Donations
The donations feature introduced
in version 5.6.0 allows customers to introduce an amount of
their choice and then go through checkout to send the funds on
to the store owner. This is typically used if you want accept
donations on the store or if you need customers to pay for a service.
Setting up the donations page
ASP Version: Save products.asp as donations.asp
and then in code view find the line
<!--#include file="vsadmin/inc/incproducts.asp"-->
and change it to
<% explicitid="donation" %>
<!--#include
file= "vsadmin/inc/incspecials.asp"-->
Upload to your server and make sure it is working as it
should.
If you don't want to set up your own donations page
then you can just add a link in your menu to proddetail.asp?prod=donation
and that will show the donations page.
