PayPal Easy Donate - vB 3.6 Details »»

|||||||||||||||||||||||||
Hack Description
This hack is the easiest way to add the ability to accept PayPal donations for your site. You simply upload 2 php files, and a couple of images and then import the product XML and thats it! No messing round with template edits or anything like that, its all done for you!  Also includes a vB CMPS Module so you can use this hack on your vB CMPS pages. - Note: Module has not been updated to add latest currencys. The vB CMPS is basicly just a straight port of DementedMindz excellent Paypal Module (dropdown) On vBa CMPS modified so that it can be setup from the AdminCP. Many thanks to DementedMindz for allowing me to mod his module. Some features of this hack are:
Please note that you have to have either a Business or Premiere PayPal account, else you will need to upgrade to one of these before you can accept donations. Its easy to do, just follow the guide on the PayPal site. Also note that this is a product, not a plug-in. You must import it using the import product feature in the Admin CP. I will try and offer support, but work and family commitments mean I dont have much free time. This is a work in progress and currently a beta version. This script has been confirmed as working on
Add Ons Colonel Ingus has made quite a nice flash addon for this hack. Full details of this addon are here - http://www.vbhackers.com/f76/audible...144/#post51661 Well worth checking out and seeing if it can enhance your donations page. Known Bugs vB Donations Hack - None on a standard vB 3.6.X install. However, if you use custom templates the automatic donate link insertion may not work. If thats the case, you will need to edit the navbar template manually as listed in the 2nd post. vB CMPS Module - Wont work with Euros for some bizare reason, under investigation. - Not updated to add new V1.32 currencys yet. This has been tested in a totally clean install of vB 3.6 and in my live and hacked site as well. Changelog Version 1.32.366 (26th May 2007)
Version 1.32 (9th January 2007)
Version 1.31 (6th August 2006)
Upgrade Instructions The 1.31 release for vB 3.6 is identical to the 1.31 vB 3.5 release. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=113159 No upgrading is necessary if you were running the 1.31 version on your vB 3.5 board. Make sure you select overwrite when you import. Credits Huge thanks to DementedMindz who made my V1.31 code XML compliant I have been inspired by Cloudrunners PayPal Donations and Cybernetec's Cyb Paypal. Both have their good points, but neither were quite what I wanted, which is what inspired me to write this. Thanks also to Paul M and hambil in helping me work out how to insert the donate link without any manual edits. Also, espically to DementedMindz for his assistance, advice, and use of his vB CMPS module. Much appreciested guys And finally, a huge thanks to Boofo who was a great help in making the 1.30 release and supplied the new template, and much help.

Bill,
Why is this happening? I have installed per the directions, but I had to manually edit my "header" (which is where the navbar is) to add the Donate link. But it points to mysite.com/billspaypal.php? rather than mysite.com/forums/billspaypal.php? Also, even if I manually insert the "/forums" in the address bar to test it, none of the images are coming through (because they likely are missing the /forums as well. How do I fix?

Okay - I fixed the images issue. Had to upload them into my custom_style/misc folder. So that's done. But I can't get the following code to work right on the navbar, so that it picks up the /forums ... Code:
<!-- PayPal Donations -->
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="billspaypal.php?">$vbphrase[billspp_donate]</a></td>
<!-- /PayPal Donations -->

1.32.366 is now available for download.
1.32.366 is simply version 1.32 modified to make use of the new template hooks that were implemented from vB 3.6.6 onwards. If your 1.32 version is working fine there is no need to upgrade. The benefit of this version is that it should be more likely to work on boards with modified templates and styles, and much more likely to continue to work when new versions on vB are released. Please note that vB 3.6.6 is the absolute minimum requirement for 1.32.366 to work. People using vb3.6 to vb3.6.5 beed to use the attached 1.32 zip.

Have you tried using Code:
<!-- PayPal Donations -->
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="../forums/billspaypal.php?">$vbphrase[billspp_donate]</a></td>
<!-- /PayPal Donations -->
or as a last resort Code:
<!-- PayPal Donations -->
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://www.mysite.com/forums/billspaypal.php?">$vbphrase[billspp_donate]</a></td>
<!-- /PayPal Donations -->
One of those should work in this case.
