    It would appear to be the case. It was how it worked prior to my issue, so the suggestion I was initially given by the first Paypal person I asked ‘to open an account for each website’ was unnecessary. Not that I would have even considered doing that.

    Looks like it’s now resolved. I contacted Paypal who put me through to their technical team, this is what they wrote:

    “Thank you for contacting PayPal Merchant Technical Services.
    I have checked the IPN logs and i see IPN was disabled around that time and has been reenabled since. We apologize for any confusion, IPN can have 3 different statuses:
    – ON with a default URL:
    In this state you can still pass a value dynamically,
    If no value is passed in the code the default value will be used.
    – OFF no default value:
    In this state you can still pass a value dynamically,
    – Disabled: in this state IPN service is completely stopped.”

    I turned the IPN off (not disabled) with no specified URL and it now appears to be working, so all in all a glitch from Paypal’s side it appears.

    Thanks mbrsolution.

    Update:

    My host says: “I believe that this has been a temporary issue with the Paypal IPN. The issue has been already resolved. “

    Tested it… still not working. They seem unable to even see that there is a problem, let alone resolve it. My next step may be paypal.

    Thanks mbrsolution. I will let you know how I get on.

    My host have currently requested my log in details and are going to check the techie end of things on my site. I shall await their reply.

    If that fails I have been advised that I can contact Paypal and they can set up multiple URL notifications. No idea how or even if this will prove correct.

    Actually, I’ve just recreated the functions.php and it seems to have worked! Thanks for looking anyway.

    None – I just put the header.php file into the folder and it worked. When I deleted it, you can see what happened.

    Yes the parent theme is fine but obviously just the default blog.
