Problems with product description

Hi there everyone.
I have recently purchased a zen cart made website and have been populating it with goods.

To test the whole purchase process I have bought something from myself but when I see the PayPal notification the description contain the message I created about my site and the item number says "store receipt".

Obviously I have done something wrong but cannot see where I would put the correct description for each item on the product page.

As I have several similar priced items I cannot rely on the price to give me a clue as to what was bought. Also the customer needs to see what it was that they bought.

Any help / guidance / words appreciated.
regards Colin

Re: Problems with product description

That's not a description problem, it's a Paypal thing. As I understand it, Paypal IPN doesn't send the line item details, but Paypal Express does.

The order should be in your database, though.
