PayPal IPN with CodeIgniter

Lucas Davies picture Lucas Davies · Oct 20, 2010 · Viewed 11.1k times · Source

I am trying to implement a membership subscription service on a website built in CodeIgniter. I wish to use PayPal to manage payments, and am having a very hard time implementing this.

What I am trying to achieve is:

  1. User fills in a membership form with personal details
  2. User selects a subscription option (1 of 8 choices - each different price) and submits form
  3. User is sent to PayPal to pay
  4. User is returned to site upon successful payment and personal details are stored in database which creates user account (membership).

There is also the addition of form validation, I use the form_validation helper in CodeIgniter, but this needs to be done before PayPal payment can commence.

I have attempted to implement the PayPal_Lib from Ran Aroussi, but I feel it has not enough clear documentation or guidance on it. Any implemented examples or advice would be much appreciated.
