    Are you referring the API information are in your Paypal account, or the place in Zen Cart that you need to enter that API information (Admin > Modules > Payment?

    Yes, referring to Article 3: Setup API Access in Paypal account. Can't locate the definition top navigation area under Profile.

    It means you've got Debug Logging enabled within the module.

    Hi Dr Byte
    Yes, I activate under Debug Mode to Log and Email, does it related to (Debug)? or should I ignore it. But under the Payment Modules>Oder Status it's still Processing now....

    Let me guess, you're thinking that "Processing" there means the system is doing something to activate your Paypal account?
    That's *incorrect*.

    The word "Processing" there, is ONLY telling you what status you've configured that module to assign to NEW ORDERS that get paid for when using that module. It has *nothing* to do with you needing to wait for anything before the module will work.
