Backers cannot contribute recurring donations

[klmansel]

Describe the bug
On specific collectives, the Become a backer or contribute options do not allow recurring contributions. The Frequency box is greyed out/disabled. When choosing Or make a one time donation, contributors have the option to choose a monthly or yearly donation.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to https://opencollective.com/wwcodegreenville
2. As a logged in user, click on either button: contribute or Become a backer
3. Contribute As - select your user name/profile
4. Click Next Step
5. Attempt to change the frequency of the donation (button will be disabled)

Expected behavior
This is confusing behavior and seems it should be the opposite: Choosing contribute or Become a backer should allow contributors to choose a frequency for their donation. Or make a one time donation should disable the frequency drop down.

Screenshots

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: MacOS Mojave 10.14.5
• Browser: Chrome
• Version 74.0.3729.169

Additional context
As far as I can tell, this is an issue on some, but not all collectives. The link provided is an example of one.

Yes! I didn’t see that one when searching. This is directly related.

The "Make a one time donation" link is gonna be updated soon.

A simple fix would be to have the Frequencyeditable, triggering a modal warning:

If you're changing the frequency, we will not contribute to this specific tier "Gold Sponsor".

• If "Confirm", redirect to the "custom financial contribution".
• If "Cancel", nothing

Are you still on this issue? @viva-jasper

[znarf]

@viva-jasper sorry for late answer. If you're:

1. contributing to https://opencollective.com/babel/contribute/bronze-sponsors-356/checkout/details
2. change the frequency
3. confirm in the modal
4. you should be "redirected" to https://opencollective.com/babel/donate/details (the amount should ideally stay the same). This should not be a hard redirect, this should be done smoothly by changing the state and/or pushing a new route.

This bounty is now opened to everyone.
