Documentation was created by WACuser
I have been searching for several hours now, and I cannot find *any* documentation for joomdonation.
In the installation package/readme_first.txt there is a link to documentation.joomdonation.com but joomdonation is not listed on the site.
The documentation link on the joomla extentions also does not link to anything helpful.
I am simply looking for a document on how to start... like how do I embed a donation campaign. Is there anything AT ALL available? Or am I missing something.
Any help is appreciated, because right now I cannot event start

One way to do this is to create a campaign, then go to Menu and create a menu item under a parent menu. Upon adding a new menu item, you'll first need to select a menu item type. Choose, Jdonation=>Donation Form and you'll see the right hand screen change to allow for a campaign selection.
I usually change the alias to something simple, like "donate-now". Using this method you can link to your donation form with short urls like yourdomain.com/menu/donate-now
Or, you can create a "hidden" menu that shows up nowhere, and just use it to create root level links, like
yourdomain.com/donate-now
If you want to embed a form in an article, simply create the article, and put this tag in the article
{jdform 1} where 1 is the id of the campaign on the right side when looking at your campaign listings.
Hope this helps.
