Then once you are in the Payment Methods you will want to scroll down to choose the option that is labeled
"accept credit cards and/or other processing methods"
Once you are there it will give you a drop down box of different gateways; go ahead and select the version of Authorize.net you'd like
-Once you have reached the next page you'll want to go ahead and fill out the required information;

[it would be suggested to put "password"]
-Password: this is your password from auth.net

-Auth Type: this is also for your preference, by default it does suggest to use Auth-capture
-Enable Cardinal Centinel: if your gateway supports this you would select "Yes"
-You can customize which credit cards you would like to have accepted.
DO NOT ENABLE CREDiT CARDS THAT ARE NOT ASSOCiATED WiTH YOUR AUTHORiZE.NET ACCOUNT, THiS WiLL ONLY CAUSE
CONFUSiON WITH YOUR CUSTOMERS !!
