Created page with 'If your cart already supports PayPal IPN then you'll need to customize your script to communicate directly with ConversionRuler using the '''custom''' parameter passed in [[I…'

New page

If your cart already supports [[PayPal IPN]] then you'll need to customize your script to communicate directly with ConversionRuler using the '''custom''' parameter passed in [[Integrating PayPal Commerce Tracking|originally]].

An example, written in PHP to track order amounts and order numbers is:

<nowiki><?php
/* This is your custom IPN processing file */
... regular IPN tracking ...
$custom = isset($_REQUEST['custom']) ? $_REQUEST['custom'] : null;
if ($custom) {
$custom .= "&cramount0=" . urlencode($_REQUEST['mc_gross']);
$custom .= "&crtext0=" . urlencode($_REQUEST['txn_id']);
file_get_contents("https://www.conversionruler.com/bin/tracker.php?" + $custom);
}</nowiki>

Note the URL used to notify ConversionRuler is:

https://www.conversionruler.com/bin/tracker.php

Which takes a few query string parameters:

* crsite - The Site ID to track (You may also use the name '''siteid''')
* crcookie - The user's identification
* craction - The action code to record
* cramount0 - The order amount
* crtext0 - The order number
