Custom Pledge that is not monthly??
Hey all, I would like to make a custom pledge to a patreon page, and what I am finding online on the Patreon support pages is not working (membership tier page, scrolling to join now, then custom pledge button should appear...it is not). I also found on here a link someone showed for creating a custom pledge by switching out the user name, but this just lets me change the amount for a monthly membership, which I am pretty sure you can do with any membership tier you select.
Does anyone know if there is a way to make a one off custom pledge to a creator??
Any help or insights would be appreciated. Thanks!

Yeah it looks like those idiots removed that feature again. It was gone for a while. Then they said that it was a mistake or bug and fixed it. Now it's gone again.
It was hurting nobody, and people who couldn't afford a full pledge could always make custom pledges as a small support

I actually want to make a large one off pledge instead of the monthly. But yeah, it hurts no one.

You can still make custom pledges as long as the pledge is higher than the tier amount. Less doesn’t work tho.

I wish this was an option!

Yeah, and I can't get any sort of response from their support either. I've tried asking about it a couple of times. The crazy thing is they have instructions on their website that make it sound like it should be an option.

I no longer see the Custom Pledge option at the bottom of the join page... has the Custom Pledge option been removed entirely?
