    Thank you if you can help me!

    I've searched all over for this and no idea how it's done in WP. I used to have no problem making drop down buttons in the old days...but not sure how anymore with WP and Genesis.

    I'd like to have a user click a regular button, then a drop down menu is displayed. (The way it's done in the nav menu...but with a regular button in the middle of a sales page.)

    I'm trying to have a "BUY NOW" button, then it drops down with a handful of options, if that all makes sense.

    I'd use a plugin if that's an option, but haven't found one. Or whatever works without much pain 🙂

    Thank you so much for your help!

    Where are the Buy Now buttons pointing to? I know with PayPal you generate the code with the drop downs inside PayPal and then you embed that code into your site.


    Need help with customization or troubleshooting? Reach out to me.

    Hi Anita, thanks for the reply!

    Yes, like paypal but it's for something different.

    After numerous searches on Google I finally used "html" in my search for "html button with drop down menu" and found exactly what I was looking for.

    I'm not sure it's even smart to use a drop downs anymore (because of mobile).
