(pre-test question Will this also work on a test-site? (the password protected "testvb" folder?) Just don't want to make a bug report in the future if it wouldn't work...

 

[Ozzy47]

It should work on a test site as long as the test site is not on localhost.

Hi there, been very busy testing out new releases for vBulletin, but this upcoming week I will get the chance to test out the new donation mod.

 

[Ozzy47]

Cool, test it out on the new vB 4.2 and lat me know how that goes.

Cool, test it out on the new vB 4.2 and let me know how that goes.

Already have been for a couple of weeks now Ozzy, everything works swell

I know the tab and sublinks probably did not work on 4.2 I just tried it on a 4.2 test site last night.

 

[Freekoid]

Default yes but I have a premium skin installed that uses a different tab/nav css call so as you can see all present and correct.

 

[Ozzy47]

Yeah I have been messing with the new system, and it seems like no matter how I add the tabs, it ignores my permissions who can see certain links, they can see the link, (which I don't want) but if they click on it and don't have perms, they get the error message they should.

 

[IcEWoLF]

The new navigation system will present some issues with some of the addons...
I sometimes wish vBulletin didn't introduce a new navigation system...

 

[Ozzy47]

Yeah I am finding it rather difficult to to get the tab, and links to work together, even by manually adding them in the navigation system, it don't work right. If they were going to add the navigation system, I wish they did it similar to how I did vBNavTabs, but they decider to re write the navbar template completely.

Check this out, Andreas just released this: Navigation Manager Enhancements - vBulletin.org Forum

 

[Ozzy47]

I already looked at that, don't think it quite does everything needed though.

Heheh, I know...
Lets see what vBulletin does to address the different issues.
We will see how customers will take the 4.2 release.

Sorry to ask you Ozzy, but could you give some extra information about that "auto confirm"?
You'll probably will say "what extra info?"

Well,
I just updated it,
and did a new donation,
but I just don't see anything special... That donation is looking like it needs to be confirmed...

(or am I talking to soon... Can it take a few minutes/hours before it gets auto confirmed? Or do I still need to look in my PP-account)

PS: Running it on my test-site + Sandbox (of PP)

 

[Ozzy47]

Is your test site on localhost or on a server?

A server (same server as my live on).

Ok, do you have a PayPal sandbox account set up with both a business and personal account? https://developer.paypal.com/

 

[Valcav]

yes. is it possible because they are "Unverified"?

or that I haven't set up any PM messages?
