I am attempting to upgrade our PayPal donations page, which uses code that predates both V1 and V2. We are a membership organization, and with that code the email which goes out to our members when they purchase a membership looks like this: Description Unit price Qty Amount Item Name: Membership Item# $65.00 USD 1 $65.00 USD I have I have successfully managed to vary the Unit price (above) according to the membership level selected using radio buttons. And I got the PayPal buttons working with the sandbox using the following code: paypal.Buttons({ createOrder: function(data, actions) { var ele = document.getElementsByName('amount'); for(var i = 0; i < ele.length; i++) { if(ele[i].checked) { var described = 'Membership'; var camount = ele[i].value; // Standard membership donation. var eleid = ele[i].id; if (eleid == "5") { var spec = document.getElementsByName('Samount'); // Special donation amount camount = spec[0].value; described = 'Special donation'; } } } return actions.order.create({ purchase_units: [{ // I can't figure out how to set the item name. amount: { value: camount // this is how I inserted the amount from the radio buttons } }] }); }, onApprove: function(data, actions) { return actions.order.capture().then(function(details) { alert('Thank you for your contribution, ' + details.payer.name.given_name); }); } }).render('#paypal-button-container'); // Display payment options on your web page But I cannot figure out where to set the item name. And also, our old interface used to use the "Donate" button option, and I cannot find that option in the new code. I have tried to set up purchase_units copying the syntax in the documentation using this code: purchase_units: [{ description: 'Membership', amount: { value: '0.01' } }] However, whenever I include the "description:" line, the buttons fail to appear. Remove that line and it works just fine. Finally, I have not been able to log into my business sandbox account using the credentials automatically generated for me by PayPal. So, I can't even look at the transactions to see if they work (if/when they work). So, I'm looking for help or suggestions for these issues: 1. Donate instead of purchase button process (even if the button design doesn't change; I don't want to deal with shipping); 2. Setting the Item Name; 3. Logging into the supplied business sandbox account which was automatically created; Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
