Hi,
Didn’t work as was but I added the name of the theme to the path instead and it worked.
Thanks,

Hi,

No, I am not using the Form Field manager add-on but instead some adapted snippets from your github.

Also, just to say that the shortcode I use on the https://wellsforzoe.org/melcycle/ page is just:

[give_goal id=”29595″ show_text=”true” show_bar=”true”]

but it does the trick very well.

It’s unfortunate that the give_totals shortcode doesn’t work as well or in a similar layout stylistically.

Or alternatively it’s a pity that multiple form IDs can’t be used with the give_goal shortcode.

Bye-for-now,

Hi again,

Sorry for not coming back sooner as other things were more pressing and I had a work around as seen on this page https://wellsforzoe.org/melcycle/

To show you what I mean I have set up a test page (https://wellsforzoe.org/test-for-givewp/) for the following shortcode that I just amended from the page you included above (https://givewp.com/documentation/core/shortcodes/give_totals).

[give_totals ids=”29585, 29595″ total_goal=”€10,000″ message=”We’ve raised {total} of the {total_goal} we are trying to raise for this campaign” link=”/donate/” link_text=”Donate here” progress_bar=”true”]

It is also really hard to style the result of this shortcode.

Any help with this would be great.

Thanks Matt,

I see it has been included in the recent update. Very nice to see my little bit of work and suggestion included and I can delete the custom function code now.

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the quick response and I hadn’t tried that as for some reason I completely ignored the fact that you could of course just enter 1 post ID!

That said it doesn’t work for me at all as the goal displays as a % (don’t see how to change that parameter) and it is of course separated from (and above) the amount which also shares the same CSS class selector as the rest of the message.

The standard display works for me but for the “of” and “raised”. Any chance they could get their own CSS class selector so I could make them disappear on occasion?!

Hi,

Firstly I see that this is still open with no replies and Give have always been more on top of their support but maybe it was fixed in an update or un-reproducible etc. and just didn’t get updated here.

Anyway @deadl in the give/includes/country-functions.php file I added the following to the list of Irish States that starts at line 1502 (fitting them within the existing alphabetical ordering).

‘AN’ => __( ‘Antrim’, ‘give’ ),
‘AR’ => __( ‘Armagh’, ‘give’ ),
‘DY’ => __( ‘Derry’, ‘give’ ),
‘DO’ => __( ‘Down’, ‘give’ ),
‘FM’ => __( ‘Fermanagh’, ‘give’ ),
‘TR’ => __( ‘Tyrone’, ‘give’ ),

That gave me those counties in the list under Ireland.

Hope that helps,
éamonn

Hi,

No probs on first thing above; I just added them to the Get Ireland States (sic!) list in give/includes/country-functions.php file.

2nd question might be worth looking at however.

Also, where did you get your 2 letter abbreviations for Irish counties from? 3 letters seems the normal convention.

Hi again,

I have since revised the method I am working with this and have turned off all AJAX page transitions (as I believe they were interfering with the loading of the give scripts).

If you want to investigate further let me know and I will turn the transitions on again but in the meantime I will leave them off so the forms work.

Thanks and bye-for-now,

Hi,

Thanks for getting back to me Matt.

I had already looked at the plugins via the “old-fashioned route” (late at night etc.!) and staging, but the new WP.com Health Check plugin is great and very useful.

Unfortunately, it appears to be a conflict between the theme and Give. With all plugins enabled and Twenty Seventeen as the theme all appears fine.

I disabled loading AJAX ‘fade’ for the two donation pages in question and I think I have managed to sort it for the one of them that is a direct load of the form:

https://wellsforzoe.org/donate-offline-by-standing-order/

but the other is still not loading the script first time and needs a refresh to load correctly (incl. the floating labels if that is a hint to what might be happening?).

Have you any wisdom on this for me as it is really affecting the use of the plugin and a site re-design based around another theme is out of the question.

Regards,
éamonn

Hi,

Unfortunately the above CSS simply disabled the theme integrated ‘Read More’ button on slide 1 of all the pages/posts so didn’t help really.

Hi Matt,

Apart from multi-language sites (as @coppermill suggests) it is also useful to hold money in a PayPal a/c in multiple currencies for using those currencies – for ‘foreign’ expenses, purchases, transfers etc. – rather than exchanging to the local currency. We hold donations as USD, GBP and our local currency EUR. Since we started using Give for donations via PayPal we have of course not received any other currency donations which has been noted – people like to donate in their local currency and we like to receive their donation in the currency they choose. It also has ‘tax effective giving’ consequences.

Hi,

Thanks for getting back on this.

Ireland doesn’t have Gift Aid but it does have a similar tax-back system (which has changed a bit over the years but the link above should describe it well or via this link which has a path to the various forms). Unfortunately the Irish system requires further info from the donor but at least has been simplified post-2013 and the submitted details covers 4 years.

I already trialled a change of the GB instances to IE in your plugin in the following files:

/assets/js/gift-aid-for-woocommerce-public.js
/assets/js/gift-aid-for-woocommerce-public.min.js
/php/class-checkout.php

and the markup indeed appeared when the WooCommerce checkout was changed to Republic of Ireland. So I know I could do it that way for the moment as we are not yet registered in the UK.

But it would be great to have the option:

if set to UK show settings 1, if set to IE show settings 2, if anywhere else show none.

A fork for IE would work as well and be really fantastic, but it’s another plugin to add. If it was just a checkbox for IE to tell us to contact the person, and send a form for completion, signing and return (like with all the other IE charities I have found), this might be possible simply via the one plugin?

Since I found your plugin I have been investigating all this, and a more advanced route, possibly best achieved via a fork, would be a system that added a checkbox to reveal markup to fill in another form field (PPS no.) with those details added to the order (and orderer’s) details. I think this might be ideal but might need a signature field (which I looked into last night and seems a little more involved!).

Anyway, I would love to investigate this with you but maybe via e-mail?

Thought I’d add this here in case others are looking for examples of use (my own and another I found):

Wells for Zo? – https://wellsforzoe.org/shop/
https://shop.mndassociation.org/

By-the-way I don’t mind sharing my site for others to see it in action:

Just add something to the Wells for Zo? shop and checkout. Once you set the country to UK you will see the Gift Aid markup and my setting and stylings.

Thanks again Dave.
