IPN Help

[polarweb]

Well, I deleted a thread cause I thought of something as I was posting that I tried, but it didnt work and I am back to square one with a new post.

Anyhow, the IPN example script is working after payment, everything looks good there. I am trying to modify this for what I had before on Fabrik 2.

I am trying to collect the user's email address provided on the form instead of using the payer_email that comes with the paypal ipn. Here is the script I was using for Fabrik 2, I tried the same thing for my new IPN script and for whatever reason its not working:

$custom = JRequest::getVar('custom');
list($formid, $rowid, $ipn_value) = explode(":", $custom);
$listModel =& JModel::getInstance('Table', 'FabrikModel');        
$listModel->loadFromFormId($formid);
$data = $listModel->getRow($rowid, false, true);

$payer_email = $data->eals_fabrik_ariana___email_address;

Any thoughts or ideas?

As a complete guess.... ;D

$listModel = JModel::getInstance('List', 'FabrikFEModel');

I can't diagnose the rest though but this may get you further. Post back and let us know.

I think Felix's suggestion is correct. I don't see any other issues with those lines of code.

Updated..

I updated it, with what you recommended. It didn't work and I was able to dig up the error log. Here is the result..

PHP Fatal error:  Call to a member function getCfg() on a non-object in /home/epicorgo/public_html/plugins/fabrik_form/paypal/scripts/ariana_ipn.php on line 18

Here's line 18??

$MailFrom = $mainframe->getCfg('mailfrom');

Makes no sense why this is wrong, unless...we need to expand on $mainframe...something like...just guessing here...

$mainframe = JFactory::getApplication();

I am really new at PHP, so I could be totally off..not sure how to apply this JFactory::getApplication tho..

I fixed it..

I am getting better at this PHP thing..here's what I did to fix the errors:

I changed this:

global $mainframe;
$MailFrom = $mainframe->getCfg('mailfrom');
$FromName = $mainframe->getCfg('fromname');
$SiteName = $mainframe->getCfg('sitename');

To:

$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$MailFrom = $app->getCfg('mailfrom');
$FromName = $app->getCfg('fromname');
$SiteName = $app->getCfg('sitename');

Apparently they say: NOTE: The use of the global variable $mainframe has been deprecated as of 1.5 and has been removed in 1.6.

http://docs.joomla.org/Application_(CMS)

As I love Fabrik, I went ahead and made a fix to the IPN Example Script. Uploaded as text..

 

[polarweb]

The thing that makes no sense here, is why the global variable was working on the example script, but not on the one I added the email inquiry..

 

[cheesegrits]

Better would probably be:

$config = JFactory::getConfig();
$MailFrom = $config->getvalue('mailfrom');
$Fromname = $config->getValue('fromname', $Mailfrom);
$SiteName = $app->getCfg('sitename');

Try that, let me know if it works.

Not Able To Test It

I am unable to test that line of code now. I am having a seperate issue altogether now with Paypal Plugin.

Upon form submit, data goes into the database, and the email plugins are working.

Problem Is:

Form plugin paypal does not send user to Paypal for payment and a pop-up box appears. I am at wits end trying to figure out what I changed that caused all this to start occuring.

The only thing I am seeing in the error log at this point is this:

PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined method stdClass::getForm() in /home/epicorgo/public_html/components/com_fabrik/views/form/view.html.php on line 39

I even went back and tried using the original IPN example file, no file, no matter what, its doing this now..and I haven't modified anything else in terms of coding..

PHEW, Thank Goodness...

I found out the problem. It is originating from me using the Content Plug In. Somewhere, this is conflicting with the Paypal Plugin. Don't ask me how, I was able to get the form to redirect to paypal after changing my Joomla Menu Item back to Fabrik->Form, instead of Single Article with Content Plugin...

I like using this view, because the CSS is cleaner inside the article, as opposed to the Form INTRO description in Fabrik.

I am considering building new Fabrik Templates altogether, but for the moment, I don't have time..

I'll be right back to let you know if that snippet of code worked..

 

[polarweb]

That line of code you recommended DOES NOT work for my IPN script.

However, this does, a slight variation to yours:

$config = JFactory::getConfig();
$MailFrom = $config->getvalue('mailfrom');
$FromName = $config->getvalue('fromname');
$SiteName = $config->getvalue('sitename');
