Created page with 'If, after configuring X-Cart to work with a certain PayPal solution, you decide to change the PayPal solution being used (for example, if you wish to switch from Website Payments…'

New page

If, after configuring X-Cart to work with a certain PayPal solution, you decide to change the PayPal solution being used (for example, if you wish to switch from Website Payments Standard to Express Checkout), you can easily do so:

1. Click the Configure link below the existing 'PayPal' entry in the '<u>Payment methods</u>' dialog box.

{{Note1|Note: If the 'Payment methods' dialog box contains two 'PayPal' entries, which happens in stores using Website Payments Pro solution, feel free to use any of the Configure links displayed under these entries.}}

2. From the '<u>Settings</u>' dialog box, select the PayPal solution that you wish to use instead of the one used currently.

3. Adjust the configuration fields for the selected solution (See the section '[[X-Cart:Adjusting PayPal Configuration Settings in X-Cart | Adjusting PayPal Configuration Settings in X-Cart]]').

4. Click the '''Update''' button to save the changes.
