Simple Membership Plugin › Forums › Simple Membership Plugin › Testing at "localhost" – how to verify full membership setup?
Hello,
I have done a full setup based on the documentation including the PayPal sandbox button. When trying to emulate user sign-up (joining) steps, the following steps are performed:
1. User goes to Join page with PayPal button
2. User clicks on PayPal button and it gets redirected to Sandbox
3. When “fake” payment is processed via PayPal sandbox, there are two issues:
a) after payment, there is no redirection back to local site (all is done at localhost setup)
b) obviously, there is no email sent since all is done at localhost machine
What is the best way of testing all of the above at local machine prior to going live?
The PayPal checkout can’t be done in localhost setup. The plugin receives payment notification from PayPal real time for paid membership. This can only happen on a live server/host (not a localhost setup).
