Hey guys! I am trying to create a script to "promote" all my members at once based on some forum measurements. Here is my code (pastebin). I don't know what is wrong. The page is blank and won't even load. Please help. http://pastebin.com/aZeKq1Zw Note: This is within the vBulletin 4.2.2 framework.

Hi, I'm new to the forum so please excuse me if I'm doing something wrong..... I only seek help in learning this cool code I recently started some php coding and experimenting with it. I am a fast learner and know some HTML and CSS so have some background. I really want to create a wordpress plugin. Specifically a payment gateway integration plugin that South Africans can use on their wordpress websites. I live in South Africa and have looked far and wide for people to teach me how to do this, the people I eventually found was insanely expensive and it was impossible to get that education from them..... I then started browsing the web learning stuff online youtube,google etc..... this is how I ended up here... Basically I would like to create a payment plugin for my and other peoples wordpress websites and integrate it into any theme....but I do not know how.... I have a sample code for the Payfast payment gateway that they provided and this can be found here: https://www.payfast.co.za/developers/php I basically need someone to teach me how to start and develop this plugin so I can use it in any theme with an admin side control panel and everything... I need to understand the code as well so I actually learn while I do...then test the plugin..... I'll attach the file (Payfast_sample.php) with the php code sample i got from the above URL please help !!! would like to be able to develop my own plugins as I have many ideas.....only lack knowledge to implement Thanks a lot Wollie333 Payfast_sample.php

What I am aiming to do, with some help as I am new to PHP.. Is that I want to create a shortcode for this plug in so that I can use the shortcode in a selected footer area or post. Thanks for your time in advanced.. really need help.
