    Trying to setup the IPN setting for a Paypal Business account (not premier), but the video tutorial
    here http://www.amember.com/p/video/#paypalsetup and the document here http://www.amember.com/docs/Payment/PaypalPro , show screens not currently on the Paypal business acount.

    I suspect paypal has upgraded their site since either of these were produced.

    In trying to find something similar to what's in the instructions, I've went through every tool in paypal:

    Paypal home:

    Tools:

    Above, "Paypal buttons" has nothing to do with the IPN settings, just generating html. Another suspect was
    "Paypal here", but this is a mobile app they are trying to get you to buy.

    I notice paypal pro corresponds to this document http://www.amember.com/docs/Payment/PaypalPro .
    But is this necessary just to setup the IPN settings?

    Thanks - any help appreciated.

    I finally figures this out. Here is the solution for anyone else going through this:

    1) Login to Paypal
    2) click little head (with no text) in upper right
    3) Click profile and settings.
    4) Click "my selling tools" third from top on left
    5) proceed as in the video tutorial http://www.amember.com/p/video/#paypalsetup
