OK this hack needs to be removed. I installed this yeasterday after I was looking for a paypal donation plugin which I endedup going with his newer product.

The second page of the install it came to a database error about phrases. As I went to uninstall it now I can now uninstall it as it never installed. But yet it shows up in my AdminCP as "PayPal Donations" I went and removed all of the files from the install but I do not know enough about databases to want to or be brave enough to want to go and remove tables from the database with out somebody informing me of what tables I can or should remove.

I followed Sinsterpain's idea and tried uploading and install it again but same effect. To make things even worse is my backup admin installed vbulletin 3.7.0 last night comming from 3.6.8 so I dont know if those tables were overwritten or what.

I would love to remove it from the AdminCP menu though.

OK scrap this post I guess just wanted to keep it up / I went & over wrote all of the old files so I could find them easyer and removed the entire hack file for file now its no longer showing up in my AdminCP, I looked in the database and because it didnt install there are no tables in the database for it.

I went and set up AWjunkie new paypal donation system and have considered purchasing the pro version.

Seems to be working Great on 3.7.0 Gold

i co-sign. works fine on gold

Tho I suggest not showing the donations link to Guests as once in a great while i get a vb DB Error where a guest has tried to donate ,

Other than that this has brought in alot of funds on my site

lucky you :)

There are minor bugs still in this mod that need fixing. I would sugest to move over to a newer donation system if you are running VB 3.5, 3.6 or 3.7. AWcoding-Donation System has all the features of this mod and more.

Very nice mod, can't wait for someone to take this up and update it. Installed :)

uninstalled. I went with awcoding it was the perfect solution.

I realize this hack is no longer supported, but I figure I'm going to ask a question anyway.

Does anyone know how you can keep the PayPal Donations tab from being viewable or accessible in the AdminCP for members you wish to add to the Administrator user group?

I have Can Administer plug-ins set to no on the Advanced Admin permissions, but it still shows up in their ACP and they can view all the info. The only they they can't do is change the PayPal Donation settings.

Any help will be appreciated.
