G'day folks,

Oh the joys of your webmaster being ill...

The output if a "form". Can someone please explain how to insert this in my wso thread?

What am I missing? If I oaste the form, all the code shows up on the preview.

Many thxs once again.

Sal

ps: please say a prayer for my webmaster... this is killing me LOL.

    Use the link version rather than the code version.


    ie:



    [url=http://yourpaypallink.com]To Buy Click Here[/url]

    or

    [url=http://yourpaypallink.com][img]yourbuynowbuttonurl.com[/img][/url]

        Yes...I can't picture it in my head at the moment, but I believe they have it as an option. If not, you can take the URL from the code in the button that does the link to paypal.

        Go to your PayPal account, click on "Merchant Services," then look for the section that says "Create Buttons," then click on the option in there that says "Saved Buttons," then look for the button in question here.

        On the drop-down menu at the right, select "View Code," and you'll see tabs that say "Website" and "Email." Choose the Email tab and you'll see code that looks something like this:

        Code:
        https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=1234567
        Then insert that URL into Forum code as shown earlier in this thread.

          Just go to profile and click on saved buttons.

          Assuming you saved it.

          Once you do that view paypal button code.

          Then you will see a tab with 2 options

          website html or email html

          The email option will be your paypal link

          Hope this helps
