SJ77 Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Didn't this setting used to involved going to Paypal and getting one number? Now there is all kinds ot confusing language and many steps. Client ID etc etc. I think there should be a simple guide to aid in walking through this difficult process.
SJ77 Posted January 10, 2016 Author Posted January 10, 2016 like really? We have to do all of this just to sell a simple banner ad? Paypal is getting as bad as the government with these ridiculous forms.

If using downloads app that pipes though nexus, then yes. I belive IP.Downloads allows this.

Profit? Thank you so much for all of the screen shots. I got up to step 4 but couldn't find live client ID. I could only find sandbox. I tried to use sandbox and triggered error in my ACP. Do you know where the live is? oh, and what do I put for a return URL? Edit: I found the live.. : There was a switch up there. I feel like a dullard now. I am still not sure about return URL because I don't know if IPB has a custom thank you page or not.
