From memory (it has been a while), i am using this plugin from Booher:

http://community.mybb.com/thread-105820.html

I had a couple of questions regarding this & general PayPal integration with myBB.

When a user buys from me, PayPal does not pass on the address to me with the order. This happens everytime so i was wondering if something could be changed within the plugin? (I have a donation plugin and that gives me the address all the time).


Also, sometimes when i receive money, i think as a gift, PayPal takes no fees; is this something that can also be changed in the plugin?


Thanks in advanced.
Apparently paypal changed their IPN recently so it requires an extra field to get the address of the payee. Not 100% sure on what it is.

You cannot accept IPN payments as a gift. Also, if you take a lot of gifts from people paypal will notice and most likely freeze your account
Danger! ?

The person who made that plugin is banned and the original download is disabled. Does anyone know why?
Is it "malware"?

No, the user posted the wrong URL.
