Totally confusing setup was created by saqqqq
I have just bought Joomdonation a few days ago and reinstalled it with the new update.

However I find this totally confusing to setup. I am pretty good with joomla and quite experienced but this is quite difficult even to do the basics.

I just want a donation form on an article page, linked to paypal.

I am using the plugin form successfully to load the article with the form on it.

But when I fill the details in and click next, I get a rather useless summary and no where to proceed.

there is no place in the backend which is particulary useful in just defining the basic setup to what I want without over complicating things. there seems to be at least 3 places where one can put a paypal ID in the backend but no where is there a tick box to say which payment option I want to use.

Maybe I am being thick but need help here.

This is how far I have got:

Hi

I just went to the link you sent me and found that there is something wrong with your setting . To allows users to process donation, you need to activate atleast one payment method . Please go to Joom Donation -> Payment Plugins, enable the payment gateway you want to used . After that, everything will work fine .

Please let me know if you need more help from me .

Thanks ,

Tuan

Hi

Could you please send me administrator account of your site so that I can check the setting ? I think there is something wrong with the setting on your site.

I will check it as soon as I receive your site information. You can send it to contact@@joomdonation.com

Thanks ,

Tuan

Hi Tuan,

I just purchased and installed the component and am having the same issue with donation forms being displayed by the plugin. If you find a solution, can you please post here so I can make sure my configuration is correct?

Thank you!

Hi Melanie and saqqqq

I found out the problem . There was a bug in the donation form plugin (the file jdform.zip). The bug was fixed and uploaded to server . So now, please just login to your account, access to Your Orders menu item, download the latest version of the extension and re-install the donation form plugin (the file jdform.zip) .

Thanks and sorry for the bug .

Regards,

Tuan

Possibly related problem... I just upgraded to latest joom donation and once I activated the jdplugin...
I can't get to my donate page (and I do not receive a 404 page not found)

I should also add that I made a menu link to the form and that works fine (although this is not what I want - I want it to be in my content)

maybe I don't understand? I downloaded the latest version today and uploaded it today. When you say "code" you mean the jdonation component zip file right?
