 +===== Using correct Site URL =====
 +
 +Within both CCBill and PayPal Billing plugin configuration guides you are asked to use your site URL. 
 +
 +PayPal example: ​ The IPN URL should be: http://​sitename.com/​billing-paypal/​order/​notify
 +
 +CCBill example: ​ Click the Advanced link in the menu on the left and enter your website URL. For example: http://​www.my-sitename.com/​billing_ccbill/​order/​postback/ ​
 +
 +Using correct site URL is very important. Your site URL might or might not contain "​www"​ part. If you are not sure what your site URL is make sure to check this within the source code: 
 +
 +  * Open ow_includes/​config.php file via FTP or your Control Panel
 +  * Find following line: define('​OW_URL_HOME',​ '​http://​your_URL_will_be_here/'​);​
 +
 +This is your site URL. When configuring your payment gateway account make sure to use the exact same URL as you see in your config.php.  ​
 +
 +====== Checking Database====== ​
 +
 +SkaDateX stores available payment related data in ow_base_log database table. This includes both successfull transactions and ones that failed due incorrect configruations of plugin/​gateway account. ​
 +
 +  * Open ow_base_log table
 +  * Find the entry related to the payment you are interested in.
 +  * Check what you have under "​message"​ column for found entry. ​
 +
 +If payment is processed successfully you will see payment data there: ​
