Donations by Siropu [Paid] 1.5.2

[Siropu]

It has a "Donations" page linked from the navbar.

Dumb question - how do you point people to the donation form once it's set up? I don't see how the users would access it.

Never mind, I found the navigation link and had to adjust usergroup permissions.

Just found this addon, it looks good for my needs, considering of buying it.

Just a pre-buy questions:
1. It is possible to have goal and random donations at the same time (for example forum licence and hosting expenses as a goal and "Buy me a coffee" beside it) ?
2. Will it work with any theme (I'm using Bolt form Russ - PixelExit) ?

It is possible to have goal and random donations at the same time (for example forum licence and hosting expenses as a goal and "Buy me a coffee" beside it) ?

Yes, but you have to create a HTML widget and use the donate link without a goal attached to it. Easy.

Will it work with any theme

Yes, it should.

Hi!
Is it possible that only choosen "Goals" be visible in the widget, and also isi it possible to make all "Goals" being visible only on the donation page please?

 

[Siropu]

Not in the current version.

Kindly asking, how can I do that? Many thanks for help.

 

[Siropu]

Kindly asking, how can I do that?

Here's the easiest way:

ACP > Appearance > Widgets > Add widget > HTML

Widget key: siropu_custom_donate_html
Title: Give it the title you want
Display in positions: Forum list: Sidebar

Template:

<xf:include template="siropu_donations_widget_donate">
    <xf:set var="$goals" value="{{ [] }}" />
    <xf:set var="$options.message">
        Your custom message here
    </xf:set>
</xf:include>

Replace "Your custom message here" with anything you want to display above the donate button. Leave empty for nothing.

Check "Advanced mode" and save.

I have started setting this up and need to change the messages a member will see like the thankyou for donating and the thread it creates each time. There are so many templets and not understanding code at all I am at a loss as to what ones I need to edit and how I would edit these without being a coder myself.

Is there no support on this product at all?

Got a small problem... all the amounts disappeared against users when I upgraded to the latest version and XF2.3. Rebuilt donor stats... didn't fix it.

You have to set the user group permission "View donation amount"

 

[Anthony Parsons]

Ah... something new. Thanks.

Since we aren't using a PayPal business account we don't have access to the API so donors aren't automatically being promoted. That's fine, however we have it configured that donations are supposed to be added to a thread so we're alerted and can check PayPal. That's not happening. The users are showing up under List Donations as Unconfirmed but no post is being created. What am I doing wrong?

 

[Siropu]

Have you set a valid User ID?

 

[thunderclap82]

Have you set a valid User ID?

Are you talking the user name or their ID number? I've tried ID number, I suppose I can try name.

 

[Siropu]

Are you talking the user name or their ID number?

In Donations admin options, there is a "User ID" option where you set the user ID that will be used as thread/post author.
