Donations link?

Software Support
1

Hello,

I am trying to display a donation link for one of our journals. We use OJS 3.2.
Under Payment Types > General Fees there is a note “The Association Membership will appear in About the Journal under Policies, and the donations link will appear above the search function in the right-hand frame”, but I do not know how to enable the donation link.
I enabled the PayPal plugin. I added all the info in the Distribution > Payments. I added an amount under Payment > Payment > General fees.
What did I miss?

Best wishes,
Gabriela

Hi @gabriela,

The language on the payment settings form referring to donations was a leftover from OJS 2.x; I’ve removed it: https://github.com/pkp/ojs/commit/63ab7a44b8956abe6c671fe7f9c249395387cbc9

The donation functionality was also removed; you should be able to add a donation link, depending on your payment method, using a tool like this: Donate Button
