Add New Fund Raiser
You will see a form that will ask you details about your fund raiser.
Fill out the required information to submit your fund raiser to our admin for approval.
- Post Title – This is the name of your fund raiser. This is what will show on all fund raiser pages. This field is mandatory.
- Campaign End Options – Choose how to handle the campaign end. Leave “open” to keep collecting payments even after the date passes, and choose ‘closed’ to remove pledge button when the end date arrives. Setting the project as “open” will also remove the end date from the project and project grid. Ending options can be edited at any point by the admin.
- Funding Goal – this is the amount you wish to raise. Your big goal, and what the Progress Bar of the deck will calculate against. This field is mandatory.
- Fundraising Start and End Dates – This is the date you will stop accepting funding. These fields are mandatory. Closing dates can be edited by the admin after a fund raiser has been published and can also be edited after a fund raiser ends should you wish to reopen a closed fund raiser.
- Short Description – This is the short description of your whole fund raiser, used for the regular, mini, and embed sections.  This also displays in the Fund Raiser Grid and the Grid Shortcode.
- Long Description – This is the long description of your fund raiser, used for displaying content below the video field. This is filled in to assist in the use of Shortcodes. Particularly the fund raiser_page_complete We suggest you create this in your Content Editor up above, and then cut and paste it to the Long Description field.  This is also the main field used.
- Video Embed Code – you may enter any form of html content here, but this field will support most embed formats, including YouTube, Vimeo, and Viddler.  In order to display the video, simply enter the URL of the video (i.e. https://youtu.be/123abc456efg).  You may also use an Image in this field – using the image html
- FAQ – This field is not mandatory, but is a great place to add additional information. This text will be displayed in a special collapsible container, below the video and long description. You may format your FAQ however you’d like.
- Updates– This field is not mandatory, but is a great place to add fund raiser updates. This text will be displayed in a special collapsible container. You can provide small updates to the fund raiser here, or create links to Blog Posts about your updates.
Featured Image – To set an image at the top of your published fund raiser, use the Featured Image button to upload/select an image from the media library. For best results, images should be at least 800 px wide but this will vary depending on your theme. The featured image will display automatically on any fund raiser page created manually via a shortcode or automatically via the default fund raiser template. Additional images can be inserted into the Project Long Description, FAQ, and Updates fields.
When completed, click the Submit for Review button to submit your fund raiser or click the Save Draft to save your fund raiser to come back later and complete it.
