    Post by Macca_96 February 23rd 2013, 4:00 am

    Can I make a donation widget? Also I cant see any donate link on the site. And how does donating work? Is there a predefined amount of credits you can donate at one time like 10 credits min? How does it work?

    I do not see any of the footer links. You know it is against Forumotion's Terms of Service to remove some of the links.

    Only logged in members, not guests, can see the donation link.

    The link will be called Contribution.

    But you should be able to see the footer. Thats what I thought you wanted to see cause of the ToS violation you were saying. Guests can view the Welcome page

    I can see the footer links on other pages, but I want to see the donation link.

    Edit:
    After using a test account, I can confirm that the donation link does appear.

    I think the Navbar menu is causing this problem. Remove it & check.

    Okay, but its better to get the footer links in place than to risk your forum from getting deleted due to removal of footer & not following the TOS.

    Well, all I did was follow tuts for the Navbar and FMChat. If that hides the footer, shouldnt Forumotion be at fault? I didnt manually delete it. I wouldnt know how.

    For FMChat, please read this.
    https://help.forumotion.com/t120805-immediate-removal-of-fm-chat-validate-registration-field-tutorial-codes

    Its upto you what you want to do with these codes. If i was you, I wouldn't risk adding codes to my forum which can cause problems.

    Yes.

    So does that mean we cant have FMChat installed?

    And I removed it. Both the CSS and java but still no home footer.

    According to that announcement, it was just the FMChat and the validation of registration fields causing the mess. I never had the reg fields installed.

    Thats okay. Did you remove the Navbar menu? Maybe, thats causing the footer to be removed.

    Yes, you should not install FMChat.

    I'll disable it BUT since the navbar operates on all pages, I would assume the footer would not be displayed on all pages.
