[HTML] Simple Paypal Donation Form

AsakuraHAO · January 25, 2017

Hello Guys! I think I'm on the right forum to post this small guide.

What's is this all about?

This guide will simply show you a simple html code that will display a donation form for your site. You can put this on your sidebar(depends on the site layout, it may get displace) or in a new page.

Requirements?

Simple understanding of HTML structure

Blogger, Wordpress Premium, Hosted Sites

Steps (With options):

1. Log-in to your Paypal account.

2. Go to your settings [gear icon]. And find your merchant ID if you have one or your primary email address.

3. View the sample code below:

Make a Donation to Alpha and Omega TranslationsFill out the form to get me a coffee or sponsor a novel.                       Coffee or Sponsor?:                               Coffee                    Sponsor                   Sponsor? What novel?:        How much do you want to donate?: $

4. The important syntaxes you need to change are below:

5. The optional syntaxes to change/add:

<!-- This will redirect the donator to a page on your site after donating.

6. Don't touch the other syntaxes not listed above.

7. Extras:

Coffee or Sponsor?:                               Coffee                    Sponsor                   Sponsor? What novel?:

If you want to change the choices, just simply replace the text. Don't forget to change also the text inside value.

If you want to add more options just simply add:

[text]

If you want to remove the the Sponsor? What novel? and replace it with another options. Just simply delete this syntax:

Sp...

and do this, change the value and option to what you want:

Coffee or Sponsor?:                               Coffee                    Sponsor            Coffee or Sponsor2?:                               Coffee2                    Sponsor2

If you have a Donation Button created then do this:

and remove this:

8. That's it. You just need to type this as html in your site.

Post your questions, clarifications, corrections, etc. so that I can answer you and change some things on my post.

I'll be posting some time later the code for just simply a donation form with just an input of amount and button with no options.

But for now, I need to sleep. I still have a 12:00PM class. Urgghh... My head hurts.

Ciao!
