[C.Stanley]

I have a usergroup "premium" and i would like to make it where users can click on a donate or premium button/image in sidebar or a tab in navbar and they can donate to become premium members. How do i do this on xenforo? Thank you

You can use the account upgrades function and set amounts that can be donated.

I believe there is also a donation manager add on out there, but it really depends on whether you want to use an add on or not.

Thank you, i have found the upgrade function but i am not seeing where the user would click to donate after the functions are setup.

Purchasing a User Upgrade
Members can purchase User Upgrades from the Account Upgrades page which is accessed via the link in the sidebar on their account page, or from the dropdown menu under their user name on the navigation bar.

Thank you for the link Martok. I guess to make it a clickable "premium advertisement" Image a add on is needed.

If you just want to set up a donation button, add it to the sidebar in one of the ad_sidebar templates.

Some basic PayPal code would be:

<div class="section">
    <div class="secondaryContent">
        <h3>Donate To GlobalHax</h3>
            <div style="text-align: center">
                <form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
                <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
                <input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="<your code>">
                <input type="image" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/GB/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal">
                <img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_GB/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
                </form>
            </div>
            <div class="footnote">Members can also purchase <a href="{xen:link account/upgrades}">{xen:phrase account_upgrades}</a></div>
    </div>
</div>
