title: Looking for paypal payments tutorial
body: <p>I am looking for a tutorial which will show me how to accept paypal payments as I am not having much luck with the documentation.</p>
  
  <p>In the tutorial, I just need to understand how to capture a unique identifier when the payment has been initiated, and then use the unique identifier to update the database record when payment confirms the payment via ipn.</p>
  
  <p>Does such a tutorial exist?</p>
  
  <p>Basically, I already have the payments working i.e. a user can make a payment and payment can send a notification to the ipn script, but I can't tell which payment paypal has accepted.</p>
