access account api build built-in button cart checkout cms code codes com config configure description ecommerce essentially express features field html integration issues listings manage password pasting payment paypal paypal-pro pro procedure product regarding review robin settings setup signature site store template templated username value website

Hello - i'm trying to setup a store using zencart 1.38 with a template monster template. I'm having some issues in the payment modules. To use PayPal Website Payments Pro I have to setup and configure PayPal Express Checkout first. In the config it's asking me for an "API Signature -- Username" and a "API Signature -- Password". For the "API Signature -- Username" I'm using "robin_api1.19.5degs.com". In my paypal account I see nothing regarding an "API Signature -- Password"....so i'm not sure what to use there. the zencart config for this field says "The API Password from your PayPal API Signature settings under *API Access*. This value is a 16-character code and is case-sensitive." Is this password specific to me or to the paypal API? if it's to the API, where would I find it?


Many thanks,

Josh

If you are using E-junkie with Zencart, then you would not be using any of Zencart's own built-in cart/payment/eCommerce features. Essentially you would be using Zencart only as a CMS to build a templated site and manage your product listings, so you would be pasting your E-junkie cart button HTML codes into the product description section for each product.

As such, you should not need to configure any PayPal Pro settings regarding Zencart's settings. For E-junkie settings, please review our PayPal Pro integration procedure here:
