Godaddy + Wordpress + Paypal = Major Headache !

    I'm having trouble finding a good ecommerce plugin to work for my Wordpress site. I'm running my site on Godaddy and are using Paypal as my payment gateway but I continually get an error from Paypal.

    This is the error:
    I've tried using WooCommerce & Jigoshop but I get the same error. The Jigoshop support forum admins told me "... you and 'godaddy' have work to do. ;)"
    (Thanks Jigoshop!!!)

    Check out one of my test sites running WooCommerce and you'll see what I mean when you try to purchase something with Paypal: http://kennelpromotion.com/

    Does anyone have a solution or know of a ecommerce that actually works with Godaddy and Paypal?? :confused:

    Get a different host. Godaddy is fine for domain registrations and SSL certs, but they are downright terrible for hosting. Hostgator and a bunch of other companies offer quality hosting for a few bucks a month. It's definitely worth the cost to host on a decent platform that you actually have some control over.

    Is it about the story of the encrypted button? You would need a ssl certificate on your cart probably or the right paypal account.

    You should write to PayPal support, I think you don't have the right account, that's why they are prohibiting you to get money:(
