Create - Using MosaicGlobe > Paypal is not working!

April 04, 2007 at 04:18 GMT

I'm hoping that somebody can tell me why I can't get paypal buttons to work on my site? I'm becoming incredibly frustrated with the lost income due to the conflicts with getting paypal buttons to work with my pages. If this can't be resolved I am going to be forced to move my site to another service provider, something I would prefer not to do. If somebody can give me advice on this issue I would greatly appreciate it.

To add "Buy Now" buttons to your website you have to follow these
instructions.

1. On Paypal in Merchant Services, click the "Buy Now Buttons" link
in the key features block.

2. When generating the button, make sure that the "Click Yes to Encrypt Your Button" is set to no.

3. On the screen with the button information copy the URL that is in the "Link For Emails"

4. On your MosaicGlobe site (in any text editing area or a gallery image description) put the HTML below where you want the button to appear,
replacing the text < link that paypal provided > with your link, leave the quotes:

Now when you look at your image through the lightbox or on the description page you should see the "Buy Now" button.

Issues arise when trying to use the form from paypal. MosaicGlobe does not allow forms to be added to the site due to security issues.

We will look into simplifying the process in the future.
