PP button: user select amount/freq?

I am setting up a donations page and would like to have the ability for the visitor to give on a regular basis (e.g., $25 1x/month) as well as offer one time donations.

I understand in PP this is called a subscription. Do I have to make a button for each possible giving option (both amount and frequency) or is there a way I can set up a Subscription button that the user can then select/input how much and how often?

Thank you.

eCart does not support subscriptions with paypal. setting up a subscription service would hand coding. we offer support for hand coding through our Premiere support service.

I also have WA's Free Tools installed, but I'm pretty sure this is E-cart. Using the Insert Tab> PayPal, I click on Insert PayPal Subscription Button and get the attached image wizard. Definitely looks like WA.

the subscription button is available from Free tools, not eCart.

free tools does not support using one button for a subscription or one time donation, you would need to use separate buttons for each.
