comes with CRE, not the Website Payments Pro or the PayPal Express Payment. I've tried using the other modules but the PayPal Express Payment just doesn't work at all (keeps saying Please select a payment module even when selected) and I don't want WPP.

Any ideas?

Thank you

Could be several reasons, most of them lying with PP I think.

Anyway from the cart side, you're using the Website Payment Standards module in 641a (it'll just be called paypal.php and have $Id: paypal.php,v 2.8 2004/09/11 devosc Exp $ in the header of the file) with itemized order details selected in the modules settings right?

PP has limitations on field lengths that it accepts for product information. Some are 64 characters.
Also, given its a free text entry, there may be other security reasons why this type of attribute isn't accepted at the PP end of things, and therefore not returned.

You can read more about the spec here: https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd= ... lvariables

Yes, I'm using the paypal.php file you referenced.

This wasn't an issue with CRE 6.2. I was passing text attribute fields of the same size without any issue.

It would be nice to know how to work around this. I'm fairly good in PHP but this one stumps me.

Have you tried it then with a 6.2 install to test it now?
