Is there any way of embedding a DTDonate form into an existing article?

For example, with other components, it is often possible to do this by embedding something like

{componentnameX] where x is the item id.

Hello. This is not possible, nor needed. I haven't seen a component actually that does that. MODULES can be inserted that way, but that is totally different. Regardless, if you found one that does, DT Donate does not.

What you need to do is to include your info in the message area above the form. This will accept HTML so just copy the HTML of your article and paste it into this box. Then the article content will show above the donation form. If you need anything below the form, I'd suggest using a separate module and assigning it to the menu item.

Hi,

Is there any way to have the content pasted in the message box inherit the paragraph style from the template? It seems to take on a look all its own and I can't figure out how to get it to have the same style as the other articles.

Thanks!

To say it's not needed is really not right.
There are many cases where this would be needed. What if you want to show a bunch of attendees under an article, or ordering options as part of a very pretty page with a slideshow and complex visual overlays?

This component does that:
