PayPal Code?

[judemac]

Hi,

I have a PayPal account set up and verified. I'm trying to add PayPal as the payment method on my Virtue Mart shop.
I go to Payment Method Form and select Active - then for Method I type in PayPal, I'm then asked for a 'Code' - this is what I'm after!  Where do I find this code? If I go on and put in ps_paypal and continue I get an error message needing the'Code'.

Where do I locate this 'code' is it in my PayPal account, is it a VM code, what? In configuration I only have a blank page, so I'm stuck looking for this.

Probably a simple solution, but only when you know how

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, in fact I had already read that thread and several others, which prompted me to post my question, as I couldn't find an answer. I'd gone over it so many times I was blinded to what I was doing wrong.

The problem was what  I was doing! Instead of going to 'Store' and clicking on Payment Method list which automatically places PP in to the Code text box. I went to Store and Add Payment Method, this brings up 'Code' as a blank as well as a blank configuration page. Hence - no PP in 'Code' and without that I couldn't progress.

I discovered a tutorial on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kmPY36OjWE&feature=PlayList&p=8E78F3A20A9BD53D&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=7 this highlighted where I was going wrong.

Newbie error and another classic 'in haste' action, still maybe posting my mistake will help others to avoid it
