I keep reading that it's possible to setup paypal recurring payments with drupal/ubercart, but I can't find the settings to do so. Right now my products are all configure to use PayPal Website Payments Standard and I don't see any options to add recurring payments to select products. Please advise.
jp, by default the paypal module does not come with that option.
You may want to try the paypal buttons module for this functionality.
or uc_recurring
jp's request was specifically for a subscription solution based on paypal web payments standard.
I recommend uc_paypal_buttons over uc_recurring for the following reasons:
1. uc_recurring is in a beta development phase while uc_paypal_buttons is stable
2. uc_paypal_buttons does exactly what he requires out of the box where as uc_recurring requires further manipulation to get it working with paypal.
3. uc_paypal_buttons is easier to use both from a user perspective and a developer perspective. (uc_paypal_buttons has a simple rest api to help with module integration)
I have nothing to do with either project that would bias me. I've tried both and currently uc_paypal_buttons is easier to use, and stable. If you're looking to use Authorize.net for processing then you'd look to uc_recurring payments.
