Any ideas how to achieve extra functions after payment and return from PayPal back to my site?")* Hello, Most of payment methods (Paypal included) is using a server-to-server notification for the order confirmation. So it is not the customer who confirm the order but Paypal itself. So if you are displaying something and performing an "exit", you might interact with the paypal notification, not with the customer return. And thus, you won't see anything displayed on the screen as customer. You will only display that back at the PayPal server who contacts HikaShop to provide the payment notification, and he doesn't care about it and just ignores it. And no, you should only write a plugin of the type "hikashop" and implement the onAfterOrderUpdate trigger. I would first recommend to test your code with the changing of the order status in the backend of HikaShop in the orders listing. Once that's working, it should work the same with the PayPal automatic notifications. Regards, --- Jerome - Obsidev.com HikaMarket & HikaSerial developer / HikaShop core dev team.

I also use the onAfterOrderUpdate($order, $send_email) function - to update some values in a CSV file. Everything works fine if I manually change the order status in the backend. But when PayPal confirms payment and an order status is automatically changed to "Confirmed" the function doesn't seem to trigger at all. Code: public function onAfterOrderUpdate($order, $send_email) { // Only process PayPal orders if ($order->order_payment_id != 1) return; $orderFile = $this->params->get('path') . '/infounit_export_orders.csv'; // Only run if there are orders waiting to be imported if (!is_file($orderFile)) return; $newRows = []; // Read CSV if (($stream = fopen($orderFile, 'r')) !== false) { $index = 0; $indexZahlungsweg; $indexBestellzeichen; while (($row = fgetcsv($stream, 1000, ';')) !== false) { // Look up which column contains the payment information and which column contains the order number if ($index == 0) { $indexZahlungsweg = array_search('Zahlungsweg', $row); $indexBestellzeichen = array_search('Bestellzeichen', $row); } // Use the order number to find the right order if ($row[$indexBestellzeichen] == $order->order_number) { // Update the order status switch ($order->order_status) { case 'confirmed': $row[$indexZahlungsweg] = 'PayPal'; break; case 'cancelled': $row[$indexZahlungsweg] = 'PayPal (storniert!)'; break; case 'created': $row[$indexZahlungsweg] = 'PayPal (nicht bezahlt!)'; break; } } $newRows[] = $row; $index++; } fclose($stream); } // Write back to CSV if (($stream = fopen($orderFile, 'w')) !== false) { foreach($newRows as $row) { fputcsv($stream, $row, ';'); } fclose($stream); } } Where's the issue?

So in onAfterOrderUpdate, the $order variable might not contain all the data of an order. And with payment plugins changing the status of an order, $order usually only contains the order_id and the order_status. So the first line Code: if ($order->order_payment_id != 1) return; of your plugin stops the processing since order_payment_id is not set in that case. You'll want check the data in $order->old->order_payment_id And you'll have the same issue with the order_number in the code after that.
