Political donations and contributions over $101.00 usd need help

[rcollins2867]

I am seking assistance on political financial contributions, and political donations...I have a client site of which we have added civiccrm. Our client is running for political office here in the USA, there are campaign rules that state that any donations or contributions over $101.00 usd, has to be form filled out by contributor or donor...is there a way that civiccrm can flag those larger than 101.00 donations and automatically forward the neccessary form to the client donor.....Any assistance or guidance will be greatly appreciated....

Best solution is to modify the contribution form to collect the information for every donation (create custom fields & then a profile & then use the profile in the contribution page).

We have recently updated from 2.2.2 to 3.14. We are having a few problems with re-setting up our Federal PAC Contribution page..

I have done this and created a Federal PAC Profile which requires Employer and Job Title/Occupation. The added Profile does NOT display at all when saved. It does not appear in the live page or testdrive page.

I captured the HTML snippet from the Profiles page and pasted it into the HTML section within the Introductory Message in the Titles and Settings section of my Manage Federal PAC Contribution page. Upon hitting the Update button on the HTML screen it displays correctly as a form inside the Introductory Message

When I go to save the page and then try to testdrive it. It crashes. It gives me the following error "There is a validation error with your HTML input. Your activity is a bit suspicious, hence aborting"

I have checked permissions and have the following for all files in the install:

httpdocs    -rwxr-x---
all other subdirectories  -rwxrwxr-x

Any help is appreciated.

a few thoughts and comments:

1. This definitely has nothing to do with permissions

2. You should not add a form to the introductory message

3. Your civicrm_uf_join table might have gotten out of sync (due to some bugs in previous releases?) You might want to delete the entries in that table relevant to your contribution page and attach the profiles again in the configure screen

Since you are working on a campaign, your campaign might want to consider supporting our canvassing/GOTV initiative:

Thank you Lobo. Still no luck. Civicrm_uf_join:

                                104     1     Profile             NULL                               NULL     19     29
   Edit    Delete    105    1    Search Profile    NULL                                 NULL     19    29
   Edit    Delete    106    1    CiviContribute    civicrm_contribution_page    22    1    29

The Profile is correctly identified, as is the contribution page. It just isn't appearing on the Live page.
