Nonprofits that gain feedback from their supporters can create targeted campaigns and events that raise more and build stronger relationships. Dropdown fields added to your donor forms make getting this feedback easier. You can now add dropdown answers, checkboxes, and text boxes to your online donation forms. This article will show you how to add this customization to your Donorbox forms.
Once you’ve created a campaign, you can customize it any way you’d like. On your Campaign page, you’ll find a section titled “Additional Questions.” You can click on “Amounts Screen” or “Information Screen” to add dropdown answers to either one.
On the new page, click “Add question.”
When the new box pops up, choose Dropdown for “Question type.”
Then, add the question title, placeholder text, and answer options. You can also choose to require the donor to select an option.
You can add as many options and questions to your donation form as you’d like, but be careful not to overwhelm donors. Asking them to do too much may discourage them from giving.
When you’re done, click update and you’re finished!
Our second new feature allows you to make a checkbox confirmation required for one of your additional questions. This can be used to ask your donors to agree with your terms before donating. For example, political campaigns can use this to confirm that a donor is a citizen who is 18 or older.
To add a required checkbox, all you have to do is choose Checkbox for “question type.” Then, add the Question title, and you choose to have the question checked by default or require the donor to check this.
If you want donors to check yes or no, it’s best to choose the Radio option for “question type.”
If you choose to require donors to answer a question, they will be notified if they forget and are unable to continue donating until they do.
