Easy to install and a very nice mod.
Great support and a friendly support bunch.

Thanks for the feedback! :)

Chris

Chris when I clear all awards then re-add them it gives donators who haven't donated in over a year an award. Is there a way to set the award to expire one year after the donation was made? Thanks.

Please post any questions regarding pro features on our website in the proper forum. We are not allowed to discuss pro options on vB.org. Thanks

Chris

is it possible to display the donation bar on the contribute page?

DragonByte Tech: vBDonate - Donation Bar Settings > Show Donation Bar On
Leave blank to show on all pages.

Add vbdonate to the setting, Show Donation Bar On found in the group, Donation Bar Settings.

Chris

Left blank but it's still not showing on the contribute page
http://puu.sh/1oLf8

The show donation bar already has "index,vbdonate". It shows only on index but doesn't show on vbdonate :/

Could you pm me a admin account and a link to your site and I will see what's going on.

Chris

ah I figured.

Donation Bar Location

The bar will only display on these 2 options
Global Above Forums
Global Below NavBar

it won't show if you select "Forum Home Above Footer"

Ahh yeah, I forgot about that, it won't show on that location on the donation page as it is only on forum home.

Chris

Allowing donation status or secondary usergroup to expire (subscriptions) after a specified amount of time would be a huge plus to this mod. It seems to be the most requested feature. As for how you would deal with people whose groups were changed manually or by other software, I would only give this 'expiration' option to people who use it for the secondary group.. Besides, I would still prefer to have this option and if problems arise with a user being downgraded somehow (not possible on my forum -- we don't use secondary groups for anything else), I could manually deal with those few issues.

Wondering if you can help, someone donated I manually approved it but its now not showing anywhere

Thanks

It is under consideration for future update, I know it is a needed feature, just trying to find the best way to do it with the minimal amount of support.

If you pm me a admin account I can look into it for you.

Chris

How can i set a payment mannualy?

Ty in advance!

On the Contribution List pages there is a block at the bottom for Add Contributor Manually.

Chris

Oh...Ty Chris !!! :D

Not a problem, glad to help.

Nice update, I will install it asap, I already voted for the mod.

Fixed a issue in v1.4.0 with the donation page showing up double when viewing, vbdonate.php?do=donate

Re-download the files and import the xml, no need to update the files.

Chris

Added another fix, same procedure as before. This one fixes the dropdowns for undisclosed and anonymous not showing up on the donation page if you allowed them.

Chris

When will you be releasing the addon that I have seen at TBG... I would really like to see this out soon as many of our community users like to see who donated.

I don't understand what you mean, could you elaborate?

Chris

The added feature to the donation mod. That will show who donated on the homepage. In the cmps module.

The modules for the vBAdvanced page are a part of the Pro version and are not available in the Lite.

Chris

hmm.. will the goal meter reset by itself once the current goal expires? If not, how do I reset it without deleting last month's confirmed contribution list?

Thanks.

Yes the Goal Meter will reset it's self to zero once the current goal period expires.

Chris

Correct, the total contributions is how much your site has received since installing the mod.

Chris

Well vBDonate did not win MOTM again, but it now can be nominated for January's MOTM by clicking on the Nominate for MOTM

Hi Chris. Just installed the mod and find it covering everything i need. thx!

i have a problem on my forum that actually does not have to have anything to do with vBDonate but when i disable vBDonate in Plugins and Products, the problem is gone.

problem shows when posting using Quick reply. after submit the comment the users get the pop up error: Changes made in the Editor will be lost.

confirming with Stay on page sometimes results in double post.

any ideas?

thx

Hmmm that is a strange one, can you disable all your othe mods and then see if the issue still presents it's self, if it don't re enable each mod one by one till you find out which one is conflicting with vBDonate.

Chris

hi again Chris.

i have disabled all mods i have (even the blog and the cms) except vBDonate but the problem is still here :(

I guess I would need to look in the acp and see for myself, could you pm me a full admin account, a link to your site, and a link to this thread so I know what it's for.

Chris

ok. sending u PM

Ok I'll check it out later today when I get a chance.

Chris

Above issue has been solved on the users site. :)

Chris
