Trouble with PayPal code.

General Discussions
1

I am sure it is a minor issue but I am trying to use the HTML module to drop in a PayPal button code. Below is the code. The blue line just keeps going… and going…
I tried to use the Basic Text Editor (using the text tab) option also, but that wouldn’t stick either. I need to use PayPal at first, with thoughts of movng to woo com down the road. Please take a look and let me know.
Please reply and I’ll give you the creds to get in.
Thanks Guys,
JP

Hey JP,

I tried the code on my local dev environment and it works just fine. Go ahead and send over temp admin access so we can check. :slight_smile:

Hello.
I have been looking for a widget that would let me drag in a paypal button, for the moment my client wants to stick with a very basic cart system that uses the add to cart ( adds to paypals cart ) and then the user can click back to his site to add more… then when finished they click the “View Cart” button to see the paypal default cart and then pay…

what i am then looking for would be a simple widget to drag in that lets me populate the main details, price, description, email address etc… then pass this over to the paypal cart…

can anyone suggest a solution for this… or could this be an option for the future?
i did see this editor that says it has this…

Your thoughts…
Many thanks

Hey Carl,

You can use shortcodes or HTML as Jon is with Beaver Builder. I think what you are looking for doesn’t exist though unless there is a WordPress based PayPal eCommerce solution out there like WooCommerce or Easy Digital Downloads. With PayPal, all details have to be configured on their side and they pass HTML on to you to use in your application i.e. HTML module. Sorry if that wasn’t quite what you were looking for, but feel free to do some searching to see if anything exists for what you need.

Best,
Billy
