    I just downloaded the plugin and it seems to be exactly what I need. The only problem is when I select “show” next to the “Designated Funds Checkbox and Section” option on the Form Options page, it doesn’t show up on the live website. My website.

    I have two funds set up and published.

    Also, on the “Funds” page, the description titles that I see is different than in the video shown. I have: “Title, Date, SEO, SEO Title, Meta. Desc., Focus KW”. In the video (Seamless Donations Getting Started) you have “Title, Display on Donation Form, Date”.

    What am I missing?

    I don’t know if these two issues are related, but you’ve got something doing weird things to JavaScript on your page. For example, I can’t right click and get the normal right-click menu to inspect elements. That implies that something is overwriting something in JavaScript — and that’s bound to break things.

    As for the headings, I’ve never seen that, but it could be related to whatever’s running in your JavaScript. You could have a mis-written jQuery selector that’s finding fields and replacing their names and if the selector is too broad, it will find fields it shouldn’t be fiddling with.

    I’m guessing it’s either the theme you’re running or a plugin, but either way, something is a bit more aggressive than it probably should be.

    Try substituting a different (or standard) theme and see if the problems go away.

    P.S. I’m marking this resolved because the problem doesn’t appear to be within the scope of this plugin.

    Thanks for the quick response!

    I have a plugin that disables people from being able to right-click and copy photos. This is important since people were illegally taking photos from my website. I did deactivate it and any other plugin that wasn’t 100% necessary. I also switched to the twenty-fifteen theme but I’m still having the same issue. I’m back to my regular theme but still have the plugins disabled.

    Any other thoughts?

    Thanks.

    That’s probably not the most reliable way to protect your photos, but it’s also not an area I’ve looked at for a few years. As for the missing funds selector, I didn’t see any missing fields, but I also don’t think I looked at Twenty Fifteen on your site.

    The option you need to set to Show is, indeed, Designated Funds Checkbox and Section.

    Ok, so I haven’t been able to figure out what’s causing the Designated Funds Checkbox and Section not to show up.

    What I really need is for people to be able to tell me who the money they donated should go to. Is there a way to add that to another section? I would even be ok with it being a blank field:

    Recipient: (Type Name Here)

    At this point, adding new data fields would be problematic. It’s way easy to add them on the form side (it’s just a new array entry), but there’s no way (yet) to get at that data once the process returns from PayPal.

    Round tripping field data with PayPal in the middle was not part of the architecture I inherited from the pre-adoption plugin and while the form flexibility has increased tremendously, there’s still a lot of work to be done on the round-tripping process.

    ndphoto, can you share what you discovered as to why the Designated Funds do not show up in the form. I just started using the plugin and funds do not show up in the form.
    Thank you for any help.

    The last time we had that problem, someone had hacked their theme and introduced a bug. Try switching themes and see if it fixes the problem. My guess (since theme errors seem to be the most consistent answer to this question) is it’s a theme issue.
