Pay pal configuration

I am slugging my way through the PayPal configuration. I am following the document that is downloaded with zencart. Could someone please further explain. Down below where it says to enter an URL. I understand the use of https://www.mysite.com. But when it continues with MY_SHOP do you leave MY_SHOP or do you replace with my domain name.

Right now when I check out I am seeing no payment options.

thanks

Do I need to turn on the Auto-Return Feature in PayPal?

Yes. Enabling the Auto-Return feature in your PayPal account profile will return your customers to your site automatically 5-10 seconds after they've completed payment and finish their transaction in your Zen Cart™ store .

  1. Log into your PayPal account and go to Profile
  2. Click on "Website Payments Preferences"
  3. Change Auto-Return to "On"
  4. Provide a return URL:
    For nonSSL sites:
    http://www.mysite.com/MY_SHOP/index.php?main_page=checkout_process
    or
    For sites with their own SSL Certificates:
    https://www.mysite.com/MY_SHOP/index.php?main_page=checkout_process
    or
    https://mysite.secureserver.net/MY_SHOP/index.php?main_page=checkout_process

Re: Pay pal configuration

In your paypal profile settings, there is an option about Encrypted Payments. Zen Cart does not currently send the required data to make this work. Thus, to use Zen Cart with your PayPal account, you'll need to disable that option in your PayPal profile settings.
