For anyone needing instant provisioning, I found this plugin, check it out: https://code-cats.com/blesta/instant/ Very helpful for digital download purchases, or other things that have no real processing needs, like SEO or Site Speed Audits, just take the money and send the order notification emails.

I am using some Javascript to add the affiliate ID to every link on my main site, so it passes the affiliate ID when they click an order button that links to Blesta. I've tried creating a cookie named affiliate_code, but it seems to have issues across domains or with subdomains, so I'm not sure it's working well yet. I also added a fetch so that the visit counts towards the affiliate's visit count in their stats. Code I add in the header, if anyone wants to try and use it: <script> function getParameterByName(name, url) { if (!url) url = window.location.href; name = name.replace(/[\[\]]/g, '\\$&'); var regex = new RegExp('[?&]' + name + '(=([^&#]*)|&|#|$)'), results = regex.exec(url); if (!results) return null; if (!results[2]) return ''; return decodeURIComponent(results[2].replace(/\+/g, ' ')); } window.addEventListener('load', function() { var anchors = document.getElementsByTagName("a"); let affiliate_id = getParameterByName('a'); if (affiliate_id !== null ) { let blestadomain = '.yourdomain.com'; let daystoexpire = 60; const d = new Date(); d.setTime(d.getTime() + (daystoexpire*24*60*60*1000)); document.cookie = "affiliate_code=" + affiliate_id + "; expires=" + d.toUTCString() + "; ;domain=" + blestadomain + ";path=/"; console.log('Set cookie - affiliate ID: ' + affiliate_id + '; expires: ' + d.toUTCString() + '; domain: ' + blestadomain); for (var i = 0; i < anchors.length; i++) { anchors[i].href = anchors[i].href.indexOf('#') != -1 ? anchors[i].href : anchors[i].href += anchors[i].href.indexOf('?') != -1 ? "&a=" + affiliate_id : "?a=" + affiliate_id; } fetch('https://billing.yourdomain.com/order/forms/a/' + affiliate_id, { mode: "no-cors" }); } }); </script> EDIT: Changed window.load to window.addEventListener because window.load was unreliable on some sites for some reason.

Please add this to the Blesta documentation here: https://docs.blesta.com/display/user/PayPal+Payments+Standard The PayPal API Username, API Password, and API Secret can be found in PayPal, go to Account Settings > API Access > VP/SOAP API integration (Classic). The direct URL is here: https://www.paypal.com/businessprofile/mytools/apiaccess/firstparty/signature Hope this helps others trying to find it as I was, since there are a ton of API options in PayPal now. I realize it's optional but very helpful when trying to manage PayPal payments and want tighter integration so that it handles refunds as needed, without a lot of manual work.

Please add this page link to the Release Notes: 5.1.0 - Support - Confluence (blesta.com) I had to go on Discord to learn about this issue.
