  Have tried 5 times to add paypal, but when I switch back to the view screen, it won’t let me access the icon it tells me to. It does not “light up”. So, all I get is a small box that says “null”.

  Help!

  Just to be sure, are you following this guide and using a Donate button (not a Buy Now button)?

  I have tried to get a response from WordPress 6 times about my problem, but no response. Have talked to Paypal, but apparently WordPress does not accept the HTML code. All I get is a box with a red X. HELP

  Hi there,

  Could you please make you’re following these instructions?
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/

  If you’re not able to create the link, could you try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies, and then try again?

  You might also try using a different browser, like Firefox or Chrome, to help us rule out a browser-related issue:

  http://google.com/chrome/

  I cleared cache and cookies. I used Google Chrome. I tried 6 times, and followed directions EXACTLY. All I get is img src=alt=. No image. No link,. STILL, on the visual the link button withe chainlink, does not work. I don’t get it!

  Okay, it’s likely that the code you’re trying to use is removed from WordPress.com for security reasons. Can you post the code into a reply here? You can use the code button in the post area to format it so that it doesn’t get stripped. Thanks!
