NEW
It's 2021!
That definitely counts as new. Hopefully improved too.
Since our last update, we sent out the following important communications:
  • A
    2020-in-review email
    looking at the power of the nonprofit community as it worked together to overcome a year of incredible challenges.
    It includes statistics about how much money was raised through our platform, including in support of essential services, racial justice organizations, through virtual and livestreamed campaigns/events and more.
  • Our ninth and final email in a
    series of Nonprofit Success Stories
    featuring proven fundraising strategies, helpful resources and a whole lot of inspiration. Review all emails in this series.
IMPROVED
Nonprofit admins can now send test emails of their thank-you messages for Core Profile pages, Campaign Pages and Event Ticketing pages.
In the Nonprofit Admin Portal, a
Send Test Email
button now appears beneath the Body Paragraph field on the
Thank You Message
tab for Core Profile, Campaigns and Events. Test emails will only be sent to the address of the person who is logged in to the portal. In the email, merge tags (rather than actual data) will show in the Donation Summary section, but the nonprofit’s name and tailored body text will appear. Learn about how to send thank-you message from your Core Profile, from Campaign Pages and from Event Ticketing pages.
A
Clear Address
button has been added to the Event Details page for Event Ticketing in the Nonprofit Admin Portal.
When adding or managing the address of an event on an Event Details page, if you click on
Enter Address Manually
, all of the address fields will be revealed. The
Clear Address
button beneath them makes it possible to clear them all in one click. Learn more about how to build an Event Ticketing page.
We have added more styling updates to Peer-to-Peer and Team Fundraising pages.
On November 20, we first announced slight facelifts, followed by more on December 11. This latest round continues to improve the readability and performance of these pages.

FIXED
A bug fix has reenabled the display of the new (version 2) PayPal button on Simple Widgets when used in Safari
, making it once again visible in all browsers. The older (version 1) PayPal button on Simple Widgets still displays on all browsers except Safari. Learn how to integrate our platform with PayPal.
