Paypal Setup for Virtuemart v1.1


  • Ref:
  1. forum.virtuemart.net -- PayPal Set Up for VirtueMart 1.1


  • Paypal Main Class File: <Joomla Directory>/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/classes/payment/ps_paypal.php
  • Paypal Configuration File: <Joomla Directory>/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/classes/payment/ps_paypal.cfg.php
  • Notify Script File: <Joomla Directory>/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/notify.php
-- This is the script where paypal.com should post to when a transaction is made. If the transaction was VERIFIED, the order status is usually update to the oder status you have set in the configuration (you can set that for Confirmed, Pending & Failed payments).
-- Tested through the PayPal IPN Simulator: https://developer.paypal.com when "Test mode" is set to "Yes"
  • How? -> In Joomla admin backend -> VirtueMart -> List payment method -> Paypal [Note! Payment method type must be HTML-Form based (e.g. PayPal)] -> click on "Configuration" tab -> Set "Test Mode" to "Yes" for testing notify.php through IPN simulator
