 * Hi guys,
    I am tired of wasting my time so please help me. I just want to add
   a paypal button to one of my blog page. So it is just a html code that I add 
   to my page but… this is not working. Why? I tried some plugins, but no solutions.
 * Thanks in advance!

 *  What is not working? Are you getting errors? How are you adding it to your page?
   Please post a link showing the page you are having a problem on.

 * Did you pasted the code in HTML View ?
 * Try to create a short code instead in functions.php of your current theme.
 *     ```
       function paypal_button_func( $atts ){
        return 'all your html code here';
       }
       add_shortcode( 'paypal_button', 'paypal_button_func' );
       ```
   
 * The in your page or entry, add [paypal_button] in place

 * It would be better to use a child theme. Otherwise when your theme gets upgraded
   you will loose the code from Luis.
