Something like this:</p> <pre><code>$query = &quot;select form_name from &quot;.MF_TABLE_PREFIX.&quot;forms where form_id = ?&quot;; $params = array($form_id); $sth = mf_do_query($query,$params,$dbh); $row = mf_do_fetch_result($sth); $form_name = $row[&#39;form_name&#39;]; $item_name .= &quot; - &quot;.$form_name; $paypal_params[&#39;item_name_&#39;.$i] = $item_name; $paypal_params[&#39;amount_&#39;.$i] = $amount; $paypal_params[&#39;quantity_&#39;.$i] = $quantity;</code></pre> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/more-descriptive-paypal-description#post-21041 Thu, 15 May 2014 21:11:33 +0000 jhinkle 21041@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Is there a way to always add the form title to the item name? like this:</p> <pre><code>$item_name .= &quot; - &quot;.$form_name; $paypal_params[&#39;item_name_&#39;.$i] = $item_name; $paypal_params[&#39;amount_&#39;.$i] = $amount; $paypal_params[&#39;quantity_&#39;.$i] = $quantity;</code></pre> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/more-descriptive-paypal-description#post-21003 Fri, 09 May 2014 22:32:47 +0000 jhinkle 21003@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Perfect, I'll try this out.</p> <p>Thanks for the quick response! </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/more-descriptive-paypal-description#post-20990 Fri, 09 May 2014 08:50:34 +0000 yuniar 20990@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>You can edit the "includes/post-functions.php" file. Search around line 3851 for this code:</p> <pre><code>$paypal_params[&#39;item_name_&#39;.$i] = $item_name; $paypal_params[&#39;amount_&#39;.$i] = $amount; $paypal_params[&#39;quantity_&#39;.$i] = $quantity;</code></pre> <p>Basically you only need to adjust the $item_name above.</p> <p>Something like this:</p> <pre><code>if($form_id == 23){ $item_name .= &quot;My Form Title&quot;; } $paypal_params[&#39;item_name_&#39;.$i] = $item_name; $paypal_params[&#39;amount_&#39;.$i] = $amount; $paypal_params[&#39;quantity_&#39;.$i] = $quantity;</code></pre> <p>That would add "My Form Title" at the end of the item name. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/more-descriptive-paypal-description#post-20970 Wed, 07 May 2014 23:54:43 +0000 jhinkle 20970@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>We have a few different conferences going right now and the Paypal transactions are intermingled. Our financial person wanted a list of all the transactions to balance the checkbook, but the descriptions were pretty vague. Is there any way you can attach the form name to the Paypal transaction details? </p>
