Hi,
This is my first time using AbanteCart, I spent 2 days looking through all the available carts and settled for this one. I have successfully installed the software, tinkered with the design fairly easily to suit my site and configured most of it. I'm very impressed so far except i can't get it to do the one thing it needs to do and that's except just paypal payments.
I have gone to the Extensions/payments section and enabled the paypal extension (default_pp_standart) but when i go in to edit the paypal settings there are some things I can't change.
Store: default (that's fine)
Status: (is on)
E-Mail: (i've entered the email i've got registered with my paypal account)
Test Mode: (there's nothing in this box and no options to select!)
Order Status: (I've set to processing)
Transaction Method: (again, no options or anything)
Location: (This is stuck on USA - but I'm in the UK)
I have enabled Royal Mail for shipping although i haven't looked into that side of it yet to get that working, i wanted to get the paypal working first.
When i do a test purchase it bypasses paypal and just says thanks your order is being processed, or something like that.
I really like AbanteCart and i want to stick with it for this and future projects but i have to be able to get this paypal problem sorted. I'm sure it's just me and there's something obvious i'm not doing. The other thing is I haven't actually logged into my paypal account at all for this, do i need to do that at all to get paypal linked to the website?
Hope you can help!
