The Easiest Way to Add Paypal Buttons?

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering what the easiest way would be to enter Paypal Buttons on a website. I use WP for all sites, if that helps.

Right now I go to Paypal and then create my button from there and copy the code into the page. This is very time consuming even with the "create a similar button" feature.

I have to create 100's of Buy Now Buttons, some will be for once off payments, and some will be for monthly subscriptions.

If I can at least find a quicker way to create the straight Buy Now buttons then I'll be good as the majority will be for this.

Also, is there a way I can give this to one of my VA's without having her go into my Paypal account?

Regards,

John

    Hey John,

    Im not sure there is with PayPal.

    You are probably better off asking on live chat with Paypal mate

    I think you're doing it the only way it can be done.

    When you create the button inside of PayPal you're also creating a record for the button with them, so that when it is used, they serve up the correct price and configuration. If you tried to make or modify buttons outside of paypal they wouldn't work properly.
    If you have so many you might be better using a simple shopping cart that interfaces with PayPal. There are a few free options for WP which would make the whole process easier once you've done the initial setup.

        No...never used it, but I'd consider it or something like it, if I had to create a hundred buttons. Goodluck

        I found the code below in one of the WSO's I bought a while ago...

        HTML Code:
        https://www.paypal.com/xclick/business=support@WEBSITEDOMAIN.COM&item_name=Backlinks&item_number=01&amount=49&currency_code=USD
        Do you guys think that would work?

        I mean you just link your custom Paypal Button Graphic to the code above. It looks like that could work for straight Buy Now's.

        I did click the link and it goes to Paypal normally and displays the email address, price, product name, etc
