Re: PayPal Buttons & Trials

I don't want to use the PayPal buy now button with my site.

Each PayPal Button Shortcode has a default "image" attribute. ( i.e. image="default" ).
You can just change that to something like this:

Code:: image="http://mysite.com/myimage.png"

Here is a full example:

Code:: [s2Member-PayPal-Button level="1" ccaps="music,videos" desc="Music & Videos" ps="PayPal" cc="USD" custom="www.example.com" tp="0" tt="D" ra="0.01" rp="1" rt="M" rr="1" image="http://mysite.com/myimage.png" /]

Hi Jennifer,

Have you found a solution for your first issue? The one with the buy now button? I have the same issue and can't seem to find a solution

PayPal Buttons & Trials

2010-09-20T10:27:10-05:00

Hi Everyone,

First, I don't want to use the PayPal buy now button with my site. It doesn't fit the theme of my site whatsoever, and I'd like to use my own creative. How do I do this? I tried replacing the image URL in the "Resulting PayPal® Button Code:" at the bottom, but that causes two of these to be at the top and bottom of my image creative "->". Also after clicking and taking to PayPal, the description will show what looks like PHP code so something is obviously wrong, even though all I changed was the image location to my own checkout button.

Next, I would like to offer my customers a $1 trial, which rebills at x amount if they choose to continue. How do I do this? I don't want a completely free trial (All they will do is keep signing up for free trials and canceling, + I want to make money off of the $1 trials).

Then I would like to limit the number of downloads for that free trial, and when they reach it, they can upgrade - if they want to upgrade before their billing recurs, how can they upgrade without being charged the recurring fee for the free trial?

I also have several packages - monthly, bi-monthly, tri-monthly and free trial - what about when I want to do sales and promotions? I'm assuming I have to create more "levels" but the maximum is 4? They're all getting the same thing, the only difference being time...

Thank you to anyone who responds and helps me...

Jennifer
