After purchase user has to click to return to site before redirect to ecard form executes. I read earlier post to set permalink to post name. However that seems to be set on my options. How do i get an auto redirect to form after purchase?

That is a PayPal feature, and it redirects after 10 seconds. It can be changed from PayPal options, I think.
Hi there! I’m interested this plugin. I want to know one – is it possible to make a “store” using PayPal and send eCards after payment? Thank you!
If you organize your site using categories and pages and posts, then yes, it’s possible.
Thank you for your reply!
You are welcome.
Hi, I bought the ecard script today and got it working in a minute.
However, there’s one (critical) issue I can’t seem to fix. When I activate ReCaptcha (works) no cards are sent anymore (and the sender is not redirected to the set page).
I tried it also on your demo site http://getbutterfly.com/ecards/ and it looks like you have the same issue there: I do not get any card sent from there.
Maybe there are changes with ReCaptcha you need to look into? Anyway, without this feature I cannot use the script on our public site.
Cheers, Ron.
Anyone? @butterflymedia
Hi, did you try your spam/junk folder? My demo works for me, and sometimes the emails end up in spam, so I suppose it’s the same for you.
Hi There!
Just bought the plugin, awesome work! I do have one question: is there a way to select the E-card by clicking on the image (eCard), as well as the radio button? When you click on an image, it will re-direct to the image source, rather then selecting the card.
Thanks in advance for your response.
Cheers, Tom
Any updates on this matter? Thanks. Cheers, Tom
Hi Tom, sorry for the delay. The behaviour is intended, as one might want to see the larger image.
I will, however, add an option to switch between clickable image and clickable radio button and make it disabled. I will update it by Wednesday.
Hi! Thanks for your response and it would be great if this option would be added to the plugin
! Cheers, Tom
It’s done! Get 2.8 now!
Hello,
Very interested in purchasing your plugin – however, I read about a “premium” version (in this article: http://www.elegantthemes.com/blog/resources/wordpress-christmas-plugins) that allows use with a single end product which users are charged for. Can you point me to where I can find that? Please let me know.
Thanks!
This is the plugin, that guy reviewed it and place a link here.
I see…was confused by “Use, by you or one client, in a single end product which end users are not charged for.” So this works with Paypal in a way that you can charge customers to send the cards?
Yes.
Hi,i can’t activate the plugin . I get this error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home/xxxxxx/public_html/xxxxx/wp-content/plugins/ecards/wp-ecards.php on line 339. thanks for help
Hi, you need to update your PHP version. Ask your hosting server, you need a version higher than 5.2.
I have 5.2.17 on server , is not enough?
5.2 is deprecated and it poses security risks. You should upgrade to at least 5.4.
ok thanks
You’re welcome.
I was just informed that the sent emails have no image attached? I have the latest version and set the options to show the ecard in mail. thanks you can test here: http://www.joyfulturtle.com/free-joy-ecards/
You did not attach an image or the attached image is set as featured. Add another image, separate from your featured image or attach an image to your post/page.
“You did not attach an image”
Of course I did, it shows in the post lol
“the attached image is set as featured”
Yes I need it set as featured so it shows up on the main blog
“Add another image, separate from your featured image or attach an image to your post/page.”
So I have to have two of the same images in the post just to have one show in the email?
thanks 
Yes, you need to have 2 images in order for the eCard to work.
seriously? why? The plugin used to recognize one image in the post, now it has to be two…seems center-intuitive…So I need to go in and edit each post and double up on the image i want to use as an ecard?
Because the featured image could be different from the eCard one, and this happens in 80% of the cases, based on feedback and feature requests. Hence my decision.
This couldn’t be an option? Could you tell me which version I need to revert to in order to avoid this? thanks 
...ok..just so I’m not confused here..what I have to do is double up on the images in the ecard post?...so when someone lands on the page/post they see two of the same images(ecards)?
Usually, the featured image is not visible on the actual post/page (it depends on the theme). The eCard image will be available as a smaller image with a check box to select it.
You could also place all your eCards on one page and they will have a checkbox next to each other (just like in my demo) and you will save a click.
Also, I don’t support older versions.
Im willing to use an older version of the plugin that allows one image…regardless of support. Would you know which version would? It seems hard to believe that more people want two of the same images showing just in order for this to work, thanks for your help so far 
Actually, less and less themes show the featured image on the page itself. The featured image is meant for category views, archive views or index views. I don’t know which old version has that option, but you won’t be able to use it unless you downgrade your WordPress installation. Isn’t there a way to hide the featured image on the eCard pages?
I use the Featured Image option so a thumbnail shows in the category…not on the page. I insert the ecard image into the post/page. For my method they are totally separate things. I will test out removing the featured image and see how it works.
Removing featured image worked. thankfully just quick edits gets everything back to normal.
thanks
You are welcome!
After paying on paypal it just goes back to the screen to pay again, without opening the form to allow them to pay. Thanks
I know why.
You need to set up your permalinks. Go to Settings -> Permalinks and select the “post name” option.
Thanks for responding, appreciate the help. I’ve set permalink to ‘post name’ but now the can’t get the links to the page to work – see… http://hillsideanimalsanctuary.org.uk
I tried copying the link at the top of the page and tried quick link but neither seem to work
There’s something wrong there, your “1 Bale” page seems to be 301 redirected. Do you have any other plugins active? Something cache related or any redirections?
yours is the only active plugin – do you have an email address I can email you login details to see if you can see anything?
it should just link to a post, btw
I set up the two bale page and it seems to work. Maybe I’ll do the 1 bale page again. Thanks 
OK, let me know how it works.
Hopefully last question – I set price to 0.01 for testing on plugins page, but now need to set each page to a different price (£4, £8, £12, etc) but I can’t seem to set the price per page using paypal amount=4[/paypal] – it just seems to take the value in the plugins page for everything?
You are correct. I have submitted a fixed version and it should be up by tonight.
could I get a version of that sooner? we are issuing email with cards on this afternoon!
Send me an email on getbutterfly [at] gmail [dot] com.
thanks – email sent
You’re welcome.
Hi,
When using Paypal, it takes payment and then directs me back to the page, but there is nothing on the page to fill in to send the eCard – just the pay by paypal button still there. Can you help? Also, paid for the eCard theme but get a 404 error when clicking the ‘log in’ button on butterfly Hope you can help. Thanks
It is fixed now, sorry about that. Can you set up a 0.01 eCard and send me the link so I can test it?
Thanks – it seems to be working now since I changed the email settings (also wasn’t receiving emails without paypal function) but changing email seems to have fixed both 
Quick follow up question. I would like to use this plugin to send out certificates that represent buying bales of hay. Is there anyway I can price each card (certificate) separately? (i.e, 1 bale of hay £4 – 2 bales of hay £8, etc) and have them on the same page? Thanks
I’m glad it works now. You should have filled in all information.
You can price each card separately only if they’re on separate pages. You can create a parent page or a parent category and link them all from there.
I am struggling to understand how to use your plugin. I have installed it and added photos and the shortcode to my page but it’ not allowing me to do anything. Your document is very vague, “Adding eCards to a post or a page is accomplished by uploading one or more images for [ecard] shortcode.” The plugin is not finding the photos on the page. It also doesn’t send the email.
I love the idea of the plugin but I can’t figure it out. Thanks
Check the documentation, it is not vague – “Adding eCards to a post or a page is accomplished by uploading one or more images for [ecard] shortcode.” – Upload one or more images to your post/page an add the [ecard] shortcode.
Hi there, I have a lot of images and I need to add pagination. It is possible?
No, you should split your images like 10 or 20 per page or per post.
Hi guy,
Can you send me POT file with new version ? I need translate into Vietnamese language. Also my ecard send to Spam (Junk)
I saw the tips from you, but it’s not work. Do you have any suggest ?
Use the included .po file in the /languages/ folder. Thanks!
1/ Yes, i know that. But .po current is old version. i can’t translate “Send a copy to self”.
2/ My Ecard alway send to Spam, how i can fix that ?
3/ How i can do that like you did ?
The new version – 2.7.1 – is out, it should be live tomorrow morning. You can fix the spam problem by creating a dedicated email address and adding it to your plugin’s Email Options. Also, make sure your server is not blacklisted.
I don’t understand your last question.
Oh, and also, I want the translation .po file when it’s done, so I can add it to the next version. Cheers!
Hi there, thank you for the great plugin. I have problems to add the picture. I have only one picture and I’m receiving the email but without the image. I read all the information and am not sure but the image is not in the email. Could you please explain more, where can i found the problem? Is posiible only to add one picture? Thanks in advance. Regards
Do you have a link?
It is possible, if the image is not the featured image.
Thank you so much for your fast reply. The URL http://tools.frederique-constant.com/ and am using a Page for this, so am not sure how to put a feature image in a page. Thanks in advance
Hi there! any suggestion? Thanks in advance. Regards
I just sent a test eCard and you don’t have a set email address. Configure the plugin and add all the missing info.
??? Are you sure? Becuase all the time i can send and i receive the email BUT without images. ?? All the plugin is configured like your manual. ??? Another suggestion?
This is the only suggestion. Contact me via email and send me your administrator details so I can check.

Hi guy,
1/ I’ve update the new version but it’s have the issue, can you fix that ? Please see attached image.
2/ In Christmas cards, we have 50 images, it’s too long page. Do you have any suggest.
Hi,
1. What version of PHP do you have?
2. I don;t have any suggestion. Split the page into multiple pages with 10 images per page, for example.
Hello, I use Wordpress 4. and purchase the last version of eCards (2.6.1) but it’s not run. For the form is ok with the [ecard] tag, but images not appear for choice on my page: http://www.aqua-photo.fr/galeries/service-gratuit-envois-ecards/
For picture, I put this code in the page:<img src="http://www.aqua-photo.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/DSC3884.jpg" />
The explanations are not clear to propose images for choice, for visitors, in the page or article of the blog.
Thanks by advance for your help,
Read the comments above or read the documentation PDF included in your downloaded ZIP file.
text emails, but no image…where do I put the image I want chosen for the selected eCard?
Did you read the documentation?

Hello,
Just purchased and installed the plugin. It works fine, except that the image doesn’t show up in the email client. I’ve tested in both Outlook and Gmail. http://www.christmasatredeemer.comMy site is hosted at Rackspace and I am using the wp-mail-smtp plugin for sending.
I am at a lost, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, John
I have received the eCard from your site. Try the spam/junk folders, sometimes eCards will end up there.
FYI – I updated the wp-config file define(‘WP_CONTENT_URL’, ‘http://www.christmasatredeemer.com/wp-content'); The reason I wasn’t seeing the image in the email was because the path was relative. Thanks for checking on this for me though.
This is weird, and it’s probably caused by a faulty server configuration. Cheers, anyway.
Just in case someone is having issues with the images not attaching.
I installed Plugin Organizer and disabled plugins until the images showed up.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/plugin-organizer/There shouldn’t be any problems with images not attaching.
