Hi @baseballpoetess,
I’m not sure I understand. This is a plugin for WordPress that give you a shortcode. You put that shortcode on a page or post and it displays a donate button.
Custom HTML is not needed at all to make this work. I took a look at your site, but I am not seeing any donation area / shortcode / html.
Thanks,
Scott
The “custom HTML” is the name of the widget. It is found on the widgets page on the dashboard. Is there another widget I should be using to add the donate button to my sidebar? I understand shortcodes–I use them on myfoodweek.com for my recipes and menus. What is happening is that, instead of displaying a button, it displays the shortcode. Let me put it there for you.
The plugin has a widget, you should see that in the list of available widgets.
I am having a similar problem I see the shortcode only, not the PayPal button, however am using the Paypal Donation Button widget from the plugin.
Here is the link to the page http://centreforprojectionart.com.au/donate2/
Hi @adminbee,
Please double check that the plugin is active and that you are using the correct plugin widget.
Thanks,
Scott
