Hi there. Please make sure that you're using the Shortcode format, because the Full format can get corrupted by the WordPress Visual Editor. Also be sure that your PayPal account has been upgraded to Business status. If you're still getting this error, please send us a link to a test page with your PayPal Button Code.

Either that, or paste your Button Code here.

I got it working, the issue was the email address had not been confirmed, so if anyone else gets this issue they need to make sure the email has been confirmed.

Re: The link you have used to enter the PayPal system is inv

I'm having this problem as well. Here's the basic stuff I -know- is okay:

* My paypal account is Business and verified
* To test the user's perspective, I also used my other (personal, verified) account -- been working for years!
* This is my button short code:

[s2Member-PayPal-Button level="1" ccaps="" desc="Bronze" ps="paypal" cc="USD" custom="www.bloomingfaeries.com" tp="0" tt="D" ra="10" rp="1" rt="Y" rr="1" image="default" /]

If you want to check the original page, this is it:

http://www.bloomingfaeries.com/?page_id ... 447cddd9d5

I'm a little distressed because I've spent the last week banging my head over this, and I'm not getting anywhere. I hope someone here can help me.

Best,

Here are some things that could cause this problem:
  • Do you have CKEditor installed? If so, it will corrupt any Shortcode.
  • Are you in SandBox mode? Only enable this if you've provided a Sandbox email address.
  • If you do not have Auto-Return and PDT configured.
  • If you have not configured IPN.

Hi Elizabeth,

Thank you for your kind response. To answer your questions:

* I'm not using CKEditor, no
* I'm not in sandbox mode either
* I indeed configured Auto-Return & PDT as described in the instructions
* IPN is turned on as described in the instructions

Any other thoughts?

Hm.

Maybe I should have checked SOMETHING else: I was entering the right information for my personal account, but I hadn't changed the tab from Business (for my website account) to Personal (to make my test purchase). I need to make a few more checks, but it sounds like THAT might have been the problem.

My apologies for wasting everyone's time. I feel very shee-ee-ee-ee-pish, now... *Ma-a-a-ah*

Jaycee - No need to feel sheepish and you saved some of my time with your contribution to this thread. It guided me to look at some email settings to discover that I had made the DUMBEST mistake possible. So thanks for your help, even if it was inadvertent!
