SmartDONATE Prerequisites
To use SmartDONATE on your Content Management System (CMS) i.e. a page outside of Blackbaud NetCommunity (BBNC), you must be able to do one of the following:
- You must know how to edit a page in your CMS and how to add content with SCRIPT, HTML and STYLE tags to the page. Most content management systems support adding these tags as it is a standard method of adding features to a website:
- We provide a sample widget that you can then use.
- Alternatively, we can design you a bespoke widget which is a service we can quote for given your requirements.
- Or, have your website design team create a widget within your website that links to the donation page in BBNC.
The widgets build a link from your site to the SmartDONATE page with parameters such as &amount=... and &appeal=... etc. These parameters enable SmartDONATE to automatically select your user's donation amount, appeal, and other donation form fields.
If you are interested in SmartDONATE and are able to meet the above basic prerequisites do contact us to discuss the product in more detail. SmartDONATE has more detailed parameters which can be set according to your company requirements.
