  Hi @asleepingtiger,

  In order to add a PayPal donate button you need to first have the HTML code, which, based on your post, you know how to get.

  Add an HTML widget to the side bar with the added PayPal HTML code.

  Try this;
  WP-Admin > Appearance > Widgets
  Look for the widget on the left that reads “Text”, click and drag it to the sidebar section on the right.

  Once it is in the sidebar section click on it to open up the options.
  Paste your PayPal HTML code into the “content” section.
  Click save.
  You should now have your PayPal button in your sidebar.

  Hope this helps.
