Description (last modified by anna) (diff)
Add a simple implementation of a system for donations to producers. Those users with a PayPal? account should be able to add their PayPal? email address to their profile on Plumi sites.
If a member has added their PayPal? email address to this field, a Donate to Producer button will be displayed on their /author page. It will also be displayed on the video/view page of any of their videos.
The graphic can be created once this functionality has been implemented (note: should be relatively discreet).
This will mean that videomakers can use Plumi as a fundraising tool for future productions, and allow other members/users of the site to make a financial contribution to their video work. It should also be a good selling point for Plumi software as far as independent videomakers are concerned, as they are always strapped for cash.
We can add other services to the list of supported services as we go forward - PayMate? for Australia, Chip-In etc.
