Ok i did this but i have a strange issue. It seems to return me to a URL that i cant find anywhere on my account?   So i disabled Auto return and return URL to test but after a payment it takes me back to a URL that i must have set in the past somewhere.   Now i did have this working a few months ago and if i remember correctly I needed the return URL to contain parameters so i specified the value rm=2 but no matter what i do it takes me back to a test URL i must have set in the past.   Not sure if someone (you are listed as a moderator) can take a look at my account as i have tried switching all sorts off/on?   Oh i dont think its something ive set at my end as i replaced all values with unique values so i could see where i was going wrong but nothing is sent to PP to redirect back to this test URL. ...

Im using a custom form to send to Paypal and take payment. At present I am using https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr for sandbox and https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr for live payments.   The PayPal site is reached, users can make a payment and are returned back to my site.   If i visit https://tlstest.paypal.com/ in a browser from the server where my site is hosted i see PayPal_Connection_OK so this means to me the server is setup but i dont know if any further coding/configuration is required when the form leaves my site to go to paypal to take payments?   Do i need to make any further changes to ensure all is setup for TLS 1.2? ...

Pretty bad and lame from paypal that they dont even bother updating the status or providing more info about the sudden 500 status errors. I would have to consider using PP in future as this type of service is just not acceptable. ... View more
