There is a handy “Copy shortcode” button at the bottom of the campaign settings page that will copy the shortcode into your clipboard.
To get started add the Kudos Donations shortcode:
[kudos campaign_id="default"]
Here is a list of the shortcode attributes:
- button_label = The label to display for the button.
- campaign_id = ID of the campaign to use for this button.
- alignment = Alignment of the button within container. Can be “center”, “left” or “right”.
- type = Whether to show as a button with pop-up or just the form. Can be “button” or “form”.
e.g:
[kudos alignment="right" button_label="Donate now" campaign_id="default"]
For general information on how to use shortcodes, please visit this page.
-
The donation modal (pop-up) does not appear correctly.
-
This can occur as a result of a conflict with your theme or another plugin and the solution can be different for each website. A quick and easy fix to try is to enable the “Modal in footer” option under the help tab in settings.
