IPN unable to verify my url

Gravity Support Forums » Plugin Support » Gravity Forms PayPal Add-On

    Hi,

    I'm attempting to set up my pay-pal add on.
    I've purchased the developer license and installed the add on inside of gravity forms.

    When I go to the IPN settings page and enter the url http://mixfortv.com/?page=gf_paypal_ipn I get the following error:

    "We were unable to validate the URL you have entered. Please check your entry and try again."

    From some other searches in the forums, it looks like its possible that this is caused by the fact that my paypal email and my gravity forms email are different.

    Since I'm administering the site but not dealing with the payments, the emails do need to be different. Is there a way to make this work?

    thanks!

    You have to use the primary email address on the account in the PayPal settings for this to work.

    That IPN URL is valid and returns a 200 status code (Success.) I don't know if that's related or not. I have never seen that error message from PayPal. Have you contacted their support regarding the cause of the error?
