Auto Usergroups require the use of PayPals IPN. Thats quite a significant addition to this hack. I actually have IPN working on my test site currently, but thats as far as Ive got. I still need to code everything else.

Do you have a time frame or a general idea of when you might be able to incorporate automatically signing people up on a user group?
To quote a game developer "When its done" :)
Too hard to say with any certainty at present but it will be weeks not days.

Also, I would very much like the option of having two flavors of donation on that screen. One is a straight donation, the other is a subscription donation of monthly, quarterly if paypal allows it (can't remember), or annual.
I havent looked in any detail at subscriptions yet. I doubt if that will make the 1st release.

I know, give them an inch.... :)
Suggestions are good :)

Yes from what Ive seen there is a whole different set of fields for subscriptions in PayPal to allow for such things as end dates and other subscription specific tasks.

Donations of any kind are considered a 'virtual' goods and would be considered as a chargback by PayPal. If your PayPal account gets too many chargebacks they will close it, just like every other bank would ;)

In the first release there were zeros automatically entered in the amount box. Could you please post that code again so that we could re-insert it? It looked much more professional than just a blank white box. Thanks ;)

But then it doesn't really look like the PayPal page does and that's what we were going for. It looked tacky to me, to be honest. ;)

I spose I could make having a default amount (or just blank) as a CP option.
However before I release a 1.31 update I want to wait a few days to see if any bugs surface.

But for a quick fix, you just need to edit your XML file and import it again with overwrite selected, or you can just edit the template called 'billspp_main', whatever you feel more comfortable doing.

With either method find
Code:

<input type="text" name="amount" size="6" value="" />
and replace it with
Code:

<input type="text" name="amount" size="6" value="0.00" />

So? :rolleyes: I'm pretty sure that people know ahead of time that they're not at Paypal, when they're donating from our site ;)

Actually I think it looks cheesier without it. Look at other places (professional) that take in donations and they have it more like the first version. If you don't want to post it that's fine, it would just save us a LOT of work sorting through the file.

1 - You will also need to change the filename in a number of different lines else it will stop working.

2 - Oh yeah. I dont know why I didnt include a thank you page in this hack, espically since I have it in V2. :confused:
Will add to the 1.31 update.
