I am taking ownership of the problem from NIcola Urbinati - he did not reply because he was waiting for info from me. The non-working redirect is done via "Forward with masking" option at domain manager level (GoDaddy). Essentially each nameserver request replaces "rpgmeeting.org" with "dreamlordpress.it/rpgmeeting" but keeps the original URL in the browser.

I have redone the exact same thing with the exact same product, and I got a blank page.

FireFox refuses to load the PayPal payment page because it is in an iframe. So the issue is with the "redirect" system you use with your website URL. One solution you could try is to add an attribute target="_blank" to the line: <form id="hikashop_paypal_form" name="hikashop_paypal_form" action="<?php echo $this->payment_params->url;?>" method="post"> in the file plugins/hikashoppayment/paypal/paypal_end.php so that it would open the payment page of PayPal on a new tab, avoiding the issue of having the PayPal payment page inside an iframe.
