    I cannot and will not ever pay for premium. I have been a blogger for many years,and you are now sabotaging me and my earnings. I have a PayPal button I need to add for my WordPress site. When I add the button correctly, even in html, you show a code instead of the actual button. This makes me look bad, and you should fix it before I find another blog that can fulfill my needs. Fix this outdated feature, as it is 2018, almost 2019 and other free blogs allows PayPal button.

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

    Hi there,

    If the PayPal button is showing code instead of a button, it means you are using the wrong code. We only support the basic Buy Now button for PayPal. Buttons with extra features like a form or a drop down cannot be used on WordPress.com. We’ve never allowed those versions of the button to be used on WordPress.com for security reasons.

    You can find the instructions for adding a PayPal button to your site here:

    https://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/

    https://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/get-paypal-button-code/

    If you’ve followed those exact steps and it doesn’t work, please give a link to the exact post or page on your site where you’re trying to add that button, and also please paste the code you’re getting from PayPal in your reply. Make sure to click the code button above the forum reply box before and after you paste in the code.
