Donation/lotus Server Backend Updated

[Mana 3,867]

The Lotus donation system as well as parts of the main Lotus server backend have just received a sizable overhaul courtesy of my friend AltPluzF4.

In general these changes aren't visible to most users (with the exception of the donation system improvements).

But it is now even more scalable than before making it easier to use for me/my admins.

For those curious as to what changes were made, some select changes are listed below:

General:

Per server expiration dates for donors,

improved ban reason support,

proper e-check support for automated donor approval,

proper paypal IPN integration,

single dynamic donation page,

etc.

For admins:

You can now add temp bans properly from the admin backend without my intervention,

admin backend ajax bugs fixed as well improvements (also support for those who disable javascript).

PS:

If something breaks this time, I'm not the one to blame! Blame AltPluzF4 .

In my defense... Mana added this before we fully tested.

There was a slight issue where a space was where it shouldn't have been, which caused two server donations to fail on the second server.

Also, Mana mentioned "(also support for those who disable javascript)." That was slightly wrong. I redid the donation form I had to support disabled javascript. I did not redo the admin backend to support disabled javascript, since most of the features were ajax requests by Mana.

Anyway... I've committed the changes, Mana already applied my fix to the donations, since it was of higher priority.

The backend has now been fixed to work with javascript disabled as well. This will take effect once Mana wakes up and applies the changes I made.

Now that I've ruined my sleep schedule (It's 4:50 AM lol), I'm going to sleep and hope there's no complaints when I wake up...

No better time to make major changes then after midnight when everyone should be sleeping.

Now we just need a few new donors/bans to test the system .

I like the notification of when it tells you when your donator status will expire. Although it's hard to catch with all the instant messages you receive at once, just check it in the console.
