This demo uses the PayPal sandbox. To sucessfully test the product you must register with a paypal developer account, and create a sandbox Business account with the email address tp@pt.com, as well as a personal account for testing.

Installation

copy the four files into extensions/paypal/ (if you choose to change this path you will have to modify paypalCommon::$paypal[notify_url])

Use the sql code above to create a table in the wiki database.

Insert the following line into the end of 'LocalSettings.php' (before the '?>')

require("extensions/paypal/paypal.php");

Modify common.php, setting the email address to make donations to, set the paypal URL to use (sandbox or HTTPS), as well as changing any other options desired.

To check to see if it is installed properly, visit your Version page, eg Special:Version.
