Description
A GiveWP add-on which allows you to add a file to any GiveWP donation form and have it appear for your donors to download via the donation confirmation page and email confirmation.
This has many potential use-cases. Here’s a few ideas:
- Provide a PDF Gift Certificate to those who donate over a certian amount
- Give a MP3 song as thanks to your donors
- Give a ZIP file (like a free WordPress plugin) to your donors
FEATURES
- Choose custom title text for the confirmation page
- Choose custom link text for the download
- Upload your file via the Media Library Uploader
- Optionally set a minimum donation amount per form for the Gift to be available to the donor.
- Add the link to your Admin notification email and/or the Donor notification email via a custom Email tag.
- Forms that don’t have uploads are not affected in any way.
BASIC USAGE
At the bottom of each GiveWP form edit screen you’ll find the GiveWP Receipt Attachments settings area. You configure that per form. This includes the minimum donation amount necessary for the attachment to be available (optionally).
If you upload a file and configure the settings there, the attachment title and link will appear automatically before the Donation Receipt table on your Donation Confirmation page.
In order to have the attachment link appear in your donation receipt emails, go to “Donations > Settings” then the Emails tab. In the Donation Receipt email field add {attachmenturl} anywhere you like. Below that field you’ll see a full list of all the available email tags.

Installation
Minimum Requirements
- WordPress 4.0 or greater
- PHP version 5.3 or greater
- MySQL version 5.0.15 or greater
Automatic installation
Automatic installation is the easiest option as WordPress handles the file transfers itself and you don’t need to leave your web browser. To install Give Receipt Attachments, login to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins menu and click “Add New”.
In the search field type “Give Receipt Attachments” and click Search Plugins. Once you have found the plugin you can view details about it such as the the point release, ratings and description. Most importantly of course, you can install it by simply clicking “Install Now”.
Manual installation
The manual installation method involves downloading the plugin and uploading it to your server via your favorite FTP application. The WordPress codex contains instructions on how to do this here.
Updating
Automatic updates should work like a charm; as always though, ensure you backup your site before doing any plugin or theme updates just in case. If you have any trouble with an update, try out our WP-Rollback plugin which lets you revert to previous versions of WordPress plugins or themes with just a couple clicks.
