Info:
Because members have requested a donation bar for their FORUMHOME that integrated with Cyb Paypal Donate mod I have redone my original donation bar mod so that the donor dollors recieved will be reflected in the donation bar.

Requirements:

You must have Cyb Paypal Donate (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=122997) Mod installed.
Note: A donor's donation must be confirmed before the amount will be displayed in the donor bar.

Installation:

Import the product-ppdonatebar.xml through admin cp

Edit your FORUMHOME template:

Find:
$header
$navbar

Add below:
$donbar

Post Installation:

Make sure when entering the form code for your Paypal button the links are formated as follows:
<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="business"
value="sample@sample.com">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-butcc-donate.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!"></form>
If you do not use this format for the links your button will not show. Please do not copy and past my info above you must fo to your Paypal account and create a button with your account code and email info.
If you wish instead of a paypal button link you can put the URL to your donation page.

Version History:

1.0.0 First release

Upgrading Instructions:

Go to your Admincp->Plugin&amp;Products->Manage products->Add/Import Product make sure you select overwrite.

Please report any and all bugs within this thread with as much detail as possible.

I appologize for the problems guys but I had to re-up again because the goal amount was missing from the admin cp options this should be the last update for it to work right. Be sure to uninstall first before importing the new XML.

It's ok now... got it working. Wondering if there was a page to view donators?

Thanks,

You mean for other members to view who donated besides the admin?
