PayPal button modification – step 1

The first step is to modify the paypal button which is generated by Guru – find the file:

/components/com_guru/helpers/form.creator.php

and find this line:

$hidden .= "<input type='hidden' id='{$params['id']}' name='{$params['name']}' value='{$params['value']}'>\n";

change it to this:

/* Post Affiliate Pro integration snippet */
if ($params['name'] == 'notify_url') {
  $hidden .= "<input type='hidden' id='pap_ab78y5t4a' name='{$params['name']}' value='{$params['value']}'>\n";
}
else {
  $hidden .= "<input type='hidden' id='{$params['id']}' name='{$params['name']}' value='{$params['value']}'>\n";
}
/* /Post Affiliate Pro integration snippet */

PayPal button modification – step 2

Now find this line:

return $form;

and add this code above it:

/* Post Affiliate Pro integration snippet */
$form .= '<script id="pap_x2s6df8d" src="https://URL_TO_PostAffiliatePro/scripts/trackjs.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript">'.
"PostAffTracker.setAppendValuesToField('&pap_custom=');
PostAffTracker.setAccountId('Account_ID');
PostAffTracker.writeCookieToCustomField('pap_ab78y5t4a');
</script>";
/* /Post Affiliate Pro integration snippet */

Save your work.

PayPal request redirect

The information will be sent back to your Joomla when payment is paid, so we have to make sure the info is also sent to your Post Affiliate Pro. Find file:

/plugins/gurupayment/paypaypal.php

and find this line there:

function jcsPPGetInfo($params, $post, $default){

Now place this code just below the line:

/* Post Affiliate Pro integration snippet */
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://URL_TO_PostAffiliatePro/plugins/PayPal/paypal.php?pap_custom=".$_GET['pap_custom']);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $_POST);
curl_exec($ch);
/* /Post Affiliate Pro integration snippet */

Save your work. That’s it. Now payments in your Guru are integrated with your Post Affiliate Pro.

Do not forget to integrate your Joomla with the click tracking code so the integration could work.
