    Now that I am running WP 4.0 Paypal is sending me 404 errors on my IPN. When I type in the URL WP says paypal.php is 404 tho I have confirmed that it does exist on the server.

    Has anyone else had this problem or knows how to fix paypal.php so that it again processes paypal IPN’s?

    I have implemented the two popular fixes found on Google both in the donate-plus.php and inside paypal.php.

    I have also started to review the code in donate extra’s paypal.php and almost all of the code is the same as donate plus’s paypal.php with the notable exception of the fix on line 30 inside paypal.php
    require("../../../wp-load.php");
    instead of
    require("../../../wp-blog-header.php");

    I am going to see if these fixs make this plugin work with WP 4.0

    These fixes have done it. My IPN’s are coming through on WP 4.0

    IN donate-plus.php change the following code

    line 323
    OLD <code><?php echo str_replace(ABSPATH, trailingslashit(get_option('siteurl')), dirname(__FILE__)).'/paypal.php';?></code>

    NEW <code><?php _e('http://www.YOUR-SITES-URL.com/wp-content/plugins/donate-plus/paypal.php','dplus');?></code>

    line 395
    OLD $notify = str_replace(ABSPATH, trailingslashit(get_option('siteurl')), dirname(__FILE__)).'/paypal.php';

    NEW $notify = 'http://www.YOUR-SITES-URL.com/wp-content/plugins/donate-plus/paypal.php';

    —-

    IN paypal.php

    line 30
    OLD require("../../../wp-blog-header.php");

    NEW require("../../../wp-load.php");

    Hope that helps people out 🙂
