  Hi there,
  We would like to add a Paypal donate button with Dropdown menu/ radio button price options in our site.
  This is so the donor will have an option on how much they will give.

  I have already generated an code for that on Paypal.
  However, as mentioned in the support ‘Learn how to add a PayPal button to your post, page, or sidebar. It’s a bit different than copying the code from PayPal’s site’

  In the support page we were asked to get the code line from the Email Tab.
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/2/

  However, when I generated the code on Paypal, there was no Email Tab. Most likely because my code had price options.

  Hope someone can help me on this.

  Thanks,
  Czar :)

  The only PayPpal instructions that will work on a wordpress.com hosted blog are found in this support doc https://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/view-all/

  Customization options are not supported so please also read this thread starting at https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/paypal-button-41?replies=12#post-2517229

  Hi there,

  You are correct that this is the reason.

  As it says in the support document, we do not support anything but the basic PayPal button, so it is not possible at all to use a button containing a drop-down menu. You also cannot use a button where the price is specified beforehand.

  Let me know if any of this is unclear to you.
