Pro Sites vs PayPal
2 questions
The Paypal subscription button just reloading the site instead of opening the checkout.
And is it possible to allow customers choose packages before choosing name?

Hiya kwadwo,
I'm afraid there's not really an easy way to choose the subscription plan before creating the site (or choosing the site name). It has a lot to do with the way WordPress works. I think it could be done, though it'd take a good amount of custom work to do so.
The PayPal button reloading doesn't sound right. Could you let me know how your gateway options are set? Are you using PayPal Pro and do you have an SSL cert setup for that if so?
Paypal: oh I forgot to show the screenshot: http://cl.ly/2E3T2f463G2C3Z3f3g2B
I'm using Paypal sandbox to test this with - and when I go live i made the free upgrade to a Premier user/business (I doesn't recall setting SSL cert up).

Greetings kwadwo :-)
sir there is a distinct difference between Premier and Business accounts.
In addition, I believe as memory recalls - that PayPal issues a certificate of some sort for use with the Website Pro option.
