Step 2

You can edit some of the default settings in your form here, like setting a default donation amount or recurring option. As you change the settings, you will see the code automatically adjust itself.

When you’re happy with the settings, copy the embed code for your form. This code will be pasted in your Drupal site later on.

Step 3

Now, log into your Drupal 8 account. At the top of your Dashboard, click the “Manage” tab, followed by the “Content” tab. Then click the blue “Add Content” button.

Step 6

Below your code, change your text format to “Full HTML”. The code should instantly transform into your donation form within the text box. Because we are using an embed code instead of a preset donation module, make sure not to skip this step or lines of code will appear on your website instead of the form itself.

Step 7

To ensure that your new donation page is featured on your website’s menu bar, click the “Menu Settings” tab to the right of the text box and select “Provide a menu link”. Don’t forget to name your menu link – this is the title that will appear on your menu bar.
