Hi,
I think my question is very easy but I'm not able to figure out. I configured the donation module, but when I try to make a donation, and go to paypal website to make the transaction, I see the standard payment page, as if I buy a object. I want to see the donation page, because I don't sell anything and people should only donate.

If I don't use the module, I solved the problem creating a custom paypal button selecting "donation" from the combobox, but I'd like to use donation, how can I customize this?
I think it is quite strange that nobody has this problem, because this is a donation module!
Any help?

This is an old issue, but I recently experienced the same thing, so I figured I would share the solution. You need to set the value of the paypal variable 'cmd' to '_donations'.

In my case, I am using the Paypal module to handle payment processing. It uses 'cmd' => '_xclick', , which sets the transaction as 'Buy Now'. Change that to
'cmd' => '_donations',
and you'll get the Paypal donate page.
