    Hi All,

    I've setup and used Amember on a few projects already but can't seem to find the correct documentation for setting up Paypal properly.

    I'm trying to use paypal_r plugin (recurring product) and am lead to http://manual.amember.com/PayPal_Standart_Plugin_Configuration as the current "Up to date instructions."

    Surely, that can't be right. I figured out the IPN info but what are the correct settings for Website Payment Preferences (like return url, etc.)

    I know there must be more detailed documentation I'm missing.

    Thanks.

    -Josh

    The page at
    http://manual.amember.com/PayPal_Standart_Plugin_Configuration
    contains all the basic info including auto return settings eg:
    Click on Website Payment Preferences link in the Selling Preferences column
    * Auto Return for Website Payments - keep empty or keep default value

    What are you missing?

    Downgrading from PayPal Pro

    From the setup guide:

    "Click on Website Payment Preferences link in the Selling Preferences column"

    I can't find the Website Payment Preferences

    Do I have to turn off PayPal Pro first?

    Moved from Selling preferences to Hosted payment settings

    Had to call them to find out, it's in the left column at the bottom (off my notebook screen).
