Show page after PayPal payment

[ianhaney]

Hi

I am looking for advice, I need a user to see a php page with a job advert form on only once PayPal payment has been received which I know how to do and is working but I need the user to be only allowed to submit the job advert form once and if they want to add a new job advert then they need to pay via PayPal again

Is this possible to do

Thank you in advance

Ian

Could help http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6980553/accessing-a-page-only-after-a-paypal-payment-has-been-made plus there are links to the PayPal API and tutorials in the comments - one-time payments looks promising https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/express-checkout/ht_ec-singleItemPayment-curl-etc/

Hi Beverley

Thank you for the reply and the links, I am looking at the paypal one time payment but unsure how to code it in my php page and what if the user adds a job and then goes back to the same url a minute later and adds another job, they can add another job without paying?

Would you be able to help me on this as I can't find any sample coding that I can use to get me started?

Thank you in advance

Sorry I haven't really looked at it so I don't know how it would work.

If I have time when I'm back in the office I'll try and look at it in more detail, but I can't promise anything around my other work.

That's ok no worries, thank you for taking a look when you can, appreciate it

In the mean time, I'll keep looking around on Google and see if can find any sample code for it to start me off

I found the following link that looks quite straight forward but I already have paypal ipn so not sure if is best to get rid of that coding and use the coding from the following link

I did think what if I just add a cancel url in, would that prevent them from accessing the page after paying and visiting it once so if they try to visit it a second time it will just redirect them to the cancel url I put in?
