Add a beautifully styled donation or tip button that links to any payment URL — PayPal, Ko-fi, Stripe, Buy Me a Coffee, and more.

== Description ==

AddonLogic Tip Jar Donate Button makes it effortless to add a donation or tip button anywhere on your site via a simple `[donate]` shortcode — no payment gateway integration required on your end, just link to your existing payment page.

**Features:**
* Works with any payment URL: PayPal.me, Ko-fi, Stripe Payment Links, Buy Me a Coffee, Liberapay, etc.
* Optional suggested-amount quick-pick buttons above the main button
* Three button styles: Primary (filled), Outline, Minimal (text-link)
* Three button shapes: Rounded, Pill, Square
* Fully configurable button label, background colour, and text colour
* Open in same tab or new tab
* Customisable currency symbol / code
* All shortcode attributes can override settings per-placement

== Installation ==

1. Upload the `tip-jar-donate-button` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
2. Activate via **Plugins > Installed Plugins**.
3. Go to **Settings > Tip Jar** and enter your payment URL and preferred defaults.
4. Place `[donate]` in any post, page, or widget.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Does this process payments directly? =
No. The button is a styled link to your existing payment page (PayPal.me, Ko-fi, etc.). No card data ever touches your WordPress site.

= Can I have different buttons pointing to different URLs? =
Yes. Override the URL per-shortcode: `[donate url="https://ko-fi.com/mypage"]`.

= Can I show suggested amounts? =
Yes. Enable "Show Amount Buttons" in settings or use `[donate show_amounts="yes" amounts="5,10,25"]`. Each amount button appends `?amount=X` to the payment URL — most payment providers support this.
