Paypal buttons integration - paypal

Good morning, i have to create a landing page that gives the possibility to the user to book an pay with paypal buttons a limited training course.
Is the a way to make the paypal button interact?
I know that it is the possibility to set a stocking for the single product, but what i need to know is if it is possible to create a grouped product that change the stocking values of the others.
(example: if i buy the product a that has a 25 pieces stock, it will low the stock of the product b too)
thanks

Managing PayPal Donations, Add to Cart and Subscription using single request

I am using website payments standard and I have the following requirement. Please let me know if a solution is available for website payments standard.
I already have subscriptions integrated to my website. I would like to have a feature that enables the user to donate a dynamic amount along with the subscription. For that, I plan to add an additional text field for the amount in my payment page. I would like to know if it is possible to manage both donations and subscriptions in the same request.
Let me be more clear about the requirement.
When the user clicks a custom subscribe button, a page with a text field to enter a donation amount will be displayed. Suppose, the user enters a random amount. The user will then click the PayPal subscribe button and will be taken to the PayPal site for the payment. Both the subscription and donation have to be managed separately so that I can easily identify which one is subscription fee and which one is donated amount by looking into the PayPal statements.
Please let me know if this is possible with website payments standard. If not, can you please help me how to achieve this?
My additional requirements are:
I need to combine Add to cart button and Donations too.
I would like to manage subscriptions just like Add to cart feature. i.e., Paying for multiple subscriptions at once.
I am looking forward to your reply.
Is not possible to make both "Donations" and "subscriptions" in a single payment. Unless you treat the donation as an additional amount for your subscriptions initial payment.

PayPal "Buy Now" Link?

I see in PayPal how to make a Buy Now button. However, the code behind that is a form that POST to PayPal. Is there a way to create a link to a PayPal payment page with all of the relevant information (e.g. item name, price, custom customer fields to request, discount coupon field, etc.)? I want to be able to include this link in emails/SMS. I only have one item to sell and it's for a certain price, unless a valid discount coupon is applied, then it's for a set lower price.
I will want to put a Buy Now button on my site to do the same thing, but I do need a link I can email/SMS as well. Is there a way to do this?
Yes, PayPal website payments standard URLs work via either GET or POST, so you can take the same variables and put them in the URL string. So for example:
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=foo#yourcompanyhere.com
However, I'm not sure if this is an "offical" feature; while it has worked for at least the last dozen years so I would be comfortable using it in an email, I would recommend keeping your primary website integration using form posts.

Query paypal stock management to show on my website for customers

Is it possible to have an active automatic stock counter on my website (for each item drop down box), that queries from my paypal button's stock inventory?
So if someone buys, the stock counter for that particular item goes down automatically, like it does on paypal's end. But I want it to be shown on my website for my customers to see how much stock is actually left. Is this possible with paypal?
I'd check the BMGetButtonDetails API and see if it'll provide it for you.

PayPal Adaptive Parallel Payments

Ok here goes:
Hypothetical: Let's say I'm selling digital content online for various freelance artists. The artists submit thier content to my site and I make them available to the public for a fee.
A customer enters the site to buy access to the content. Once the customer pays thru PayPal the payment is automatically split between my business (reciever 1) and the artist (reciever 2) through the use of Parallel Adaptive Payments.
Question: Is it possible to assign some type of "artist ID" to each submitted content that links that artist's content to thier PayPal account so that they are secured payment for each sale while still maintaining payment to the business from each split payment transaction? Keep in mind there will be multiple artists with each artist submitting multiple pieces of content.
I hope I didn't make this more complicated than what it is but if anyone can help with this it would be appreciated. Thanks!
I am not sure I completely understand your question. However, you could pass over a an id in one of the available variables such as item id, custom or etc. If you are trying to get some type of identifier back on your end.

Paypal - allowing customer to enter value on buy now button

My question is this - is there any way to create a paypal button which allows the customer to enter the value of the amount they wish to pay. I do not wish to use a 'donate' button because it is not a donation situation - it is a sale of a product.
Example: I have an ethically produced environmentally friendly product. The base price will be $10.00 (for example), but I would ask and allow people to pay/contribute more if they wanted to in support of the ethical/environmental aspect of the product.
So one customer might want to pay $11 while another might want to pay $13.
Is it possible to allow this to happen with any type of paypal button - excluding the donate button.
Thanks

Yes, this is possible, but what you'd need to do is have a system by which they would enter their price on your website (and obviously you can check it's >=$10) and once they've entered a price, you would create the button code using the price they've specified.
