You need to access the site admin which you should be given a link to and a password. All the stuff will be in there.
www.yoursite.co.uk/shop/admin/index.php
Or something like that. ____________________ Nobby the Bastard: How yo tell the difference between the actual japanese and her just screaming because she's had live fish stuck up her arse?

Yeah she gave me that, and I have changed the password already.
BUT
she says
"Right I have removed the sales@jensite.co.uk email from paypal, so you can now add that one, and hopefully it wont need any changing in the store.
At the moment, I also have it set up for credit card payments, if your not doing that, click modules/payments and disable the credit card one.
On the subject of emails, and all that, your hosting control panel is located at
https://www.jensite.co.uk
username: ***
password: *** "
Okay, so *where* do I add that sales email address?
Into my paypal?
I went onto paypal and I think they will make me adjust my long-existing individual/personal account into a business account instead - is this correct?
Why can't I have two?
Do I need to adjust the payment email somewhere on the admin section of the cart/site?
(and while we are about it, is that what is called the "back end"? seems logical seeing as how the "front end" will be what the customers see and buy from, correct?) ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

Yeah, that's the back end of the CMS/Cart.
Go into that and find the "Payment Options" section. ____________________ The Old Apprentice |

If you have control of the email now as it would seem you add that email address to your paypal account or create a paypal account with that email and you don't need to make changes to the site.
The payments go to your paypal account.

How can I tell if I have control of that email account?
I have :
1. Registered on godaddy and ticked some boxes but I have no idea why I had to do that.
2. Transferred the domain name from her to me on 123-Reg (at least I kind of knew what I was doing there).
3. Received an email from a girl who runs "the hosting company" telling me that its all gone thru (whatever it all is).
But I am not sure where to look for emails.
So ... I could open a brand new paypal account JUST in the new email of sales@jensite.co.uk ?
Surely that is a lot of extra faffing with all that account verification hoo-ha, but is it worthwhile to keep a private paypal account separate from a business one? ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

You can add any email address to a PayPal account. I could add sales@mysite.co.uk and payments@mysite.co.uk to the same PayPal account by logging in to PP and setting that up.
Your email addresses are attached to your web hosting account. You can create as many as you need from the hosting control panel. |

OK well I'm not up to jumping thru any more hoops than I have to, cos right now its all I can do to figure out how to get the money to go into my Paypal
Its possible I may have to do that at some point, though, so I have tagged in my Wiki/Excel notes that I have to look into the PCI thing.
I'm sure this will get easier, once I know WT-actual-F I am doing
I'll be happier once I have the hang of getting round in the guts of the thing, cos I am not as impressed with the content as I thought I would be and might have to go searching for better content, so as to get motivated to do better marketing/blog/social network blurb.
But this will do : keeps me amused, I suppose. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

Yes I can get in on the admin page.
But for some reason I am having trouble getting Paypal to accept the sales@jensite.co.uk email address (it says you can have up to 7) ... so two days later I still can't work out how to get the money to go to me. Paypal allegedly keep sending me emails to confirm but there is nowhere to click to confirm the new email address, only a "if you did not send this email, or if you wish to contact our customer services, click here" ... and I am very twitchy about clicking Paypal emails at the best of times.
Grrrr, can't move on until the money is sorted. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

From the login you need to select 'modules' then 'payment'
Then you need to select 'PayPal Express Checkout' and this will give you a box with instructions on setting up paypal. it uses an api system for which you need to log into your paypal account to get the following
API Signature -- Username
Looks like an email address
API Signature -- Password
randomness
API Signature -- Signature Code
more randomness
Enter these and it all works. just like that. ____________________ Nobby the Bastard: How yo tell the difference between the actual japanese and her just screaming because she's had live fish stuck up her arse?
