    There is no program or module that I am aware of. The reason being that Paypal requires SSL and wcBasic cannot "talk" to paypal on SSL. I was hoping Hector would have added it by now.

    The only thing you could do would be to use Paypal's add to cart buttons, or use a buy now button. The buttons are just javascript and wont mess
    with
    your html at all.

    I am also looking for paypal integration in winserver, would be a great benefit, I think. But I see what Thomas means, a paypal button for a subscription service would work. I will try that.

    Nice thread necro.

    Thomas's suggestion is not the most appropriate approach.

    Best practice would be to select one of many mature Open Source PHP PayPal integration scripts and integrate it with Wildcat! using wcPHP (php_wildcat.dll)

    An alternative would be to update the 2004 vintage wcPayPal code if you
    have a strict requirement to use wcBasic.
