Inserting PayPal button with FCKEditor??

6 replies
Hmmm seem to be stuck, using that editor I did my gifs fine on the site, and it fixed a lot of issues I was having with the regular wp editor. However I seem to be completely stuck on figuring out how to add my paypal buttons through it, I've tried the image uploading, link etc. Doesn't work :confused:

Must be something simple I'm missing

    ok I fixed it by disabling fckeditor, and using html to do the buttons. Then reactivating it, and it shows fine.

    But is there a way to do it directly in fckeditor on wordpress? I even tried using the email url and it wouldn't work either.

      Actually working on some custom buttons but problem is I have a Mac with open office draw and gimp, and draw is limited and Gimp I'm just not good with, can't seem to get the image the right size in gimp... shows normal size, but when upload it's too large. But it's so small in gimp I can't make it smaller or I can't see what I'm doing lol.

        Yup, just realized I totally missed something simple and didn't have to deactivate and use the stock wp html. Didn't notice the "source" button for html on the fckeditor

    If there is an HTML tab in your FCK Editor... Then just paste the HTML they give you.

    Otherwise insert an image, with the address of the paypal button image, then hyperlink it to the paypal "e-mail link"

      Yeh check above, fig'd it out . Somehow I didn't pay attention to the "source" button in the corner on the editor lol. I knew there had to be a way vs disabling it and going to the stock wp html editor and then re-activating fckeditor lol.
