PayPal Button not working

In any case, it is not advisable to change the code given by PayPal.

I’d agree with the above, but I actually DID try to “fix” the bad one with code from the good one – and it did not work.

I really think you have to go back to PayPal on this.

WPyogi,
Interestingly, both the codes above work perfectly. I tested them again.

Wow, weird – you clicked on the “buy” and got a valid PayPal page?

And I said in my above post:

I would suggest to go to PayPal back and get your button code again.

So, that’s what you have to do.

Yes. That’s it.

Please read above about what PayPal support told me

Can you put that code in a plain HTML page and show that it works?

I just did the above – put it in a plain HTML document, uploaded it to my own test server and it gives the same error on the PayPal page. I really don’t know what else to suggest, sorry.

It’s weird because this code works, and when I tried to type in the specific values that to this code it doesn’t work so I have no clue. That is why I need a someone who does coding

Starting from the top:

I just copied the code from PayPal and when I save it and go to the website it doesn’t work.

Where and how exactly did you paste that code and into what? This is an important question. Please try to be specific if you can.

Also have you tried Krishna’s suggestion…?

Hi Jan,

The old code I got form the site in the area it is working

https://thinkandgrowrichcanada.com/keynote-speakers/

if you see it on the right hand side it works.

That was the old code from the ticket area as well.

When I copied the native original code from PayPal it didn’t work, when I called them they told me it’s the website I need to find a developer to fix it.

that is why I was asking for help.

Yes. That was made clear about 25 posts ago. ??

Got that too.

Where and how exactly did you paste that code and into what? This is an important question. Please try to be specific if you can.

1. Are you attempting to paste it into a post using the post editor?
2. Are you attempting to paste that into a page template?

If it’s the first one then that wont work. The post editor will sanitize the HTML and that will make it go Kablooey. I don’t think that’s necessarily what you are attempting but I want to make sure.

If it’s the second one then that may work depending on how and where you are doing and applying that code.

NOTE: Re-reading this whole thread once again I think I’ve missed something basic.

…You haven’t used this code yet and are asking how to do it…?

If that’s the case then I apologize for missing that.

If that’s not the case then please provide what you’ve attempted.
