I'm testing out the trial version, if it works I 'll go ahead and buy it, but... When I purchase a subscription, make my payment to through paypal, and then get directed back to the site, no subsription payment is registered. In the Admin it lists the enty but has payment down as not completed. Looking at the accepted payment processors it lists paypal as US versions and not the UK, is this the problem? When you sign up to paypal.com it asks for the country of residence... Also I really wish some one could have updated the online manual information to state that in the current version... http://www.yoursite.com/amember/plugins/payment/paypal/ipn.php ...does not exist, I would have saved myself a few hours of hair pulling here!
URL in the manual will be fixed, but it is not used anyway. Regarding your problem - there could be numerous reasons for this. Could you send aMember CP login info to our helpdesk? https://www.amember.com/support/
Ah no I see the problem now, I've just found the Error/Debug Log, problem being that I wanted to sell the subsripction in USD but my UK PayPal account is in GBP. Does this mean I can only sell a subscription through PayPal in the currency my PayPal account is in?

You should configure your PayPal account settings to automatically accept payments in other currency. Have a look to settings.
Ah got it. In my my PayPal profile I need to go to "Payment Receiving Preferences" and from here I change a setting to automatically accept payments from different currencies. Cheers Alex
You can use the relevant option to use PayPal to accept payments in U.S. Dollars, Australian Dollars, Euros,Pounds Sterling, and Yen etc. If you decide to use more than one currency, you can manage all of your currencies from a single PayPal account.
