Ability to add a note to a contribution
February 26, 2012, 11:26:08 am
There does not seem to be a way to add a note to a contribution via profile. As far as I can tell it can only be done from the backend.
Steps I've taken:
- Create an online contribution page
- Add a profile to it
- Add some fields to that profile
- Every contribution field except note seems to be available to add to said profile.

Use case: I'd like donors to be able to include a note with their online contribution. Creating a custom field for this seems silly, since the note field is already in core.
