Hi Edwin,

You are right. It's not easy to modify those codes of ps_paypal.php,.....

My question is "have you tried this??"

There are many parameters in ps_paypal.cfg.php:
{
Test mode ?
PayPal payment email:
Order Status for successful transactions:
Order Status for Pending Payments:
Accept only verified buyers?
Order Status for failed transactions:
}

And we are going to override all those settings in the beginning of the payment extra info with something like:
if defined( 'MULTISITES_ID') {
switch 'MULTISITES_ID' {
case 'xxxx':
PAYPAL_DEBUG = "1";
PAYPAL_EMAIL=myemail@myemail.com;
...
case 'yyyy':
;
}


My worry is all those parameters are shared with all slaved sites, will our modification induce any side effect?

Anybody have tried these?

Many thanks.

Seth

if you modify manually the ps_paypal.cfg.php, this means that you can no more edit the configuration using VM as it wills rewrite all the peace of code.
If you include the if defined in this files, it will be lost when you will update the configuration.
This is the reason why I have suggestted to do the update in the extra info.

I suggest that you test it yourself.
I have not tried.

Hey, just a note, what I have found out is that once I create the new replicated site, and install the Virtuemart Module that contains the frontend login, I can login via the frontend as admin and change the paypal email addresses and other store information and configure the store with no problem. I'm not sure why it works this way but it does. When I attempt to do this from the backend, I notice that my url changes back to the master site url's backend and leaves the current subdomain that the replicated site is located in.

Hi 27midwest1,

Very good tips! Thank you. Should you find out any other useful tips, pls share with us here.

Check the VirtueMart "general" configuration of the slave site that may have the SECURE URL having the URL of the master website.
This explain why it is redirected to the master website.
By default, when VirtueMart configuration is not edited or modified, it uses the one present in the master website.

As the all the VirtueMart payment method save their configuration on the disk, this is normal that whatever website will change this value.
