Support for SHA-256?

Hello,

We use the OJS Paypal module. Paypal has announced they are soon upgrading to SHA-256 and require that all systems are compatible with SHA-256 to continue accepting payments.

Is this an issue for OJS and if so does OJS support SHA-256? Or is this only an issue for the institutions hosting OJS-based websites?

Hi @Jeff_Landry,

The support required for this is provided at the OpenSSL/PHP/cURL level. No changes are required to the application.
