I'm having a problem with Paypal IPN. My setting for IPN listener is dynamic. The notify_url i set is working when i'm using my sandbox account but once i go live, it seems like the paypal is bypassing the notify_url i set. Is there a settings on my live account that i should turn on/off? Thank you.

In my experience it's good to setup a very simple default listener that you can use within the PayPal account profile. This way you can actually enable IPN on the account and set that basic URL, which could really do nothing at all if you want.
Then set dynamic URLs using NotifyURL in buttons or API requests. Sometimes if the IPN setting in the account isn't specificlly set to ON then I've noticed it won't send with notify either. Maybe give that a try.

I have a similar issue, seems like my paypal form skips notify_url completely,
here is the code:
< form id="buy-premium" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="<?= $sm['config']['paypal']; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" id="payment-name3" value="<?= $sm['config']['name']; ?> Premium">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="<?= $sm['config']['currency']; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" id="payment-amount3" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="custom" id="payment-custom3" value="">
< input type="hidden" name="notify_url" value="ipnpremium.php">
<input type="hidden" name="return" value="<?= $sm['config']['site_url']; ?>">
< button data-premium-send="30" data-price="1"> pay</button>
</form>
