 * I think i’m going to rename the plugin so i can host it here and you can all 
   get automatic updates rather than hosting it on my server, As you would have 
   to keep checking my site for updates.
    Where as if it was hosted here your control
   panel would notify you of updates. So to rectify this issue i will make a fork
   of Donate Plus and call it Donate Extra . Hopefully i will have it live on the
   WP Plugins site very soon.

 * You can get Donate Extra here [http://www.exousialinux.org/donate-extra/](http://www.exousialinux.org/donate-extra/).
   
   I have re named it and sorted all code renaming and i just deactivated my Donate
   Plus and Activated Donate Extra and all i had to do was the settings page ,it
   kept my old test donation ok.
 * P.S. Note your paypal IPN will change so make sure you update PayPal !
 * Any problems shout.
    I should have Donate Extra on the WP Plugins very shortly.

 * Right i have successfully unistalled Donate Plus using the option to start from
   the Admin section to remove the tables.
    And re installed the new Donate Extra
   and all seems well. This version includes the deciaml point fix too.
