Recurring Donation Creator configuration options

This content item uses the Common content item configuration options, in addition to the following:

Commit sequence - Allows you to explicitly define the execution order of multiple content items in a content record. The number in this field indicates the processing order for this content item, relative to the other content items in the same content record. The value must be 0 or greater. You can leave the default value of 0 if the execution order of content items is not a concern. Content items with a value of 0 are processed after any other content items with a non-zero Commit Sequence value that are on the same content record.

For example, processing a donation immediately requires that multiple content items are defined in a single content record. It does not matter the order in which the content items are defined on the page. In the scenario outlined below, where the Recurring Donation Creator is the first content item displayed on the page and the Submit Order Button Link is the last content item displayed, the Commit Sequence value controls the order in which the content items are processed. When the donation is submitted from the content record, execution control is given to each content item based on the Commit Sequence value shown in parentheses:

Donation Creator (2)
Recurring Donation Creator (3)
Contact Account Creator (1)
Payment Creator (5)
Submit Order Button Link (6)
'No' radio option text - Enter the text to display next to the No option. This button prevents a recurring donation.
'Yes' radio option text - Enter the text to display next to the Yes option. This button creates a recurring donation instruction.
Gift frequency text - Enter the text to display next to the gift frequency drop-down.

Notes

The Recurring Donation Creator content item must have a connection to a Donation Creator content item on the same content record.
