here with another tutorial on how to
3
00:00:04,440 –> 00:00:09,090
accept payments on your website and this
4
00:00:06,509 –> 00:00:12,540
is a common theme on my channel so I’m
5
00:00:09,090 –> 00:00:15,929
going to show you a simple way to add a
6
00:00:12,540 –> 00:00:18,539
PayPal button just like this one to your
7
00:00:15,929 –> 00:00:26,699
website in WordPress using the Divi
8
00:00:18,539 –> 00:00:28,019
WordPress theme or plugin so in a
9
00:00:26,699 –> 00:00:30,449
previous video I showed you how to
10
00:00:28,019 –> 00:00:32,880
create buttons like this donate or Pay
11
00:00:30,449 –> 00:00:35,010
Now buttons and you install these by
12
00:00:32,880 –> 00:00:36,840
creating the button within your PayPal
13
00:00:35,010 –> 00:00:39,719
account getting the code and then
14
00:00:36,840 –> 00:00:42,390
installing it into the WordPress text
15
00:00:39,719 –> 00:00:45,329
field within any page or post or sidebar
16
00:00:42,390 –> 00:00:47,610
but this option that allows you to get
17
00:00:45,329 –> 00:00:50,460
this button this customizable you can
18
00:00:47,610 –> 00:00:52,920
change the text the color and even how
19
00:00:50,460 –> 00:00:54,449
the button behaves because everything is
20
00:00:52,920 –> 00:00:57,780
operating through the Divi WordPress
21
00:00:54,449 –> 00:01:00,300
theme or plugin it’s a much simpler
22
00:00:57,780 –> 00:01:02,010
process this is just plug and play so
23
00:01:00,300 –> 00:01:03,960
I’ll show you how to do that starting
24
00:01:02,010 –> 00:01:06,600
right now so first off we’ll come over
25
00:01:03,960 –> 00:01:09,090
to our WordPress dashboard and I’ve
26
00:01:06,600 –> 00:01:10,830
created this page which we will come
27
00:01:09,090 –> 00:01:12,720
back to so the first thing that I’ll do
28
00:01:10,830 –> 00:01:15,479
is come over to the plugins section and
29
00:01:12,720 –> 00:01:18,049
click add new and under the search bar
30
00:01:15,479 –> 00:01:22,140
up at the top right I’ll just search for
31
00:01:18,049 –> 00:01:23,850
PayPal for Divi and once that loads to
32
00:01:22,140 –> 00:01:26,070
give credit where credit is due
33
00:01:23,850 –> 00:01:28,890
this plug-in right here is the one that
34
00:01:26,070 –> 00:01:30,810
we’re going to use by angel eye and you
35
00:01:28,890 –> 00:01:33,960
can see that I’ve already activated this
36
00:01:30,810 –> 00:01:35,939
plug-in on this website but if you
37
00:01:33,960 –> 00:01:38,070
haven’t activated it yet which will be
38
00:01:35,939 –> 00:01:42,060
the case for you you will just simply
39
00:01:38,070 –> 00:01:43,860
click install now and then activate once
40
00:01:42,060 –> 00:01:45,780
the plug-in is activated you’ll come
41
00:01:43,860 –> 00:01:47,640
down to the settings and hover over the
42
00:01:45,780 –> 00:01:50,250
settings option and then come down to
43
00:01:47,640 –> 00:01:53,189
PayPal for Divi and you’ll click on it
44
00:01:50,250 –> 00:01:55,979
and this is where you begin the
45
00:01:53,189 –> 00:01:57,570
customization of setting up your PayPal
46
00:01:55,979 –> 00:01:59,790
account now it’s very simple to do
47
00:01:57,570 –> 00:02:03,060
literally all you’re doing is typing in
48
00:01:59,790 –> 00:02:05,040
the PayPal account name ended PayPal
49
00:02:03,060 –> 00:02:06,930
account ID and then you can check
50
00:02:05,040 –> 00:02:09,209
whether it needs to be in sandbox or
51
00:02:06,930 –> 00:02:11,550
live mode you can see that I’ve already
52
00:02:09,209 –> 00:02:13,440
set one up here and if I click on edit
53
00:02:11,550 –> 00:02:15,990
the account name and that’s
54
00:02:13,440 –> 00:02:18,150
my paypal email address very simple and
55
00:02:15,990 –> 00:02:20,520
I left it in sandbox node to do testing
56
00:02:18,150 –> 00:02:22,170
so if I wanted to add a second PayPal
57
00:02:20,520 –> 00:02:24,660
account because in a second you’ll see
58
00:02:22,170 –> 00:02:27,330
that you can select which PayPal account
59
00:02:24,660 –> 00:02:29,760
you want specific buttons to be attached
60
00:02:27,330 –> 00:02:31,110
to so if you want multiple options if
61
00:02:29,760 –> 00:02:33,570
there’s a need for that on your website
62
00:02:31,110 –> 00:02:35,730
you can easily set it up I have one
63
00:02:33,570 –> 00:02:37,890
installed right here one PayPal account
64
00:02:35,730 –> 00:02:40,410
and in order to add a second I’ll just
65
00:02:37,890 –> 00:02:44,340
add it right here so I’ll type in the
66
00:02:40,410 –> 00:02:46,260
name of a company PayPal account and the
67
00:02:44,340 –> 00:02:48,720
email address associated with it
68
00:02:46,260 –> 00:02:50,940
I can check live or sandbox and I’ll go
69
00:02:48,720 –> 00:02:53,460
ahead and put this one to live add the
70
00:02:50,940 –> 00:02:55,610
PayPal account and it’ll show up right
71
00:02:53,460 –> 00:02:59,790
there so now I have two options a
72
00:02:55,610 –> 00:03:01,980
personal email and a company email ones
73
00:02:59,790 –> 00:03:04,650
in live and one’s in sandbox that’s all
74
00:03:01,980 –> 00:03:07,470
you need to do to activate this plug-in
75
00:03:04,650 –> 00:03:09,540
or set up this plug-in in order for you
76
00:03:07,470 –> 00:03:11,220
to start creating buttons so once you
77
00:03:09,540 –> 00:03:13,620
have that set up just come in to the
78
00:03:11,220 –> 00:03:16,770
pages or the posts or wherever you would
79
00:03:13,620 –> 00:03:20,130
like to add this button and create a
80
00:03:16,770 –> 00:03:22,230
page now again this is a Divi plug-in so
81
00:03:20,130 –> 00:03:24,120
it’s specific to the Divi builder so you
82
00:03:22,230 –> 00:03:26,400
either have to have the Divi builder
83
00:03:24,120 –> 00:03:28,680
plug-in installed on your website and
84
00:03:26,400 –> 00:03:30,390
running or you have to be running the
85
00:03:28,680 –> 00:03:32,880
Divi theme or one of the elegant
86
00:03:30,390 –> 00:03:35,220
WordPress themes so I’ve already created
87
00:03:32,880 –> 00:03:38,340
a page and I’m just going to click on
88
00:03:35,220 –> 00:03:40,410
edit and as you can see I already have
89
00:03:38,340 –> 00:03:42,230
the Divi builder activated so there’s
90
00:03:40,410 –> 00:03:46,170
there’ll be a button right here that
91
00:03:42,230 –> 00:03:48,570
requires you to use the Divi builder in
92
00:03:46,170 –> 00:03:50,700
order to make this option possible so
93
00:03:48,570 –> 00:03:53,610
all you’re going to do is create a row
94
00:03:50,700 –> 00:03:55,470
and then click on insert module and if
95
00:03:53,610 –> 00:03:57,840
you’ve activated the plug-in that I just
96
00:03:55,470 –> 00:04:00,269
showed you how to to set up you’ll get
97
00:03:57,840 –> 00:04:02,670
this option right here for PayPal button
98
00:04:00,269 –> 00:04:04,590
and you just click on it and then this
99
00:04:02,670 –> 00:04:06,450
module settings will come up
100
00:04:04,590 –> 00:04:09,989
select the PayPal account that you want
101
00:04:06,450 –> 00:04:11,700
we’ll just set it to the live one you
102
00:04:09,989 –> 00:04:13,530
have a button type and these are pretty
103
00:04:11,700 –> 00:04:15,480
self-explanatory but this is where you
104
00:04:13,530 –> 00:04:17,850
go down and you’ll just edit the button
105
00:04:15,480 –> 00:04:19,590
and customize it according to what you
106
00:04:17,850 –> 00:04:23,940
would like to have happen so you can
107
00:04:19,590 –> 00:04:27,440
type an item name in here you can type
108
00:04:23,940 –> 00:04:30,510
an item price will do $50
109
00:04:27,440 –> 00:04:33,510
by now or donate so let’s just leave it
110
00:04:30,510 –> 00:04:35,910
as donate option you can set the return
111
00:04:33,510 –> 00:04:37,860
or the cancel URL if the customer
112
00:04:35,910 –> 00:04:40,110
decides to cancel out they’ll be sent
113
00:04:37,860 –> 00:04:42,480
back to those pages on your website and
114
00:04:40,110 –> 00:04:44,970
then you can customize the button
115
00:04:42,480 –> 00:04:48,870
display if you check this – yes you can
116
00:04:44,970 –> 00:04:51,180
put you know custom text here or just
117
00:04:48,870 –> 00:04:52,830
you know donate here this will be a long
118
00:04:51,180 –> 00:04:56,010
button because I got a lot of text down
119
00:04:52,830 –> 00:04:58,530
there and change it to light or dark
120
00:04:56,010 –> 00:05:01,590
text you can even upload an image I’ll
121
00:04:58,530 –> 00:05:06,080
put the button in the center and then
122
00:05:01,590 –> 00:05:08,220
I’ll label this donate button for my own
123
00:05:06,080 –> 00:05:10,260
administrative labelings and I’ll save
124
00:05:08,220 –> 00:05:14,520
so I have the bate PayPal button and the
125
00:05:10,260 –> 00:05:16,740
donate button I’ll click update this one
126
00:05:14,520 –> 00:05:18,600
by the way I had already set up so the
127
00:05:16,740 –> 00:05:21,030
paypal donate button is the one that we
128
00:05:18,600 –> 00:05:24,180
just created and I’ll click preview and
129
00:05:21,030 –> 00:05:26,400
it loads in this screen and there it is
130
00:05:24,180 –> 00:05:28,800
there’s my custom text here donate here
131
00:05:26,400 –> 00:05:32,850
and if I click on that button which
132
00:05:28,800 –> 00:05:34,530
again is customized all through the Divi
133
00:05:32,850 –> 00:05:36,479
plug-in that I just showed you how to do
134
00:05:34,530 –> 00:05:38,010
it brings it straight over to this one
135
00:05:36,479 –> 00:05:40,080
and you can see this is the page that
136
00:05:38,010 –> 00:05:43,110
somebody can donate now they can select
137
00:05:40,080 –> 00:05:45,090
credit or debit or pay with PayPal so
138
00:05:43,110 –> 00:05:46,950
that’s really all there is to it you
139
00:05:45,090 –> 00:05:49,440
know one of the nice things about the
140
00:05:46,950 –> 00:05:52,020
Divi plug-in and the the WordPress theme
141
00:05:49,440 –> 00:05:54,330
itself is that you can really customize
142
00:05:52,020 –> 00:05:56,400
things to look however you would like
143
00:05:54,330 –> 00:05:59,250
especially the button so if you want to
144
00:05:56,400 –> 00:06:02,039
make a custom button that looks similar
145
00:05:59,250 –> 00:06:04,260
to either of these you can add these of
146
00:06:02,039 –> 00:06:07,289
course as usual you can put them over
147
00:06:04,260 –> 00:06:09,510
here on the sidebar or you can you know
148
00:06:07,289 –> 00:06:11,310
modify them and add additional text and
149
00:06:09,510 –> 00:06:14,340
customize the page so this plug-in
150
00:06:11,310 –> 00:06:17,160
developer has really created a nice easy
151
00:06:14,340 –> 00:06:19,169
simple way by just plugging in paypal
152
00:06:17,160 –> 00:06:22,500
email addresses and then being able to
153
00:06:19,169 –> 00:06:24,810
create a button that results in you know
154
00:06:22,500 –> 00:06:26,310
nice Divi buttons that look just like
155
00:06:24,810 –> 00:06:28,050
this and these of course if you’re
156
00:06:26,310 –> 00:06:30,510
familiar with Divi these are the
157
00:06:28,050 –> 00:06:32,520
standard buttons that come with the Divi
158
00:06:30,510 –> 00:06:34,620
plug-in and theme if you’re not familiar
