I am looking for a tutorial which will show me how to accept paypal payments as I am not having much luck with the documentation.
In the tutorial, I just need to understand how to capture a unique identifier when the payment has been initiated, and then use the unique identifier to update the database record when payment confirms the payment via ipn.
Does such a tutorial exist?
Basically, I already have the payments working i.e. a user can make a payment and payment can send a notification to the ipn script, but I can't tell which payment paypal has accepted.
There are many reasons PayPal might not be working correctly. The site itself could be down, or you may have an unverified account or not enough money in your account. There's also a chance that you haven't confirmed your bank account or card.
Login to your account, then click the gear icon at the top right of the page to access your account settings. Then, click the Payments tab.
There guide is pretty well written and covers all of this:
