Need PayPal's PDT variables to use in page.

I need to access the PDT variables sent back form PayPal when a customer buys access to a page.

The only thing there is (will be, if I can get this worked out before my deadline, lol) for the customer on that page is a form in which they enter urls into a field. Other fields are populated with data from the PDT, name, email, etc allowing the customer to alter his details if necessary. Other PDT variables will also be ‘hidden’ values in the form, like the PayPal transaction ID.

Basically the customer pays for page access so they can enter infomation needed by us to complete the order of the service they have paid for.

I know this is to do with hooking and filters, ie getting at the data using s2members hooks and have found the relevant files, but I’m way over my head in this level of coding and really need some help. It seems simple, but I’ve a deadline looming in less than 24 hours and this has really stumped me.

Any help from some experienced coders who have a clear idea of what i’m trying to do here would be extremely useful. And very much appreciated, as other than editing themes, and creating page templates, my php is extremely limited.

Hi Paul,

I suggest doing a search on the s2Member site for “PDT Variables” and reading through the past forum threads related to this topic. As per our support policy (please see s2Member® » Support Policy » Outside Scope), we are unfortunately unable to assist with custom coding like this.

You may want to post your question on wordpress.stackexchange.com, WordPress.org Support forums, or even see if you can hire a programmer for a quick job on jobs.wordpress.net if time is of the essence.

Many Thanks Raam!

Those resources are just what I needed.
Making some headway!
