Donation Manager

Creating a Campaign

To get started, navigate the home tab of your Administrator Control Panel, locate Donation Manager in the sidebar, and click Campaigns. Select +Create New Campaign on the top right of the ACP.

Active

Active Campaign must be checked in order for the campaign to show up on the front end of your forum.

Recurring

If Campaign is Recurring is checked, the campaign will continue indefinitely, or until it's end date, and reset at set intervals. Campaigns can reset either daily, monthly, or yearly.

Donation Goal

You must set up a donation goal when you create your campaign.If your campaign is set to recurring, the goal will reset at every set interval. A progress bar with completion percentage will display on the front end for users to see. (Note: numbers in XenForo do not use commas as thousandths separators. example: $5,000 would simply by 5000)

Donation Amounts

You can create pre-set donation amounts for users to choose from, as well as enable or disable custom donation amounts. You may also set a minimum donation amount for custom donations. Donations can be set to recurring, but only if the campaign is recurring. Donations will recur at the same rate that the campaign does. (Note: You cannot set up recurring donations at a rate different than the rate of the campaign.)

Track Donations

[AD] Donate tracks donations made to each campaign. To view a list of donations made to a campaign, simply click on the Donation button on the side of the specific campaign for which you are reviewing.
