<br />
<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" target="_blank" method="post">

  <input type="hidden" name="business" value="youremail@whatever.com" />
  <input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Website Support Donation" />
  <input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1" />
  <input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD" />
  <input type="hidden" name="tax" value="0" />
    $ 
  <select name="amount">

    <option value="50.00">50.00</option>
    <option value="100.00">100.00</option>
  </select>
  </div>
<br />
<br />
<div align="center"><span class="smallfont">Select Your Donation Amount And Then Press The Donate Button.</span></div>
<br />
<fieldset class="fieldset" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0px">
<br />
   <div align="center"><input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-butcc-donate.gif" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!" /><br /><br /></div></fieldset>
   </form>
  </td>
</tr>

in the code make sure you change youremail@whatever.com to your email...

then add a module, you want to add a Template Module

and in the module settings add this

Module Title: Donations
Template to Include: adv_portal_paypal
Use Module Shell Template : yes
Title Row Colspan: 1
and set your Usergroups to what ever you want

hope this helps and if any one wants to edit the code or make it easier to install feel free.

it is 100% html complaint. please let me know if you have any problems

[DementedMindz]

that is his navbar code he showed me... where do you want to add the code to?

[DementedMindz]

cause you can make it in block form like i did or you can do that on the navbar...

[mugz]

i like the block form idea

[DementedMindz]

Screenshots are on my post of the hack.... that is in block form for vbadvanced Trickle also posted shots of his with the code he provided

[mugz]

ok well how do i add the code as im new to vb? i guess its in the admin control pannel?

oh i dont have vba and dont want to add this to my forum i just want to add some thing like this to my forum

[dirtycrow]

this is great and i will install it as soon as it ties in with paid subs.

[Krahl]

Excellent add-on, totally appreciated!

How can we make this so that the user can input their own value? I'd love to have a mix of "suggested" donation levels but also allow the user to type in their own chosen amount. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

[DementedMindz]

thanks click install also.... ill be working on it soon i have a few ideas

[Krahl]

Demented... over on vBa "Ozzie" posted that he'd removed the following code from the module, which removed all of the selection bits. Would this work in such a way that it will allow the user to enter their own amount?

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but04.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">

Thanks a ton for the support of this module.

[DementedMindz]

no that wont look at the second image attached you may want to use that one... it will allow the user to manually enter in there amount
