How about having a profile field in the User CP for the paypal button and editing postbit / postbit_legacy template to include the profile field ID if its filled in.

That will then put the paypal button on a users postbit that has the paypal field filled out.

Just an idea.

Thanks for that but this is a specific thread based need rather one for a user to use all the time...we have the donate button in our footer on each page and it works no problem - just when it's inside a post itself the security token error happens.

<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />

some where in the paypal code then, as i think thats the only solution

Thanks - I'll try that. I'll report back success or failure.

No unfortunately that didn't work. Same problem.

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was invalid.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

This is the source code - maybe someone can see an inbuilt reason why this would happen inside a post:

note the extra code you suggested inserting is there.
