    Hiya,

    1) I setup paypal integration exactly the way given in the amember manual. But when I try to signup, it takes me to the paypal page and everytime I log in, paypal immediately tells me - it could not go ahead with the transaction and that if I was paying someone, I should check my mails after 30 minutes and it asks me to restart the whole payment process. This is happening with all paypal accounts.

    My questions is do I need to setup anything in paypal besides whats mentioned at http://manual.amember.com/PayPal_Standart_Plugin_Configuration

    2) Since the transactions falls through at paypal, when i try to signup in amember again, it tells me this email address already exists and asks me to login. But obviously there is no login so I am stuck and have to use another email address. What do I do about this?

    1) can't say if you got the integration right or not without looking in your site...

    2) You can login via the login form /amember/login.php
    or /amember/member.php
    and you will then be able to order from the members page.

    Just did a test run amember 3.1.4
    Price:10
    Duration: 3 months
    Trial 0
    Duration: 7 days
    Recurring: checked


    Worked :) So it looks like the newest version can handle 0 trials with set period of 3 mos.

    Hey David,

    What if it's not a recurring subscription. So a free trial for say 7 days, and then a one-time payment for a lifetime subscription. That's what seems to be tripping me up.

    Thanks!
