I want to distinguish my personal paypal transactions with those associated with my website. In other words, the user would not have their payment added to the website automatically; instead, I want to enter it manually to distinguish from a personal transaction, another website of mine, or the transaction from my main website. How would I do this?

In addition, how can I change the donations earned from last 30 days to the last year?

You can specify an item ID in the settings page to limit which transactions are included in the tip jar. If you don't specify an item ID, then all transactions will be counted. I think. The item ID comes straight from PayPal, so your PayPal button (or whatever) should have an item ID associated with it.

There is not currently a way to manually enter transaction information. But if you want to do it the hard way, put a row in the {paypal_log} table.

If you want to include all transactions in the last year, in the settings page specify "ignore transactions older than: 365" days.

I hope that helps!

That helps quite a bit. I guess my reason for wanting manual tip increases is so if a website user donates in a different way that paypal (such as money order), then I could add his or her contribution to the list. I will try out the hard way to see how it works for me. If nothing else, I will make everything manual, and just alter the mod itself (in the output line) with donation increases. I also have a 2checkout account that I would like to record transactions as well, so since I am a difficult bugger, I need to do things differently.

Thanks for pointing out the obvious way to change time length. I change it to -1, and it displayed -1 in the text, It was easy to alter the message in the module itself though.

I have fixed the -1 bug and added some international currency support, but I'm waiting to test the changes against 4.5.2 before committing.
