I have developed custom webstore selling colored stones. Site uses Free PayPal standard Checkout. I have successfully implemented the site and paypal installation.
The issue is once after payment, if the buyers fail to click "Return to the Site", I am unable to get any notification and fail to update my inventories and mail the buyer's confirmation mail.
I'm unable to synchorise the webstore if buyer skips clicking "Return to site" displayed in paypal screen.
I want the paypal check-out screen to automatically return to my site after clicking pay-now.?
Please I am hugely stuck with this issue, I am unable to update my inventories.
Note - If the buyer clicks "Return to site" on the paypal screen, my inventories updates automatically to sold category.
The site is a custom build with FREE paypal standard checkout.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Auto Return is intended to function is a specific manor. If you have turned on Auto Return and have chosen to turn on PayPal Account Optional for new users, a new user will "not" be automatically directed back to your website, but will be given the option to return. They "must" click on the link to return to your web site.
Why, this is by design as PayPal wants to provide the customer the opportunity to sign up for a PayPal Account while they are still on the PayPal Screens. PayPal is first a corporation and it's mission to sign up new members.
In order to update your end, ever if the customer does not return to your site would be to use PayPal's IPN feature. You can find out more via the following links:
