PayPal Button

Why is my Paypal “Buy Now” button not displaying after I click “Save Draft”?
(PayPal recently changed the way you access this button, and now when I cut and paste the code the button I can’t seem to get it to stick. As soon as I click “Save Draft” the code changes and the button disappears)
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hey there!
Can you confirm that you’re installing the PayPal button by utilizing the instructions here:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/
We require the button be installed in a different way than outlined on PayPal’s site, otherwise the code will get stripped.
If you are following the instructions, but the button/code are still disappearing, please take a screenshot of your code *before* you click Save.
The page at the following link has some helpful tips for taking screenshots:
Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.

That’s how I always did it before. But last night I went to Paypal’s site and the “Selling Tools” option no longer appeared in settings. In fact, the “Settings” icon now said “Profile” and it only took me to a page of my user profile.
The only way I was able to find anything on Paypal about buttons was to register as a business and then was able to find this page
Which was pretty much a more straight-forward way of adding the button and linking it with my email address. But, everytime I copied the code provided it would disappear after I saved the draft.

Hey again,
Thanks for letting me know the process changed over at PayPal! We’ll take a look and make adjustments to our support documentation accordingly.
I’m going to send you a private email to gather some information from you that will help me troubleshoot the issue.
Thanks much!
