global $wgParser;
global $ipbwiki_paypal;
# register the extension with the WikiText parser
$wgParser->setHook( "paypal", "renderPayPal" );
$ipbwiki_paypal = array();
# CHANGE THE LINES BELOW TO REFLECT TO YOUR PAYPAL BUTTONS!!! (there's no limit on the number of buttons you define)
$ipbwiki_paypal[1] = '<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"><input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick"><input type="hidden" name="business" value="ipbwiki@gmail.com"><input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="IpbWiki PayPal"><input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="1"><input type="hidden" name="cn" value="Optional Comments"><input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="EUR"><input type="hidden" name="tax" value="0"><input type="hidden" name="bn" value="PP-DonationsBF"><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!"></form>';

$input = $part2;
}
$output = '<table border=0><tr><td>'.$form.'</td><td valign=center>'.$input.'</td></tr></table>';
return $output;
}
?>
!!WARNING!!
If the text that you place between the single quotes in the $ipbwiki_paypal[1] variable has any single quotes in it then you mist escape them otherwise IT WILL NOT WORK.
Example:
$ipbwiki_paypal[2] = '<form action="https://... - it\'s fast, free and secure!"></form>'
- works just fine
$ipbwiki_paypal[2] = '<form action="https://... - it's fast, free and secure!"></form>'
- will crash your wiki
Installation
- create a directory ipbwiki in the extensions directory
- place IpbWiki_PayPal.php in the extensions/ipbwiki directory (see code below)
- open the file LocalSettings.php, search for:
?>
and change this to:
require_once('extensions/ipbwiki/IpbWiki_PayPal.php'); // IpbWiki PayPal Extension
?>
- in the function wfPayPalExtension, place the code for your paypal-buttons in the variable $ipbwiki_paypal.
Usage
- the tag <paypal> is translated to the button defined in $ipbwiki_paypal[1].
- the tag <paypal>2</paypal> is translated to the button defined in $ipbwiki_paypal[2].
- the tag <paypal>2 description</paypal> is translated to the button defined in $ipbwiki_paypal[2], additionaly the text 'description' is placed next to the paypal button.
- the tag <paypal>description</paypal> is translated to the button defined in $ipbwiki_paypal[1], additionaly the text 'description' is placed next to the paypal button.
