    Default Error code 26 invalid vendor

    When anyone tries making a payment they get the following message -
    We were not able to process your order. Please select an alternate payment method, or contact the store owner for assistance. (26 )

    The buyer also gets an email saying "invalid vendor"... can anyone help as at the moment we can only take normal paypal payments and not proper credit card transactions.

    Cheers

    "invalid vendor" sounds like you're using an invalid username in your paypal account settings

    What paypal module are you using?

    i meant ... in Zen cart, which paypal payment module(s) are you using?

    oh, and did you choose "sandbox" or "live"? I've read that using sandbox mode with non-sandbox settings (username etc) can cause problems

    Why are you using all of them?

    I'm guessing that you haven't entered the correct account security information in your paypal settings
