Potential issues

• At the end of the checkout, the plugin will display the text "Please select a payment method:" with, below it, one button for each funding method available to the customer based on his situation, yours, and what fundings you enabled/disabled in the payment method. If no buttons shows up there, you should open the console of your browser on that page. It should contain some javascript error message(s) which will point at the problem. It could be an error from another extension, or your template preventing the browser from initializing PayPal's javascript. But it could also be the sandbox mode being turned on for a live account, or vice-versa, or some other kind of issue.
• Supposing that the buttons are displayed, if you click on the "PayPal" button and you don't get the PayPal payment popup, or you get a blank popup on top of the normal popup, it's likely you have a problem with the Cross Origin Opener Policy of your website. You need to configure your HTTP headers plugin, via the Joomla plugins manager and change its "Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy" setting to allow for it.
• If you get an error with the text "invoice id already used" it means that you already used your PayPal account with another ecommerce website and it used the same order ids as HikaShop. You can either modify the auto_increment value of the hikashop_order table in your PHPMyAdmin to start order ids to a big number which hasn't been used by your other website, or you can navigate to https://www.paypal.com/businessmanage/preferences/payments and under "Block accidental payments" select "No, allow multiple payments per invoice ID"
