How do I get the PayPal Express Checkout button to show?

Merlinpa1969:

If you need help with the paypal let me know,
I need to update the current paypal tutorial anyway might as well put it all in one place

I am having issues on how to show the button, I am trying to use Paypal Express Checkout, I have created an account in paypal and have the needed info to test my paypal using sandbox as my test account but still no luck, can you please help, thanks!

Skip the sandbox part for now. Just use your live account credentials for quick testing ... you can refund the transactions so they don't cost you anything.

Instructions for setting up Express Checkout are here: http://www.zen-cart.com/getpaypal

Thanks DrByte.

Right now the cart is running on a customized theme, I have enabled paypal and still I am not seeing that button, I have checked all options to make this work but unfortunately its not working still, the side boxes, does it having to do with anything on it?

Also another issue I am having is the price to show on the cart, it was showing before but I did something to disable it and now its not showing anymore, the reason I did disable it show for none clients only but now I have decided to put the cart prices, I have enabled all possible options but still to know avail nothing is showing, if I can remember it correctly there was a code I edited to have this price disabled but I forgot it which code and where, can you help me please or guide me thru this as well, really appreciate it.

Youir price display issue is because you have Admin - Configuration - My Store - Store Status set to 1 and/or Admin - Configuration - Customer Details - Customer Shop Status set to 2. I'm not sure if either one would mess with your Paypal buttons or not.

Thanks Stevesh, its working now, it was in customers details that I found the answer, but your advise lead to me it, I can see the checkout button and directs to paypal for payment. Prices are show as well.

Just wondering where do I see a logout button from a logged client, does it close the session after a few minutes?

Hello, Can't help with you last query, but all I can say is that my orders have increased dramatically since I installed PP Express a month ago :smile:. Well worth perservering IMHO!
