Reading through the module page and doc's I've found a lot of broken links and a lot of terminology that is outdated.
Even though the module page states PayPal products don't match the modules names (since 2012!) it's still very confusing to do a search and replace for everything you read.
Updating the docs is I think only possible if you have in-depth knowledge of the module and PayPal's product line.
For example the "PayPal Express Checkout", the official current docs:
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/integration/direct/express-checkout/in...
No where does it state anything about "API username", "API password" or "Signature". These are only used in "NVP/SOAP API endpoints" as does this module.
But on the paypal dashboard you can try to create a NVP/SOAP API app but you get redirected to a page saying that the portal is closed per dec 1st '17 and on other pages you find "This integration method is Deprecated as of January 1, 2017". So I can't tell if PayPal's current implementation of the Express Checkout even works with the current module.
I've had similar problems testing PayPal Payments Pro and with the docs for PayPal Payments Advanced.
