I currently using website payments standard with PayPal and it works fine. I use a lot of the ipn functions.
I am looking to migrate to pro so I can control the checkout experience.
I was reading https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/paypal-payments-pro/integration-guide/WPWebsitePaymentsPro/
But cannot seem to tell if ipn will still work with the pro version.
If so how to I set item_name and such?
Yes IPN still works with the PayPal Pro too . You will get the IPN for credit card payments in the same way as you get for PayPal transactions . For showing the item details you need to pass the line item details while submitting the transaction . You can refer the API docs here :
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/api/merchant/DoDirectPayment_API_Operation_NVP/
And below is a sample request :
