I installed Paypal framework and subscription module, followed instruction and then proceeded to test the module by registering a new user, but am not presented with a paypal button, or an option to pay for the membership to the site? I double-checked all paypal options, but still dont see where I can enable the site to present the user with a subscription option. How do I do it?

Am I missing something here?

but I think you may have missed this step (on Paypal) and yes, it's hard to spot!

Here's a link to PayPal's information on how to create a subscription button:
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_help-ext&ui_mode=answer&prior...

And here's quoted info from that link:

Q: How do I create a Subscription Button?

A: You can create a PayPal Subscriptions and Recurring Payments button from the Merchant Tools tab.

Here's How:

Log in to your PayPal account.
Click the Merchant Tools tab.
Choose the Subscriptions and Recurring Payments link under the Website Payments heading.
Fill in the details of your subscription (including the Name and Rate).
Click Continue.
Highlight and copy the code.
Paste the code in your website's files.
Click the button to confirm it works.
You have successfully added a Subscriptions and Recurring Payments button to your website.

Note: If you are using, or planning to use, Subscriptions Password Management, Auto Return must be turned off in order to display the PayPal-generated username and password to the buyer.

Once you've generated the code (on Paypal) to display the button, you'll need to insert that code in a static page or a block (or something along those lines) on your Drupal site.

Note: be sure to create subscriptions on Paypal using the same ID #'s that you used in your Drupal paypal subscription module settings.

Hope this helps =)
