Re: PayPal plugin setup [Resolved]

1) I do not understand the instructions for the PayPal "URL". In the plugin documentation, the image shows "PayPal API URL" however this simply shows as "URL" in my plugin administration panel (see attached image).

2) What URL is supposed to be inserted in this field? I have created a "Buy Now" button in my PayPal account, does this <form> </form> code go here or some other URL?

No, you do not need to make a button at all.

I am also confused by this. When my customer goes to the PayPal secure site to checkout, all that shows in the top left hand corner is my email address. I want a logo and my company name there. How do I do that? Sue

Sue, that will be done in Paypal.. I am not sure, as it has been a long time but you can use Paypal's Help for "adding logo"

If I don't have to make a button then what initializes the PayPal interface?

Left click on the name > Right side URL should be = www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr

Enternt your paypal email..

Select Currency..
SAVE & CLOSE

Then "PUBLISH IT"

jhcorsair, I am calling it a night soon...did you get your paypal working?

Jim

For the company name instead of the email in PayPal, that will change automatically when you upgrade your paypal account to the business level.

Apologies for the late response ....... been getting ready for hurricane Sandy.

It was unclear to me that this line (The default URL for the production is: www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr ) was the url to use. It's now working fine!

HikaShop is a fantastic plugin!

Happy Hurricane and good luck down there. Also, could you rename [RESOLVED] > PayPal plugin setup for topic please? That way, people with same problem/search will have a clue.

Thanks...Jim
