Ecard block settings

Confirmation Block

The sender will receive a message and will then need to confirm "sending the Ecard" to the recipients that they chose. Without this, the Ecardwill not send to the recipient.

Note: If utilizing the Ecard from a donation page (redirecting to the ecard campaign), this confirmation is automatically bypassed.
