For those of you using Vba CMPS, and are having trouble getting the manual placement of the Donation Menu link and dropdown. Here is what I did,

Locate your FAQ link (or any link you want the Donation link to follow), then place the
$donation_link_menu variable on the next line after it.

Locate the "<!-- NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->" comment and place the $donation_link_menu_options variable 1 or 2 lines after it.

Save your Navbar template and refresh the page. It should be working now.

It's not clear in the AdminCP as to where to put these variables and I was initially placing them together one after the other, and it was screwing up my style.

EDIT: Also, I added these variables to the global POST variable section in vba CMPS.

Hopefully this was of some help to someone,

Jim

How about a Donor badge in the postbit for those that donated?

Sorry LITE version is a little behind and has it in V2 LITE these same instructions. Will be releasing it tomorrow or next day. Have to finish another PRO feature update tomorrow first.

PRO edition has this with medal/award for a certain specified amount donated they get X medal/award on certain increments you specify. Or it can be just set to ONE medal/award for donating period no hierarchy for donating more.

Sorry this will be a lot easier in V2 update coming tomorrow or next day. It combines Payment System and Donation System as well as Donation System CMPS for you guys for one quick simple installation.

It will automatically add the variables to CMPS and so on.

As a user of the V2 Pro I can tell you that this mod is probably the most important mod I have installed on my forum.

Best part is it DOES EVERYTHING AUTOMATICALLY!

But then again...all of AW's mods are like this.

Are you considering to add e-gold to your donation methods?

So far you have paypal and credit cards through google as payment methods.
Other popular methods are e-gold, online bank transfers, money bookers & western union. It would be great to see more methods integrated. online bank transfers are already competing with the popularity of credit cards in Europe and will likely become the major way of payment.

Yes I can support ANY form of payment and WILL be increasing the payment methods just need people to let me know what they want and consider it done. I am working on a lot of things at the moment on PRO. Another BIG update is coming this week. With an Awards system and so on. So hit me up on the site for PRO information.

For now turn off the plugin called: Donation System Menu/Bar

That will fix error but wont have a donation bar.

I will need to see your site URL to take a look more into this.
