Example Usage

Buy Now Button

You create a "Buy Now" button by using the following shortcode. Just define price or you can define a custom product name as well.

[ap-buy-now price="9.99"]

[ap-buy-now email="me@site.com" product="My Cool Plugin" price="9.99"]

You can include your own button image (this is common to all button types):

[ap-buy-now button_image="http://www.mydomain.com/my_button_image.gif"]

Subscription

You create a subscription button the same way you create a buy-now button. Only here you need to define two types of payments: the initial payment and the recurring payments.

[ap-subscribea product="My Cool Widget" price="9.99" prices="9.99"]

Other parameters include: p1type (initial) and p3type (recurring) = Day/Week/Month/Year

period1 (initial) and period3 (recurring) = length of period in the above unit types.

[ap-subscribea product="My Cool Widget" price="0" prices="9.99" p1type="Day" period1="7" p3type="Month" period3="1"]

Donate

You can just use the default shortcode or you can define a custom description and/or price for each button.

[ap-donate]

[ap-donate description="Please Donate To My Cause!" price="5.00"]
