Hi Mike,

Thanks again for the PHP filter and explaining how the pop-up modal works. I was indeed only using the custom thank you page without the pop-up modal.

There is one final thing I noticed while making my first real donation using the live API key. It all worked perfectly but I noticed in the confirmation email that the name of my foundation was displayed weirdly. There is an apostrophe in the name which was displayed as “'”. Is that something that is easy to fix?

No other feedback on 4.2.0 so far – curious to hear when it goes live!

Cheers,
Thomas

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the fast reply! I actually had a bit of time today so I played around with 4.2.0-beta10. See some comments and questions below:

– All my data and settings were saved perfectly after deleting 4.1.6. and uploading 4.2.0-beta10.

– The main visual difference I see in the embedded form is that the form looks wider than before. I personally prefer the form being a bit less wide as it was in 4.1.6. This only applies to desktop – on mobile it looks the same as before.

– I didn’t have time to check any features related to payment status or emails and invoices etc.

– I used WP Code Snippets to add the second piece of code you sent. It seems to be working perfectly as only “Continuous” is now shown as duration option. My only worry with this is whether it’s user friendly to leave only one option in the dropdown. It gives them the illusion of a choice when there isn’t really a choice at all haha. Do you think it’s possible to create an option in the backend where we can completely remove the duration dropdown and the duration is automatically set to “Continuous” for all donors? Understandable if this is a big ask – just curious 🙂

– Another thing I noticed: I hadn’t actually used filters before but I was interested in using the one for payment frequency as well because I am considering to only allow monthly and yearly (so disabling quarterly). I used the code from your documentation (also in WP Code Snippets), but it doesn’t seem to be working for me. I thought it was related to 4.2.0-beta10 but it’s actually also not working in 4.1.6 for me. I might be doing something wrong because I am quite new to using hooks, but it might be worth for you to check this. The code I used is below:

function kudos_change_frequency_options( array $options ) {
	unset($options['3 months']); // Disable Quarterly.
    return $options;
};
add_filter('kudos_frequency_options', 'kudos_change_frequency_options');

Thanks again for the quick reply and let me know if there is anything else I can check.
I’m hoping my website will go live mid-March – do you have an indication of whether you will update Kudos before that time? Or do you expect it will be safer for me to go back to 4.1.6 for the launch?

Cheers,
Thomas
