Virtuemart 2.0 paypal show order number instead of item title

[gigsakos]

Hello!!
I was upgrade from virtuemart 119 to 2.0 and everything set up and it works like a champ except the following:

When in the website checking out with virtuemart...it goes to paypal, well on that initial paypal screen, it only passes over the "Order Number: x" as the description, everything else is fine.  How do I get the Item Name instead of the Order Number on paypal ckeckout website?
thanks!!

i've also attach an image to show the problem...

Hi,

Hello again and thanks for your reply!!
but is there anyway buyers to check their order with the order number? because with this way, on paypal website buyers are don't known for what are they pay...also on paypal payment history the items name are not visible anywhere...so many of the buyers are suspicious and they afraid to confirm the order...

thanks!!

I did not see this post when i searched for it, but glad to see an attempt to fix the problem.

Has anyone figured out how to show product details on paypal instead of the invoice number like in VM1  ?

Alatak, please forgive our insistence but your answer seems ambiguous to the posters in this thread including myself.

Product descriptions missing from Payal invoice is quite unprofessional.

Thanks in advance for anyone who may post the answer.

To clarify, this is what we are looking for:
PAYPAL INVOICE WITH PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

In VM1 we could pass the product descriptions to the paypal invoice.

In VM 2, under description in the paypal invoice/reciept email, it only shows the ORDER NUMBER to the seller.
The invoice ID is shown at the bottom of the paypal invoice anyway so this is redundant, it needs to show the list of products purchased instead.

How to show the purchased product descriptions in the paypal transaction emails?

Anyway to do this in VM 2  ?

Have you fixed this yet?, I have the same problem on VM2 but not on VM1, the cart details do not appear at Paypal, just an order number and total.
I think on VM1 you could see the code that it sent to Paypal in the VM back end, I can't see this in VM2

Hello, has anyone solved this ?

The PayPal Express Checkout plugin will pass item names to PayPal.

It can be used as a replacement for the standard PayPal plugin.

It produces an order summary like the image below.
