it's super easy !  just edit your cause for which you want to give link on donate now button .

now enter your target link in donation form field of cause post like this : 

https://www.diigo.com/item/image/4hjpr/y7ku

now your donate now button will open http://www.example.com

instead of donation form !

it might be possible that you want to use some other currency for donation on your site like euro , pound , Australian dollar etc .

to change the currency : add currency_code="AUD" in paypal shortcode at WP-admin-panel > charity hub > cause style > donation format .

like this :

[gdlr_paypal user="[email protected]" action='https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr' currency_code="AUD" ]

AUD is for Australian dollar , you can change it as per your requirements .also change $ in money format field with symbol of your currency and save changes .

****** some general code *****

euro : EUR 

british pound : GBP

Canadian Dollar : CAD 

all codes hete : http://www.xe.com/iso4217.php

add this code at WP-admin-panel > theme options > additional css box :

ul.sf-menu li.menu-item a{
font-size:20px;
}
ul.sub-menu li.menu-item a{
font-size:10px;
}

here 20 is the main navigation font size and 10 is for sub menu font size :)

and save changes ,

you can change values either globally or in individual cause :)

1 : for global :

go to WP-admin-panel > charity hub > cause style and in donation form field you can specify values like this :

[gdlr_paypal user="[email protected]" val_1="100" ,  val_2="75" ,  val_3="50"]

2 : to change values in individual cause : edit your cause and do same as above in cause's donation form field .

Cheers !

* Please make sure that you haven't changed or customize any theme code directly. otherwise, you have to do it again.

To update the theme,

Make sure that you backup your current theme files if it has been modified (if it's not, you can ignore this), you can download it and keep locally via FTP method. It's in the path 'wp-content/themes/THEMENAME'

There are two methods for updating the theme.

1. Using one click updater via Envato Market plugin : https://envato.com/market-plugin/ Please follow the guideline from the plugin but if you are getting the problem please try to follow our guideline here : https://goodlayers.ticksy.com/article/10957/ 

2. Manual method... In case that the auto update doesn't work or you don't want to install the Envato Market plugin, we suggest the manual method. 

You need to login to your Themeforest profile page, click on 'download' tab, then download the theme again.

After that,

2.1.) After you downloaded file from Themeforest. Do not upload it yet. Extract it!

2.2.) You will find 6-7 folders and some files inside. You'll see the file called 'THEMENAME.zip'

2.3.) Go to 'Appearance > themes' and click 'Add new' button. 

2.4.) Upload 'THEMENAME.zip' that you just downloaded from Themeforest through wp backend, click to override the old one and activate the theme.

2.5.) Go to 'appearance > menu' and assign menu to themes location again.

2.6.) Go to Theme option and click 'save changes'.

After you update the theme, please make sure to update the plugins that come with the theme as well. You can follow the instruction below.

To update plugin that comes with our theme.

1.) Make sure that you register the purchase code to your website first (this applies with themes since Infinite) : 

2.) Go to 'GoodLayers > Install Plugins' and you will be able to update plugins from there . (For Revolution Slider, Layer Slider and Maser Slider, we suggest you to back up slider by exporting the slider content first.)

2.) Go to 'Appearance > Install Plugins' section then, install the plugin you want.

3.) Activate the plugin.

*** For 'goodlayers lms' plugin, you have to save the LMS Option once after the plugin is activated as well.

After updating

1.) Make sure that you clear browser's cache as well.

2.) Go to admin panel(theme options) and click 'save changes' once.

3.) If you get 404 error on single post(for any post type), go to permalink, set to default one and then set back to the one you used.

You can download the application here http://poedit.net/

After you installed the theme and slider plugin properly, you may still see the warning like these...

For Revolution Slider, it looks like this : 

For Layer Slider, will look like this : 

Please note that you can't put the theme's purchase code in that field. It will not work.

The purchase code( or activation code) for slider is not necessary. It's used for auto updater for the slider. However, the slider that's included in this theme is being used as 'Extended license', it's considered as a bonus file which doesn't support auto updater(and their slider templates.). 

If you need to use auto updater, you have to purchase slider's regular license separately. But as we mentioned. It's not necessary, you can still use slider that come with the theme like its' regular license and we still keep pushing slider's update in future theme's version as well ;)

Below is the list of main server setting parameters and the recommended values. If you can't change it by yourself, you must contact your host provider to do it.

post_max_size: Sets max size of post data allowed. 

post_max_size = 25M 

upload_max_filesize: Sets the maximum size of an uploaded file.

upload_max_filesize = 40M 

max_input_time: Sets the maximum time in seconds a script is allowed to parse input data, like POST and GET 

max_input_time = 300 

max_execution_time: Sets the maximum time in seconds a script is allowed to run before it is terminated by the parser. 

max_execution_time = 300

memory_limit: Sets the maximum amount of memory in bytes that a script is allowed to allocate 

memory_limit = 256M 

max_input_vars: Sets the number of input variables may be accepted 

max_input_vars = 4000

If suhosin patch is installed, change the following parameters to the specified values.

php_value suhosin.post.max_array_depth 100 

php_value suhosin.post.max_array_index_length 128 

php_value suhosin.post.max_name_length 128 

php_value suhosin.post.max_totalname_length 512 

php_value suhosin.post.max_value_length 2000000 

php_value suhosin.post.max_vars 5000 

php_value suhosin.request.max_array_depth 100 

php_value suhosin.request.max_array_index_length 128 

php_value suhosin.request.max_name_length 128 

php_value suhosin.request.max_totalname_length 512 

php_value suhosin.request.max_value_length 2000000 

php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 5000

*Your site might not really consume these values but what we recommended is just to make sure that although your site is large, the setting up process will get smooth. You may try to decrease some value if you feel it's too big or you can decrease values after you finish setting up website.

Where can I get my purchase code?

If you're submitting ticket without using Envato login, you will need purchase code instead. Purchase code can be obtained in your Themeforest profile page, click on the tab "Download", from the item list, click on the button "Download" of the item and you will see where to get the code. See this
