Bug Found – Updating Order Information

plugins/wp-paypal/paypal-ipn.php Line 137 to 142 (original)

$updated_post = array(
  'ID' => $post_id,
  'post_title' => $post_id,
  'post_type' => 'wp_paypal_order',
  'post_content' => $post_content
);

I permanently received the message “FAILURE :Order information could not be updated”

After some checks and debugging I found the reason. The address of the dummy person from the sandbox contained some special chars like “ü, ä, ö,” which we are using here in Germany 😀 😉

So I added this here ( esc_textarea( utf8_encode( $post_content ) ) ):

$updated_post = array(
  'ID' => $post_id,
  'post_title' => $post_id,
  'post_type' => 'wp_paypal_order',
  'post_content' => esc_textarea( utf8_encode( $post_content ) )
);

Cheers

Edit: I just checked: If you want, you do not need esc_textarea(). It’s enough just tu use utf8_encode()
