Yeah, the way things are set up, users have to kind of see the same thing several times if admins want good info to come through PayPal. So you have something like:</p> <p>FELLOWS DINNER REGISTRATION</p> <p>Amount of FELLOWS DINNER REGISTRATIONS:</p> <p>vs. something cleaner, like</p> <p>FELLOWS DINNER REGISTRATION</p> <p>Amount: __ (admin label: FELLOWS DINNER REGISTRATION)</p> <p>Again, thanks for your help. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/pass-admin-name-to-paypal#post-37162 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 16:56:01 +0000 Carl Hancock 37162@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The way the Product Fields work, here is what is passed to PayPal.</p> <p>When using a Single Product field type the Field Label is passed as the Product Name.</p> <p>When using a User Defined Price field type the Field Label is passed as the Product Name.</p> <p>When using a Drop Down or Radio Button field type the Choice Label of the drop down or radio button selection is the Product Name.</p> <p>Currently there is no way to pass the Admin Label as the Product Name, although it is a good suggestion and we can look at making this change in a future enhancement to the PayPal Add-On. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/pass-admin-name-to-paypal#post-37138 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 16:24:21 +0000 aliguori 37138@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Here's my question, or maybe it's a feature request:</p> <p>I'm having a problem with passing item name information to PayPal. Essentially, if the item name is a specific thing with a specific price, it passes through just fine with no input from me, notifies correctly, etc. However, when I make something that has an amount, it just comes through as "Amount" or whatever. Is there a way to populate the data that is passed to PayPal with the admin label of an amount field rather than what the field is explicitly called (which is always going to be something like "Amount," "Number of Registrations," or something equally unhelpful? </p>
