Well I install this and it failed big time for me.

There was no paypal donations menu on the left side, but was one in the vb options page, and I couldnt setup donations to select and I couldnt donate because there was nothing to select on the donate page.

Hummm...

jealousy isn't the word i need to use ha ha. well at least it working for some peeps

I really have to get this uninstalled from my forums. Can anyone please help me on this one. It seems as though I am finding other issues resulting with this hack.

Thanks

For anyone that may need this. I have about 1/2 a million users on my forum.
When I tried installing this hack, it would hang and timeout, even crash my mysql.

To fix this issue open /admincp/donation_install/donation_install_tables.php (line 128)

Find:
Change to:
open /admincp/donation_install/donation_uninstall.php (line 98)

Find:
Change to:
What that line would do is load all the user rows into memory. If you have an insane ammount of users, it would hang (crash) mysql. So I basically modified it to only load one row, since that's all it needs to check if certain tables exist.

I noticed you were online an hour ago. Can it be that your back to save us with this hack you've created?? Oh please oh please oh please. It's a great idea and thing to have, just need some assistance.

I really give up now and DO NOT recommend this hack to anyone. Its not stable and I can honestly say I've spent over 15 hours over a few months on this alone with nothing to show.

This is what I did today. Realizing that I had a few issues with my forums I contacted vbulletin support. Their suggestion was to disable all plug-ins and delete all hacks. I did that and still had issues. Next I was suggested to create a completely new style and all templates would be default. I did this and it seemed to resolve all my issues. Going ahead with a working style now I deleted all my other styles. From this I assumed I had a clean slate and no bugs or issues to deal with if I was to reinstall this paypal hack. Well I can honestly say that I shouldn't have wasted my time. After reinstalling it on a new working style I was still having the same issue of the members not showing up after they donated. I manually added the member and this still didn't affect my goal. Don't know what else to say, this hack wasted over 15 hours and nothing to show and I installed this paypal hack in 10 mins working flawlessly if anyone is interested. http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/show...ghlight=paypal

Good luck if anyone can pinpoint these issues that seems impossible to resolve.

I will see if I can get permission to re-release this as I have my own modded version as this one messes up each time you update your forum.

How do I uninstall this excatly? Do I have to delete every file one by one? I can't seem to find a link to uninstall

http://www.yoursite.com/forums/admin..._uninstall.php
or
http://www.yoursite.com/admincp/dona..._uninstall.php

Depending on how you have your forums set up there should be an uninstall file you use. I always had "problems" so I just manually deleted the files and reverted the ones that this hack affected.
