It's mentioned in the module description that a use case would be allowing users to enter the amount of a donation. I'm trying to use this module for that exact situation and can't figure out how to get the donation field I created to update the price field. I also tried editing the price field, but it's locked. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

I tried to use it for donations to create a custom line item, however after enabling the module and adding a custom content type, the action link for both content types where gone. Only after disabling and uninstalling this module did I get the action links back.

Thanks!

@lpitman No, I never could figure it out. I ended up using http://drupal.org/project/paypal_donate but I would still love to see this as an option because I would definitely use it in the future.

@codigo, did you notice that there is a sreencast of how to do it using custom line item types, but not using customizable products. Do you know if you can use custom line item types module at the same time as customizable products module?

It seems that doing donations in Custom Line Item Types is well documented, but its project page says the module "should be considered deprecated" in favor of this one. Consequently we need donations functionality here if CustomLineItems has no future.

I ended up using CustomLineItems, works well for me.

You need to add a pricing rule in order to get the price to update to the entered donation amount.

Watch the screencast for Custom Line Items from around 14:20 to see how to set up the rule.

The rule configuration is the same regardless of whether you are using this module or Custom Line Items.

And just for good measure, here's an additional screencast on using this module specifically: http://commerceguys.com/blog/commerce-module-tuesday-commerce-customizab...

The "Commerce Custom Line Item" module should not be used.

I'll give this a go again, but followed this tutorial several times and it never worked for me. I'll post back in here with results.
