Hi,
I am a newbie gradually learning more every day, so any help will be most appreciated. I've finished adding products to my store, set up my Paypal account.. & yet I come to this section on the Admin page in the configuratio0n process & none of it makes sense to me!
I click on Modules, & install 2 Paypal payment systems (can't remember exactly what they're called, but I signed up for a business account, so I didn't install the standard account setting on list). After clicking on edit & looking at all the options I was completely baffled! Apart from my Paypal email & password, I don't know what to put for 'Merchant Login ID', 'Partner', etc. And it doesn't seem right to me to enter my Paypal password!
I wouldn't post this unless I was completely stuck. Thanx for readin!

Yes, I've set up a Merchant/Business account. I just don't recognise any of the configurations required!? Thanx for reply.

That might seem like a minor step but it makes all of the difference. You need to know what payment module you are using. It sounds like you are using the standard paypal module, in which case a Merchant ID is not required so my guess is that you selected the wrong module to install.
