Hi,
when i try to use groups paypal for a subscription i get a redirection to paypal and the following error
“Some required information is missing or incomplete. Please correct your entries and try again.”
i have tried putting basic information in the paypal and subscription boxes just to test, but cant find any combination that gives me success.
the subscription is shown here www.mokyfit.co.uk/pay
any help would be appreciated.
thanks
mat

      Glad to be able to help 🙂 The cause of it was wrong HTML you had on that page. It wasn’t evident when viewing it with the visual editor, but the text mode revealed that there were lines which were incorrect.

      Thanks Mat, looking at the page in Text mode instead of Visual reveals code that shouldn’t be there. This is what was there. After removing all the HTML and just leaving the shortcode there, it looks good to go now.

      Thanks Mat, it didn’t arrive – I’ve created a new account with username foo, please raise it to admin and let me know when it’s done.

      Hi Mat,

      Thanks for the info, the shortcode looks ok.

      Do you have any other plugin installed that might be interfering? Taking a second look at how this is rendered on your page right now, the form with the Subscribe button references PayPal’s URL in the action attribute but this is not correct. At that stage, the original form doesn’t do that.

      We can also have a look at the admin section if you want (create an account for support at itthinx dot com in that case please).

      Cheers

    Hi, the HTML on that page contains two forms, but none of them are valid, there are effectively missing fields – are you using the [groups_paypal_subscription] shortcode there or can you please post the code that is used on that page (use pastebin to post code) ?
