  • For each designated amount, pass this pair of parameters (where X represents an integer that identifies each set of designation parameters):

    designated.X.id

    designated.X.amount

    For example:

    <label>Community First! amount: </label>

    <input type="hidden" name="designated.1.id" value="1001" />

    <input type="text" name="designated.1.amount" value="25.00" />

    <label>LIFT amount:</label>

    <input type="hidden" name="designated.2.id" value="1002" />

    <input type="text" name="designated.2.amount" value="50.00" />

    To specify "write-in" designations use:

    designated_write_in.X.name

    designated_write_in.X.contact

    designated_write_in.X.amount

    If the shadow form you specify using the form_id parameter does not include either the Designated Giving Donation Level or Flexible Designated Giving Donation Level component, these parameters are ignored.

    We have the designated giving donation level active, but we do not have an amount for each community. The way the form is designed, the user selects a community for the donation to go to and then they choose an amount specified in the "other" level field. I want to somehow list the communities in a drop down and give them the option to choose up to three communities to give to like the form was originally designed for. Is this possible? The form number is 3585 (October Direct mail) This is critical because our direct mail has already gone out. Anything that you can do to help, I really appereciate it!

    Hello -

    Can someone confirm that the ghost form "Giving Pattern" has to be either the "Designated Giving Donation Level" or the "Flexible Designated Giving Donation Level" and not the "Standard Donation Level" in conjunction with the "Single Gift Designation" element? We are hoping that there is an API solution that we have overlooked that will allow us to simply add the "Single Gift Designation" element to the ghost form without having to rework its Giving Pattern.

    Thanks much!
