I figured out this little quirk about placing PayPal code on your blog. For instance, if you want to include a “Donate Now” button or a “Buy Now” button on one of your posts or pages, you’ll sometimes get the error that says:

“…unable to decrypt the certificate id.”

I got this today and I went back over the process of setting up the Buy Now button and copying and pasting the code on to my page to no avail.

Finally, I found out why it didn’t work.

Go back and edit your post/page and look for the end of the code you pasted in…

The last part should be on the same line like this:

Another thing is to make sure that you place the PayPal code between “code” tags.
