    How do I go about adding a paypal subscription button on one of my blogs? Can I do it in cPanel? I am not sure where to look to find the front or home page if I look at the files in cPanel. Or, can I add it while in admin/dashboard and just haven’t found the right place to look.

  • Depends on where you want it to show. Is you homepage a static front page? Is it using widgets? You should be able to add the code in the editor or in a widget, or a template file.

    As of now it is not a static front page. There is a widget working on it. I looked to see if anything said that HTML code could be entered and either didn’t see it or didn’t understand where and how to paste it. I have not seen an editor which means I may have missed it or it is not in the theme I am using which is “pixel”.

    Just really getting started and have a cursory knowledge of the format for WP. No expert here.

    A “text” widget allows you to use HTML.

    PayPal has a tool that will let you create one:

    The html code can then be added to a page or post using text mode in the editor.

    This can also be added to a text widget.

    OK, GREAT! Thank You Very Much!!! I thought so just couldn’t figure it out. I have to say that out of all the software I have been experimenting with the last few years that Word Press is extraordinary. Who ever put this together has been a boon to all of us who like to write and exchange ideas. I have tried SPIP.Status, Joomla, Xoops and Drupal and settled on Word Press just for this reason. The more I work with it the better it gets.
    Thanks Again, TCrowe
