no i would like to add the button to my post on here for something im selling. do i need to use or something?
You can't add a button, as that used more code then vBulletin will allow a post to handle. Your best bet is to simply offer your paypal email (via PM for security and spam prevention)... most people here understand how it works from there. Alternatively, you could have an email link generated and have it emailed, but then, I've never done that through paypal, so I'm really unsure how that works. Best of luck though in your selling, Q
Do you mean the 'Buy Now' button ? You can do it if you have a Premier or Business account. Log into your paypal account then click on the 'Merchant Services' tab. Under 'PayPal Website Payments Standard' you will see tha 'Key Benefits' on the right hand side and under it click on 'Buy Now Buttons' then proceed from there. Hope that helps.
No he didn't Look at the URL, he is redirecting to a paypal checkout page. You can set up the paypal information on another page, then use the tag to link to that, but you can not put the button directly in a post (faking it excluded).
It would likely help to know what's going on in a thread if you read it... I already gave the answer as to whether or not it could be done. Generate a button through paypal and it is simply TOO much code for the [bbcode] system to handle, so no... you can not place an official paypal button on Digital Point... you can however fake it through re-directs... then again, you too would have likely caught on had you bothered to actually read the posts between the first one and your reply. Or were you two just shooting for post count?
