Well i own the forum so i have the administrator account and still cannot see it, only see admin options and donate.

Also i don't use the default groups so i made another administrator group called something different and I don't know why it won't show on that account.

Is there a way to not approve donors and they just show up on the list because I don't want to approve every donation like it gets annoying.

You need to be able to edit donation records so having them show up without approval isn't ideal if you have no editing powers there. Donations could appear even though no money has changed hands and so you need to be able to either approve or delete those records.
Anyone belonging to usergroup 6 (administrator usergroup) should have permissions to approve/delete/add/edit donation records on the misc.php?do=donlist page.

I don't see an option to give permissions to approve/delete/add/edit where would you edit that?

and that page just shows the same nothing no donors.

I am having the same exact problem "unknown22" has specified. I recently put up the paypal donate as an optional service on my forum system. I have done this before in the past and it used to work back in vBulletin 3.8.4 and below. Now I'm using vBulletin 4.0.6 Patch Level 1, and for some reason no matter what the configuration is, the people who donate or try to donate, nothing appears on the donor's list page. I have recieved to donations and trying to find a way to manually add them, and nothing is working. Here is the screen shot below:

Okay, I've got a weird problem with this plugin that I can't seem to solve.

I have the donations set up as follows: 10|1, 20|3, 50|12, 100|36

If a user selects the $10/1 month donation, they get a message back from the paypal stating "The link you have used to enter the PayPal system is invalid. Please review the link and try again."

The $20/3 month and $50/12 month donation goes through to my paypal account just fine.

The $100/36 month returns an error from paypal stating "Invalid Regular period. You must specify valid values for the A3, P3, and T3 parameters for a subscription."

I do have a Business/Premier PayPal Account

I've dinked around with this every way I can and can't figure out where the problems are. I've had a lot of people try to donate, and am losing donation funds daily due to these problems. It seems they only started occurring with the release of vB 4.0.5. Before that all donation levels worked fine. Any ideas?
