Paypal Donation Button

The Grand Pooh-Bah · May 27, 2006, 09:11:05 AM

Is there a plugin where users can make a donation via paypal to help pay for all the bandwidth they are enjoying?

Joachim Müller · May 27, 2006, 09:41:02 AM

If you don't want your users to pay for getting a particular photo printed, but just display a paypal icon on each and every page that the user can click on to just donate some money, then incorporate the paypal image and the surrounding link into your custom theme. No plugin needed, just a plain theme customization. As it is suppossed to show up on all coppermine pages, you can simply put it into themes/yourtheme/template.html
Moving from plugins sub-board to themes sub-board.

You make it sound simple. But I'm not quite sure where or how to add the button. I'm using theme Terra

Joachim Müller · May 27, 2006, 10:09:46 AM

Wherever you want it to appear. Just plain HTML needed. If you don't tell me where you want it to appear, I can hardly recommend anything. Post a screenshot with the section highlighted where you want to paypal button to appear. Attach it to your posting using "additional options" when composing your message.

Do you want the code for the button?

Joachim Müller · May 27, 2006, 10:44:04 AM

No, just insert it as suggested. Modify your custom theme as suggested below:

That didn't work to well. I got the button but the rest of the page changed.

Joachim Müller · May 27, 2006, 01:34:51 PM

Works exactly as advertized: I used the FTP account you sent me to change the theme as suggested, making the word "donate" show up on your page. Use a regular FTP app and a plain text editor, not some crap like MS Frontpage or similar.

The Grand Pooh-Bah · May 27, 2006, 05:43:23 PM

Added it with Dreamweaver.

Tranz · May 27, 2006, 05:56:28 PM

Go into DW settings and tell it not to modify code automatically.

The Grand Pooh-Bah · May 27, 2006, 07:09:09 PM

Thanks....Now I need to get my Forum Name moved to the Center or Right of the image and the same size as in the lower section of included image. Can you help with that?

Thanks
