FAQ

How can I add Donate button to my website?

You can add the button to your page or post by clicking on “[]” button in the content edit block using the Visual mode. If the button isn’t displayed, please switch Donate settings and copy the shortcode that is displayed in the preview block.

You can also add a Donate Widget.

How can I use my own button?

You should switch the tab you need, and select the setting “Custom Button Image”, then “Upload an image” or “Paste image URL”.

What images can I use?

The size of the image must be no more than 170×70 and no smaller than 16×16. You can upload only image files (.png, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .bmp, .ico, .tif, .tiff, .jpe, .svg, .svgz).

I have an image I want to use, but it was uploaded a while ago. How can I use it?
