Is it possible to have a controller action that isn't associated with a specific page? I have added this to my routes.yml:
Director:
rules:
'donations/$Action/$ID/$Name': 'DonationController''
And have created a DonationController with an action called donation, so that I should be able to post to /donations/donation, but it doesn't seem to work.
The ideal solution would be to have an action called donation in the root, and be able to post to it using "/donation" as the URL.
By default index() is the action executed. You can impement that to have donations/ return something.
Basically this: https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/3.1/developer_guides/controllers/introduction/
Or you can implement handleAction to customise the logic.
But the easiest way is to specify the function in url_handlers configuration.

Great, thanks! I had forgotten to add the index() method/action.
