TeamRaiser Amount Raised - can you make this component include registration fees without adding them to participants' individual status indicators?

Stacy Clinton

We would like the individual status indicators to show donations only, but it would be great to celebrate the total amount raised in the main Amount Raised indicator on our home page.  I can only see this item in the "edit advanced options" section:

7.     Status Indicators Include the Monetary Value of Registration Fees           

Determines if registration fees should be included in the amount raised by participants and teams in all status indicators and lists.

I was considering adding in an offline event amount in the back end just so the event total is boosted by the registration fees, but does anyone know a better way?

Thanks!

Hi Stacy,

I believe this is an "all or nothing" setting - either reg fees are included in all thermometers or in none.

Best,

Noel

Thanks Noel.  That does seem to be the case.  We probably would have set things up differently if we had known that, but now we know for next time!  It's hard to tell potential sponsors "our event has already raised $X" when the total dollars raised indicator on the greeting page only shows dollars raised without the registration fees.

Appreciate the response!

I don't see an STAG to get the amout in Registration fees, but there is a way to get the number of participants. If you have a single flat Reg fee you could do some math and add that registration fee total to your donations total. Feed that amount into a custom thermometer on your home page and you have it.

edit: Or a more simple emergency option - just show the amount in registration fees next to the thermometer. Here's the Tags to show the amount in registration fees if every participation type costs 32.00 and your TeamRaiser's ID is 1280. (Not well tested.)

] 32 * 100 *]]]]

If you have different registration fees it gets more complicated, but probably still doable.

Hey there, 


Since this post was last updated, the s-tag for registration fees has been added so I thought i'd post a more up to date answer (and because I will probably forget that I figured this out): 


[[E130: [[S42:0:reg-fees]] [[S42:0:dollars]] + currency]]


This will render the registration fees + dollars raised and convert it into looking like dollars. 0 is equal to the TeamRaiser ID.


So, if you' have raised $7,000 in registration fees and $5,000.24 in donations, this will yield $12,000.24. If for some reason you don't want the dollar amount formatted (i.e. 12,000.24), you could use this: [[E130: [[S42:1120:reg-fees]] [[S42:1120:dollars]] +]]
