I want to put buttons in the teaser forums "forum info area" so people can subscribe easier.

This isn't easly possible. You really need to post a link to the mypaymentpal.php script, where all subscriptions must originate from. As this script has to check a variety of things, including if they currently have a pending or active status in the subscription, which is then sent via POST to mysubstore.php
Perhaps in the future, we can have a redirec link in mypaymentpal.php to be able to link to a particular subscription option, but I'm not sure if that's easily possible.

The redirect link is a good idea. I'm not sure at this point but I think it may be alright to set the mysubstore script to accept both GET/POST info. I stuck with the post data as I felt it was more secure and less prone to someone trying to flood the scripts. A forum link will need to pass a group number via get to the script so that a custom key can be generated for that prospective subscription. This key needs to be generated for all subscriptions so that they can be cross checked against incoming 'completed' sign ups. If we don't have a matching key the subscription request didn't come from us. This may be overkill to some but I thought it was just being safe.

After looking things over this is probably best done with some modification to .threads
What is needed is a function that can be called, passing what group is needed to it, and having the function return the correct signup button. This isn't all that difficult but it will require digging into .threads
