Giving should be straightforward, but often donors face a common hurdle: wanting to support a different campaign than the one they initially landed on.
This usually means leaving the page, searching for the right campaign, and starting over – a process that frequently leads to missed donations.
For instance, if a donor is on the “Holiday Toy Drive” page, but then remembers they wanted to support your “Scholarship Fund” instead. Previously, they’d have to hit the back button, hunt through your site for the other campaign, and go through the entire process again.
With the release of Charitable Pro 1.8.12, we are excited to introduce the Campaign Selector. This innovative feature eliminates those frustrating navigation steps by allowing your donors to effortlessly switch between any of your active campaigns directly within the donation form. The form updates instantly with the new campaign’s details, all without a single page reload, ensuring a seamless and efficient giving experience that empowers your supporters to contribute where it matters most to them.
How It Works: Effortless Donor Choice with the Campaign Selector
The Campaign Selector is incredibly simple! On your donation forms, donors will now see a smart dropdown menu.
This intuitive menu gives them the power to choose their preferred campaign at the exact moment they’re ready to give.
No more hitting the back button or hunting through your site – everything they need is right there. When a donor selects a different campaign from this list, the form instantly updates.
This means donation amounts, custom fields, and any campaign-specific messages refresh automatically, providing a truly dynamic and frustration-free experience for your generous supporters.
Key Features of the Campaign Selector:
- Smart Filtering: The selector is smart enough to automatically exclude campaigns that have ended or are already fully funded, ensuring donors only see active needs.
- Organized for Impact: If you manage dozens of causes, you can group campaigns by category (e.g., “Emergency Relief” vs. “Education”) to help donors find their preferred cause quickly.
- Memory & Persistence: The system can remember a donor’s last selection for up to 7 days, providing a personalized experience for returning supporters.
- Total Control: You decide exactly which campaigns appear in the dropdown and which forms should display the selector.
Getting Started with the Campaign Selector
Setting up the Campaign Selector takes less than a minute. Once you’ve updated to Charitable Pro 1.8.12, you can enable it globally or for specific campaigns under your Donation Form settings.
It works seamlessly with shortcodes, widgets, and even modal (popup) forms.
Plus, it’s built to be developer-friendly with a suite of hooks and filters, allowing you to customize the display logic or the campaign list programmatically.
