Hi,
I first signed up to Personal then switched to developer as i needed the paypal integration as it would really help with my new site.
i am getting this error msg in red: This page is unsecured. Do not enter a real credit card number. Use this field only for testing purposes.

I'm new to wordpress and not sure what i am doing wrong and i have looked through the forum but a little confused with it..
can someone please assist?
thank you
You need a SSL if you want to have that message goes away. Basically it is warning people that the form isn't secured and if you put in your details, they won't be encrypted before sending and someone could intercept them.
SSL certificates negate this problem. Talk to your web host if you want more details on SSL certificates, why you need them and how much they cost.
Hope this helps.

ok..
it seems that this came up because i had authorise activated and i didn't need it..
all i wanted was paypal standard add-on, which worked ..
but my question now will be i am creating another form in another section of my website which i would need another paypal option, it seems to only be working on one form and not the other..
i.e. the total is not adding up on my second form which is not taking things to paypal?

so in my case, i have a online services form to book studio mixing service and i need another form for studio booking and would like both to have the option for the client to either pay a deposit or pay in full..
the online services form seems to be working and taking me to paypal page for payment.. whereas the studio booking is not, and i have noticed that in form edit > preview the total amount is not populating [hope that makes sense]
i did also go into paypal options>add new form and entered my paypal email as required.. still nothing..
Can you embed the form and link to it so I can take a look at what is going on?

this is the form preview is this what you are asking? : http://tracklabstudios.com/?gf_page=preview&id=5
Not the preview URL because I would have to be logged in for that. A live page that I can look at things for you.

Can you send admin login details to peralty@rocketgenius.com. I don't think you have your product fields set-up correctly, which is why the total isn't working.
If you log in, you can see I duplicated your form. I am going to send a bug report to the developers, but here's what I did to get it working. I made the product basically nothing, and then added an option field where I put in the various options you had. That way, the product is studio booking and the options are related to that.
It updates the price as it should. Feel free to test it out.
The other way of doing it would be to make four separate products, rather than one product with four prices, as for some reason that wasn't working.
Feel free to apply my changes to your main form, or try the multiple product route. All my best!

Hey David,

We don't inform anyone individually, but we do post changes on our development blog which you can subscribe to.

Apparently, we can avoid this message by using Paypal rm parameter.
No SSL seems mandatory to avoid this message.
Woocommerce has just fixed this issue recentely like that.
David : could you please ask devs to test this solution ?
I have just tested to replace rm parameter setting and it seems to be working good now : no more nagging message.
The devs should now see if it's OK with the rest of the program.
The rm parameter should be set to 2 only when using SSL. If not, set it to 1.
Here is the (basic) modification since don't use SSL at all for now :
Edit gravityformspaypal/paypal.php near line 1753 :
$return_url = "&return=" . urlencode(self::return_url($form["id"], $entry["id"])) . "&rm=1";Regards,
Antoine
I've brought this to the attention of the developers again. Thank you.
The rm PayPal parameter is used to control how the page is sent back from PayPal to your site. With rm=1, PayPal will simply redirect the user to your site, and rm=2 will actually post the data back to the site. We have decided to use rm=2 as that could be useful for some users that need to display that information on their pages. I am not sure why the warning message is being displayed, but that is something specific to some configurations, and not to everybody. We will look for a way to allow the rm parameter to be changed via a hook and also try to find out why the return URL is not using HTTPS for some users.
