This is why I am thinking of removing some of that area.

I have read around and found the way to remove the xxx of xxx amount and the xx% has been reached
the progress bar is still there

Thanks alot !!!

swiper, just wanted to let you know, I hit my $250 goal, and in the admincp for the donation bar, I changed the message, go to http://www.shotcritic.com to see, and we still picked up another $100, not bad, $350 in about four days! Just fyi, the links and stats are there, to see how much, here's the link, http://www.shotcritic.com/forums/don...o=donationlist not making this up, and I started the donations with my own $5.

All the best, rg sends!

[AWJunkies]

so glad to hear! and congrats on the $$

Hi, Thanks for these mod

I have recd some donation from the members, but i didnot see that donation bar doesnot increase and remain same when i test myself it increase.the bar. what is the problem why the members name is not mention here after they pay.

please help. THanks

[toadyd]

Any idea what might be the problem here? Users don't seem to want to change groups.




Usergroups effected = 2, registered users group which donating members are all part of.
Donated usergroup id = 9, which corresponds to the id of the usergroup i have created for donating users to be moved to... But once payment has been sent, and an admin has confirmed it they remain in usergroup 2.

No one else seems to be reporting this so i'm guessing it must be something i've missed. I'd be greatful for any suggestions though.

[AWJunkies]

You have your settings perfect and thanks for those pictures really helps!!!!!!! 10 stars

They should AUTO be confirmed and moved to your group if the user clicks the link at the end of payment process with paypal.

If they are not clicking it and you MANUALLY add someone or confirm them they do not get moved or sent a thanks message or update there donation time. That is a PRO feature.

So it seems people are not clicking the link back to your site. Try turning off open payment window in new window and that should fix it will kinda force your users to click the link back to your site and it will auto do everything from there.

OR

Upgrade to Donation System PRO and have EVERYTHING automatic through IPN integration

[tmiland]

It would be great if the devs could set the donation bar OFF by default!
Besides that, keep up the great work

[AWJunkies]

Why OFF? 90% of the people use it. And to turn it off for those other 10% is easy and takes 2 seconds.

[tmiland]

So it doesnt pop up on both index and forum when it's installed, i got some unhappy comments about it today... I would prefer to turn it on when i have it translated and customized to fit my site. See?
Many people see that donation bar in 2 seconds mate, thats enough to think we're beggin for money, wich is bad at a site thats 1 week old...

So, i ask again, in another way, where do i turn off the donationbar in the scripts? For future updates i mean.


Regards,
Tommy.
