PayPal Subscription/Notify_URL NOT being called (works under Sandbox)

Question

I don't get it.. I tested out the subscription button in Sandbox mode and it ran through successfully. The test-business received the payment, and the notify_url was called just fine. But as soon as I swapped out of Sandbox mode, the business still gets payed, the subscription successfully gets set up, but the notify_url isn't even being called. The ONLY things I'm changing between the live/sandbox forms are:

{if $sandbox == TRUE}
    <form action="https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
{else}
    <form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
{/if}

and

{if $sandbox == TRUE}
     <input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="46CVBBYCFHPSY" />
{else}
     <input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="VCL8LGQUWCM5E" />
{/if}

and just in case it matters... the rest of it looks like:

        <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick" /><input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/GB/i/btn/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online." />
        <input type="hidden" name="custom" value="{$user->user_info.user_id}" />
        <input type="hidden" name="return" value="http://www.singlesikhs.co.uk/dev/singlesikhs/payment.php?task=success" />
        <input type="hidden" name="notify_url" value="http://www.singlesikhs.co.uk/dev/singlesikhs/payment_paypal.php?action=ipn" />
        <input type="hidden" name="cancel_return" value="http://www.singlesikhs.co.uk/dev/singlesikhs/payment.php?task=cancel" />
        <img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_GB/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
    </form>

Why oh why is this not working ?? I'm pulling my hair out over here trying to figure this out for my client. I can't figure where things are going wrong. Please help me, I'm supposed to get this finished for my client asap. I've got everything else working 100% except this 1 thing. Thanks..

Answer 1

I asked over on the PayPal forums and found out what was going wrong. Apparently for subscriptions, the business account must manually enter in their IPN settings under their profile.
