Hi all,

I am struggling with creating hyperlinks while posting a new thread.

Here's what I want to do:

1. I have a html code that I received from Paypal that I need to paste into my website. This code is a link to redirect people to my the paypal page where they can buy what I am selling.

But when I try to use it on the " post new thread" page, it doesn't work.

How do people go about setting this up?
How do I redirect people to this page?

For example, if I have something like: CLICK HERE NOW TO ORDER I would like that to be an hyperlink that will redirect people to my paypal page.

Can anyone show me please the steps that I need to take to make this happen?

Thanks

      In order to use your PayPal payment on a forum you need to use the PayPal email link rather than the button code on a forum post

    You can try pasting your HTML code into your post by putting the editor into "HTML" mode instead of Visual. However that doesn't always work correctly.

    In that case try the Exec-PHP plugin, it will allow you to paste raw code in the editor in HTML mode.

    One thing to be careful of though is that if you do go that router you must remember to always edit and view that post in HTML mode - even just viewing it in Visual mode will break the code.
