We have multiple events at times and when reconciling in PayPal, they are grouped as “PayPal Shopping Cart Payment” instead of event names. Is it possible to have PayPal recognize each event separately?

Our website is http://www.ryepta.org.

Thank you,
Kristin Scully

It looks like you have both EE4 and EE3 installed and activated on your site at the same time, causing a crash. I thought we had put safeguards in place to prevent that. You will need to go in with ftp and rename one of those plugin folders to interupt WP and get it to deactivate one of the EE versions. Either “/home/ryepta/ryepta.org/wp-content/plugins/event-espresso-core-reg” or “/home/ryepta/ryepta.org/wp-content/plugins/event-espresso”

Nvm, looks like you cleared it.
Looks like you are on EE3, so the relavent line in the paypal gateway is:
$myPaypal->addField('item_name_' . $item_num, $item->price_option . ' for ' . $item->event_name . '. Attendee: ' . $item->fname . ' ' . $item->lname);
So we are sending the detailed information as the line item information, According to Paypal’s docs (https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/paypal-payments-standard/integration-guide/Appx_websitestandard_htmlvariables/) “To pass an aggregate name for the entire cart, use item_name_1. ” So maybe if there are more than one item in the cart, Paypal is using that standard entry for the entire cart.
