Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Cotara Donations version 1.0.0 as active, updated 3d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Cotara Donations puts your Cotara donation page on your own website. Donors give without leaving your site, and every gift arrives in your Cotara dashboard as usual. Payments are processed by Stripe through Cotara.
The plugin never sees or stores card details.
Three ways to show it:
Pop-up form: a button that opens the donation form on top of your page.
Donate button: a button that opens your donation page.
In-page form: the donation form inside your page.
Works with:
Elementor: search for “Cotara Donate” in the widget panel. Full style controls (colours, typography, border, radius, padding, shadow, responsive alignment).
Block editor (Gutenberg): add the “Cotara Donate” block.
Shortcode: [cotara_donate] anywhere shortcodes work, including Divi, Beaver Builder, WPBakery, Bricks and Oxygen text or code modules.
Sidebars and footers: Appearance > Widgets > “Cotara Donate”.
Shortcode
[cotara_donate] uses your saved settings.
Options:
url – a different donation page (for one campaign).
mode – popup, button or inline.
text – button text.
color, text_color – hex colours, for example #0071bc.
This plugin connects to Cotara, the donation platform that runs your donation page. It is needed to show the donation form and to process gifts.
What is sent and when: when a visitor clicks a Cotara button, or views a page with the in-page form, their browser loads your donation page from donor.usecotara.com inside a frame or a new tab. The link carries the campaign address and attribution fields ( utm_source, utm_medium, cotara_src ). The plugin itself sends no data to Cotara and stores no donor data. When the donor gives, the donor enters their details on Cotara’s page, and the card payment goes to Stripe through Cotara.
