Welp I have 3 sponsor types going and for somereason they are not lowering in value since I did it... Is it because Im running 3.11 still or is there a problem with 3 running. Also since Ive went to 3 different types of sponsors its not taking payments either...
I'll attach a file which is what it looks like on my site.
Heres the code I used in sponsor.tpl as well.
Random rotation through out the site in the top of the page. Random rotation through out the site in the bottom of the page. One category banner 468x60 *Additional categories available*
For banners top and bottom of every page use the below at ${SPONSORCHARGE2} per day.
For banners on the bottom of every page use the below at ${SPONSORCHARGE3} per day.

Ok, the fallowing attachment is how I have my 3 sponsors setup. As well the code above is what Im using for paypal. The sponsors funds will not add nor will it subtract daily like it does with one sponsor. I have been watching it for over a week and there is no change to each sponsor. Did I set it up wrong?

Nothing wrong with your settings.
I've found/fixed a problem with it deducting (can't upload until any other testing is done since i'd have to revert templates). I can't test promotion or funds addition so easily.

I have two paypal accounts if you want me to test. Better than nothing since it doesn't work as of now anyways. Just fire over the fix and I can give it a whirl.

Welp using exactly what is listed.
Now Ive noticed My deductions using multiple sponsorships are double.
For example somebody paid me for 12months at 20 per month. 20 per month breaks down to roughly 0.67 per day. Now the script should be deducting 0.67 per day. I recieved an email from somebody saying hey they just checked their funds and it appears to be less than then expected to see.
now If somebody paid me $240 for a year 14 days ago it should be 9.38 less, however the script removed 18.76 in the sametime frame. 18.76/2 is 9.38
I have no idea if this is for all multiple sponsorships or just the 0.67 because everybody has opted for my more expensive one. As well I have not tried it on single sponsorships lately because when the need for the multiple sponsorship came up I attempted to use it and now its needed.

Ok I fibbed, I relized I have two sponsor types active. I'll have to relook at my other sponsor type seeing if its deducting properly.
Wouldn't be a big deal if it wasn't for the fact funds are running out and its taking down sponsors.
I know this is sorta mixing things up, but would it be possible to add or modify the e-mail sent out when funds expire to something that advance warns them. So instead of funds being zero, say funds being whatever I/we determine. I would think a admin fill in the blank would be the best way. However a hardcoded amount would work for me. It would be really, really useful now. Rather disconcerning to my sponsors when their banners go down all of the sudden followed by an e-mail when an advance warning would of kept me out of hot water ahead of time.

Sigh... ended up sending out hundreds of spamish "sponsorship ended" emails and demoting all my legit recip links to regular by that test, having stupidly forgotten that using recip as a sponsor type would end up treating all previously existing recip links like sponsors with no funds, but the total funds in the link were $19.90 after 25 hours. Just as should be.
