The code to make this is fairly basic so feel free to modify to suit your own needs, but if you do use it then please click install. Thank you.

I would love if you could create a new feature where you could have a small bar on the top of the block or a percent number of donations received and amount left to go and total needed!

could this please be implemented?

kf4eok · #23 12-26-2009, 03:28 AM

installed thanks

Bouncer222 · #24 12-26-2009, 01:33 PM

I installed it but it doesnt appear on the CMS anywhere, I did everything stated under the How to Install Title Image only. How do I make it appear?

You should then see a page like the one below, place the Donations widget to where you want then hit Save.

You need to do this for each Section you want to display it.

For some reason my admin cp page doesnt show up like that, it just has the widgets box and you can click the arrow, but nothing else, something must be messed up..hmm

Bouncer222 · #27 12-27-2009, 11:09 PM

Here is how mine shows up http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...2Dec272003.gif

There does seem to be something wrong with your vB installation. I know earlier (pre-Gold) versions of vB Suite had some serious problems with pre-loaded CMS data so if you've been upgrading from Betas to RCs to Gold then perhaps that's why.

If you're running on a test site, I'd recommend you try a complete fresh install (or upgrade from 3.X) and see if that solves it. If you're running live then temporarily disable all mods you've got installed try and add/move any widgets around to see if that works, if not then submit a bug report over on vbulletin.com.

I upgraded straight from 3.8.4 to gold, and already overwrote all files again with a fresh copy, I am going to try to disable products right now to see if they are causing it although I doubt it kind of because usually products dont have affect on admincp

Bouncer222 · #30 12-28-2009, 10:06 PM

Hmm its too much stretched out, gotta figure out how to make it less wider, any ideas?

jonah1892 · #31 12-29-2009, 02:50 AM

is there anyway to allow custom ammounts to be input by the donator?
