Hi,
I have been cruising thru the post and thought I saw somewhere how to put your songs or CD's on your page to sell with payments thru pay pal. I have gone back to look for the post on how to do this and cannot find it. Can some one please fill me in.

Thanks,
Tammie

Tammie,

You will use the "ADD ITEM" button in the page manager and fill in the following fields:

ITEM NAME: (Can be anything you like, album 1, band t-shirt, etc. This is the item name that will show when you recieve a payment, so make sure it's accurate, especially if you are selling more than one item!)

ITEM DESCRIPTION: (This describes the item for potential buyers viewing your online store. Visitors will use this description, and the quality of the sample songs, to make a buying choice. It should sound professional!)

ITEM COST: (Important, don't use $, just input a dollar amount. For example 10.00 )

PAYMENT ITEM EMAIL: (This MUST be a valid PAYPAL address or your payment will not work! Make sure you use an ACTIVE email address that you have registered with paypal)

PAYPAL ITEM NUMBER: (This is only important if you want it to be. It is only a descriptor to help you identify your item if you are selling more than one thing. If you are only selling one album, you can use 1 or 001 or anything else you like)

ITEM CURRENCY: (Pick your currency, the default is US Dollars)

UPLOAD ITEM IMAGE: (I would HIGHLY recommend that you upload an image. If the item you are selling is a product, you should use a picture of the product. If the item is an ALBUM, I would use either the album cover OR any other image meaningful to the music.)

That's it! Just repeat this process for each item you would like to offer!

MAKE SURE YOU TEST YOUR ITEM after setting it up. To test your item, just visit your on-line store and press the "buy now" link. If this DOES NOT take you to a PAYPAL purchase page with YOUR email address, go back to the page manager and choose "MODIFY ITEM" to fix it!

Note.....Not all themes have an on-line store. You can use the "HTML THEMES" button in the page manager to choose a theme with an on-line store.

Hope this helps!

Ron
