    Word press says to do the following, pasted below, but I don’t know how or where to add my generated code to my website. Do you know where or how I find and copy ” Your link here?” Thank you!

    Your link code goes between the quotation marks where it says ‘YOUR-LINK-HERE’ in the code provided below:


    <img src=”https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynow_LG.gif” alt=”Buy Now Button” />

    You’ll want to copy the code above, with your link in the ‘YOUR-LINK-HERE’ space, to be ready to paste it into a post or page in the next step.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    The only secure payment system is for those who hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting and move their content into a WordPress.ORG install. Move To a Self-Hosted WordPress Site https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-to-a-self-hosted-wordpress-site/

    All support docs are at http://support.wordpress.com
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/

    re: PayPal

    Know that the only instructions that will work for posting a PayPal donation button on a WordPress.com blog are found here http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/

    Note that the PayPal email link is not supported and PayPal customization options are not supported either

    Thanks Timethief.
    I did follow the instructions at
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/
    But can’t work out what they mean at Step Three, about how to paste my Paypal generated code.
    Step Three says:
    Place your code between the quotation marks where it says ‘YOUR-LINK-HERE’ in the code provided below:

    <img src=”https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynow_LG.gif” alt=”Buy Now Button” />

    You’ll want to copy the code above, with your link in the ‘YOUR-LINK-HERE’ space, to be ready to paste it into a post or page in the next step.

    That’s the part I don’t know how to do, or where to do it.
