That is an option on the Product Field, there a few different field types for the Product Field. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/multiple-membership-contact-form-with-donation-and-paypal-can-this-be-done#post-25301 Wed, 11 May 2011 11:51:35 +0000 victoremile 25301@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks Carl,<br /> Yes, by membership I mean membership dues for our organisation. We do not have any membership structure for our web site - anyone can visit the site without restriction.</p> <p>If I understand you correctly we could sum up the membership dues in the transaction, and then use a "donation" product type to add the donation to the sum, forming a single transaction with a single total cost. Could we give the user the freedom to specify the value of the donation, or would we have to have different donation levels specified?</p> <p>I should point out that the reason to include the donation within the membership dues transaction is simply to make it easier and quicker for the user. User's won't have to fill out another form and go through a separate PayPal transaction to make a donation, which I think is the only other option. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/multiple-membership-contact-form-with-donation-and-paypal-can-this-be-done#post-25289 Wed, 11 May 2011 11:24:12 +0000 Carl Hancock 25289@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>By Membership, what exactly do you mean? Membership to your WordPress site or Membership to the organization?</p> <p>Gravity Forms should be able to do either. You would use Gravity Forms along with the PayPal Add-On if it's simply to collect membership dues. If you need to register and create a user on your site you would also use the User Registration Add-On.</p> <p>Please note that PayPal doesn't support Non-Donation and Donations in a single transaction so you wouldn't want to use the Donation field on a form containing standard Product fields. But you can still add a Product field to your form and name it "Donation". The Donation field is a field type specific to PayPal's Donation transaction type. The Product Field can be used for anything. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/multiple-membership-contact-form-with-donation-and-paypal-can-this-be-done#post-25270 Wed, 11 May 2011 09:34:50 +0000 victoremile 25270@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm looking for a WP plugin that will meet our organisation's membership collection needs. Here is the scenario:</p> <p>We need to collect membership fees and donations from our association members. In single transaction the user must be able to purchase multiple memberships (eg. husband pays for himself and his wife in a single transaction). The user must enter the contact information for each individual member that is being paid for. Memberships have a fixed price.<br /> We also want to have a donation option available to the user when they are purchasing the membership(s). We prefer that the donation value be set by the user to whatever value they would like to donate. The form software would then total the cost of the memberships and the donation. A PayPal Buy button is then used allow the user to make the payment. </p> <p>Can Gravity Forms software be used to build this solution?</p> <p>Thanks for your help.</p> <p>Victor </p>
