That's it.<\/p>\n\n<p>You can use it to sell any type of product\/s on your website. There is no cart, checkout process or anything complicated - it just lets the user buy a single product in 1 click, then returns them to a URL of your choice, and emails them the auto-responder.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Example Usage<\/h4>\n\n<p>Let's say you're selling an eBook. User clicks \"Buy\" button &gt; user is directed through PayPal checkout &gt; once checkout it completed user is returned to a thank you URL and emailed the eBook.<\/p>\n\n<p>I developed this plugin for a usage similar to above example. I didn't want a fully fledged eCommerce system, and many other solutions include Add to Cart and then whole heap of other stop screens that hindered the transaction.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Key Features<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Simple, light-weight PayPal plugin<\/li>\n<li>Can handle multiple products<\/li>\n<li>Can accept any currency PayPal can handle<\/li>\n<li>Set customer return URL <\/li>\n<li>Helpful tags available to use in auto-responder template<\/li>\n<li>Use default PayPal 'buy now' button or upload a png button of your own<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Pro Version Available<\/h4>\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/enigmaplugins.com\/plugins\/paypal-responder-pro\/\">Get Pro Version<\/a> if you need the following advanced features:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Attach a file to responder (simple digital delivery of your product)<\/li>\n<li>Unlimited responder templates (so you can use a different email responder for each different product)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Upload the <code>paypal-responder<\/code> folder to the <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n<li>Activate the PayPal Responder plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<li>Configure the plugin by going to the <code>PayPal Responder<\/code> tab that appears in your admin menu.<\/li>\n<li>Add buy buttons to any page using shortcode which is generated in the Manage Products area<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt>Installation Instructions<\/dt>\n<dd><ol>\n<li>Upload the <code>paypal-responder<\/code> folder to the <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n<li>Activate the PayPal Responder plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<li>Configure the plugin by going to the <code>PayPal Responder<\/code> tab that appears in your admin menu.<\/li>\n<li>Add buy buttons to any page using shortcode which is generated in the Manage Products area<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/dd>\n<dt>The auto-responder is not working<\/dt>\n<dd><p>Firstly, please check your SPAM folder. It's pretty common for WordPress generated email to get sent to SPAM, or even rejected by the recipient mail server entirely.  A good solution is to configure WordPress to send systems generated emails over SMTP instead of using PHP mail(). I recommend Callum Macdonald's plugin <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-mail-smtp\/\">WP Mail SMTP<\/a><\/p><\/dd>\n<dt>What could I sell with this plugin?<\/dt>\n<dd><p>You can sell whatever you want. There aren't any fancy features in this plugin - like it doesn't have delivery options, order management etc so it's really designed for just a single simple product. For example I use it to sell access to a private site - after successful checkout user is sent the password to log in. You could use it for other similar things like to sell a PDF or eBook, or you might use it for selling a virtual product or service like say consultation services for example.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt>Can I add more than 1 product?<\/dt>\n<dd><p>Yes the plugin can have any number of products. In this free version you can only set 1 return URL and 1 email auto-responder template.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt>Can I attach a file to send with the auto-responder?<\/dt>\n<dd><p>Not in free version. You can in Pro - <a href=\"http:\/\/enigmaplugins.com\/plugins\/paypal-responder-pro\/\">available here.<\/a><\/p><\/dd>\n<dt>Where can I get support for this plugin?<\/dt>\n<dd><p>If you've tried all the obvious stuff and it's still not working please request support via the forum.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n<!--section=changelog-->\n<h4>1.2<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Added PayPal partner code<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>1.1<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Security patch for hiding PayPal amount field<\/li>\n<li>Corrected currency text on settings screen<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>1.0<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Initial release<\/li>\n<\/ul>","raw_excerpt":"A really simple PayPal plugin.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin\/22075","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/plugin"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22075"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wporg\/v1\/users\/enigmaweb"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22075"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"plugin_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_section?post=22075"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_tags?post=22075"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_category?post=22075"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_contributors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_contributors?post=22075"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_business_model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_business_model?post=22075"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
