Paypal Verification Purchase

3 replies
Is there a way to add a name box to a Paypal "buy now" button
so that when someone goes to a page that has that the buy now
button there, they have to input their name into a box before they
can hit the buy now button?

I also would would like it to send the name after they have paid,
to an email address to manually collect the name to update their
membership fee.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hmm. Most people use an autoresponder to handle this type of thing. Gary Ambrose's Listwire is a pretty simple but effective free one if you want to give it a try to see if it will do what you want.

    Actually it's for a client. I built a membership site for her, but now she
    wants some custom re-coding for a feature she needs. For the time
    being, until the developers re-do the script, she needs a way to collect
    the annual memberships that are coming due now.

    So she asked me to put up the 5 Paypal buttons on separate pages
    on a temporary private area of the site just to pay for the dues
    of present members until the membership script is re-done.

    She needs to track the members who pay so that there's a verification
    of the payment and name to manually input into a database file to upload
    in a week to the re-scripted site .

    So I've got 5 pages with different buy now buttons on each and I need a
    way to put a name box in the coding, so when they reach the site, they
    input their name, press buy now, make a payment and the name goes
    to her email address to verify payment and input into a paid section of
    the site.

    Unless someone has a more ingenious way?
