Thank you very much for the assistance.

The firewall was blocking bad query strings and XSS attacks. Not sure which one caused the problem but both are deactivated and now the Stripe process works. However, there is still a redirect issue.

Since that is settled, I assumed that Paypal would work as planned, but it doesn’t.

What happens is that the payment is made and then the Paypal screen remains blank. It doesn’t redirect anywhere. It stays on a white screen on the Paypal site. I tried on a computer and on a phone.

An email is received about the Paypal subscription via Paypal, but there are no emails sent about the forum. There is no way for a user to proceed from paying to registering for the forum.

I am testing using the “Guest” feature since I don’t have another Paypal account to login to.

IPN is active. It points to the homepage.

Please advise on what needs to be checked so that I can correct this. Thank you.

Thank you for the reply.

Deactivating the SWPM Full Page Protection plugin gives the same result – 403 forbidden.

Hosting disabled ModSecurity and the same result happened – 403 forbidden

Does this plugin need XMLRPC access enabled in order to create the registration pages?
