You don't need to have a package to add a #Paypal button on your forum you just need to go to Paypal and get their Embed button code.

Please note you can't link your Paypal account to our Ad's forums on your forum.

You already have a PayPal (donate) button on your forum.  Are you talking about in the classified ads feature?

yes, i have a Jacket business. i want to upload content, i would like help on how to add that paypal "Pay now" button. i know its on the pay-pal account, but when i copy that Embedded button code, when i hit enter or preview. it doesn't register that code & it just shows the embedded code which looks like random letters. i know i have a donate button but that was the only thing that worked, when it came to a paypal button. if anyone can help me with this problem of not being able to add the paypal "paynow" button, even when i copied the code directly from the paypal account. im just wondering if i chose the wrong site to have my business on. please help!

You have to activate HTML for the whole forum and in your profile.

haha i've already tried that. im not sure if you understand what im saying so i'll expand. when someone comes onto mysite & they see/pick out whatever jacket they like in the forum. they wont be able to pay because theres not a button i can add to the site, thats specifically designed for that product. i know its not a problem with paypal because they provide the code to copy it. its just when i copy that code & put it on the topic i make for that product. im not sure if i can explain it anymore simpler than that. thank you for trying to help! this is a great host to be apart of. i just need help with this problem.

Sorry, nut if I understand you correctly, it is not possible.    We do not have a store feature.  How exactly are you displaying your products?

Awhh man, i was really hoping this host had a store feature, i should of did my research more before advancing my website to the premium package. That explains why the paypal code wont register when i've pasted the code into the topic. thank you for answering that. Can i still have my Jacket business on a forum website?

Hi,


If the code provided by Paypal includes javascript or php, you can post it where you want on your forum, except inside posts for safety reasons.

You can use for example javascript and/or html pages management.

Just to be Clear.

Our ad's system will only list 1 item at a time it will not give size colour or type of jacket.
We do not have a buy Now button it will just send a Notification to the seller of the item.
Only Admin's / Founders can View the item before it becomes live and you will need to ok each item.

Sadly You can not link your forum to paypal as we don't have the right to do that and it would cost to much for our host to add that.

NOW packages .......

It Don't matter if you have a package or not you can always use the Ad's setting on your forum 100% free
Adding the package will not change nothing for that fetcher.

It dose sound like you have paid for this package for nothing if you are not going to have a domain name of your own BUT all is not lost if you want to use the forum to sell your jackets then you would not want our add's on your forum so this wold help pay to remove them. Without a package you can't remove our ad's

Maybe you should checkout ForumsClub:   https://forumsclub.com/classifieds/c2-forumsclub-advert-section/

If you see what you want on it, you can convert your forum over to it.   The only thing is the forum as to be in English when it was created.

Important: 
If you do decide to convert over, you can not convert back to the forum.  Your forum will still be there, but all activity would happen on ForumsClub.   Yourr and all your members' accounts will be converted over, too.  All you have to do is log into ForumsClub with your forum's login information.   You can also still log into your forum's AP.
