RocketStang Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 I want to set up ADMIN to be able to post HTML in 1 forum (so I can post buy now paypal buttons for forum merch. I found the setting for the group but how do I turn it on for the forum?
opentype Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 Normally, you just hit the “Source” button in the editor.

RocketStang Posted June 15, 2020 Author Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) I ran into an issue posting Paypal Order Now buttons in a post...the HTML displayed fine, but the button launched the browser back to the first page of the thread?? I had to create a temp HTML page to link to the item's thread for now. What could be wrong? The code obviously works but not on IPS? Here is a test post I set up on my live board...when you click ADD TO CART, it should start to open paypal but as you can see, it sends you back to the post instead... https://7173mustangs.com/forums/topic/35936-testing/ Edited June 15, 2020 by RocketStang
opentype Posted June 15, 2020 Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) Something was probably stripped for security reasons. You need to check what it is by comparing the code before and after posting. There are some whitelisting options in the editor settings in the ACP which might help depending on what was stripped. Edited June 15, 2020 by opentype

If you have in your acp the setting "Serve images from local server?" enabled, try to switch it off. This is a bug. Quote " This issue should be resolved in 4.5 - I recommend leaving the image proxy off in the mean time."

bfarber Posted June 16, 2020 Posted June 16, 2020 If your group has permission to post HTML then nothing should be stripped because we don't run your post through HTML Purifier.
londonmitch Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 I am having this exact same issue. Just want to easily be able to sell one singular product since we already have an online store front setup through Shopify. This item is a small pocket knife and since we are connected to Facebook/Instagram they will remove our entire product catalog for selling it.

I have created the button and tested it in an iframe and works perfectly. When I add the HTML into a forum post it redirects me to the first page in that same thread.
Marc Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 As mentioned, nothing should be being stripped there really. We cannot assist with custom development unfortunately, but it would be worth you inspecting the source to see if you can see whats going on there.
