Known issue (and solution) with Order Verification Emails - PowerStore Version 2

In PowerStore Version 2, it was discovered that when a new customer makes a purchase using PayPal Express Checkout and has not previously registered on your site, the verification email is not being sent to the customer. In addition, the password included in the customer's email receipt will be incorrect.

We are now offering a simple fix in the Download Center of our website. Log in and visit downloadcenter.php. Click on PowerStore; then click on the Known Issues section. Download the zip file and follow the instructions in the readme file.

On the pp_confirm page I have made a lot of changes to the original. It took me ages to get it right and I would prefer not to have to do it again.

Can you please let me know what the new code is so that I can fix my existing page?

There are three pages where the code will need to be updated. The first page is going to the be the pp_confirm page.

update line 400 to look like this:

php:
$_SESSION["UserRandomPassword"] = "".(WA_RandomPassword(20, true, true, true, ""))  ."";



update what was originally on lines 539, 540, 541 to be like this:

php:
$WA_fieldNamesStr = "UserEmail|UserPassword|UserFirstName|UserLastName|UserCity|UserState|UserZip|UserVerificationCode|UserIP|UserPhone|UserCountry|UserAddress|UserAddress2";
  $WA_fieldValuesStr = "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["email"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserEmail'])  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["UserPassword"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserPassword'])  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["firstname"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserFirstName'])  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["lastname"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserLastName'])  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["shipping_city"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserCity'])  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["shipping_state_province"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserState'])  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["shipping_postcode"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserZip'])  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_SESSION["UserRandomPassword"]))?$_SESSION["UserRandomPassword"]:"")  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]))?$_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]:"")  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["phone"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserPhone'])  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["country"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserCountry'])  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["shipping_street1"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserAddress'])  ."" . "|" . "".((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["shipping_street2"]:$row_WAATKusers['UserAddress2'])  ."";
  $WA_columnTypesStr = "',none,''|',none,''|',none,''|',none,''|',none,''|',none,''|',none,''|',none,''|',none,''|',none,''|',none,''|',none,''|',none,''";



Next add in this code just after line 402:

php:
<?php
if (!session_id()) session_start();
if(
"" == "")     {
  
$_SESSION["UserPassword"] = "".(isset($_POST["UserPassword"]))?$_POST["UserPassword"]:""  ."";
}
?>



Next in the WA_Universal_Email > Email_Templates > pp_receipt.php

change line 31 to be like this:

php:
<h1 style="color:#3476a3; /* Accent_10 */ margin-bottom:7px; font-size:small;"> &nbsp;Email Address: <?php echo((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["email"]:""?>&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;Password: <?php echo $_SESSION['UserPassword']; ?></h1>



Finally in the WA_Universal_Email > Templates > pp_receipt.php

change line 28 to be like this:

php:
<h1 style="color:#3476a3; /* Accent_10 */ margin-bottom:7px; font-size:small;"> &nbsp;Email Address: <?php echo((isset($_POST["email"]))?$_POST["email"]:""?>&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;Password: <?php echo $_SESSION['UserPassword']; ?></h1>



Making these changes will set the user verification code correctly and allow a user to login with the password referenced.

Is this issue only relating to Paypal?

Is this issue only relating to Paypal Express Checkout? The reason I ask is because I'm not getting the email confirmation when the order is complete (I'm using Authorize.net).

I do get emails from the contact form so I know email is working.

I also unchecked the email customer in the Authorize.net panel, but I still get that email also. I have something jack'd up

This fix is just for PayPal Express Checkout and should have no barring on the Authorize.NET implementation. If you can please post a new thread detailing the issue and the things that you have tried.
