Two number fields now hold the entered number if you scroll while your cursor is over the field
: the ticket prices amounts of the Event Ticketing ticket builder in the Nonprofit Admin Portal and the custom donation amount on donation forms used by donors. Before, in Google Chrome, scrolling with a mouse wheel or trackpad could change the entered number rather than scroll, but only if the cursor hovered over the specific number field. Learn more about Give Lively's fundraising features.
We have completed a rollout that alleviates small misalignment, overlap and font-size issues with the Simple Donation Widget.
This is a followup to our transition to the new Simple Donation Widget. Learn about what makes the new Simple Donation Widget more appealing, efficient and accessible.
Donors using a keyboard to navigate through a Give Lively donation form no longer lose their selected suggested donation amount when they tab into the custom amount field.
Now, a chosen selected amount is only cleared when a custom amount is entered into the field. Donors clicking on the custom amount field with a mouse were not affected. Donation forms on Event Ticketing pages remain the same for now. Learn more about accessibility at Give Lively.
Peer-to-Peer Fundraising pages now keep the selected donation frequency when donors using Google Chrome employ the browser “back" button to make changes to a gift.
Previously, when in Chrome, donors who used browser navigation to go back and edit a one-time donation might see the frequency reset to monthly, even on campaigns set up for one-time giving. See how Peer-to-Peer Fundraising pages work.
The virtual event location link in Event Ticketing receipts now opens correctly.
For a brief time, an extra http:// or https:// was being added to the
Virtual Location
URL, which broke the link donors received in their receipt email. See how to add a virtual event location to your Event Ticketing page (bullet 4(2)).
The "email address updated” confirmation email shows the new email address after there has been a change in the email address associated with a User Portal account.
Although the email alert was always sent to the correct updated email address, for a brief time this alert referenced the old address in the message, leaving doubt about which address was actually on file. Now the message and the delivery destination give matching confirmation whenever an email address changes. Learn how donors can change their email address in the User Portal.
The
Back To All Events
link at the top of Event Ticketing editing pages in the Nonprofit Admin Portal takes users to the correct page.
Previously, clicking this link failed to load the full list of events. Nonprofit admins now have smooth navigation between a single event and the rest of an organization's Event Ticketing pages. Learn how to build an Event Ticketing page.
The dedicated Give Lively Text-to-Donate short code – 44-321 – is once again fully operational on all major U.S. phone carriers.
Due to compliance changes with carrier networks and Twilio (the communications platform that powers Text-to-Donate), short code use was partially restricted. During this time, Verizon and T-Mobile customers, as well as users subscribed to Spectrum for mobile service, were only able to use a full 10-digit “long code” to make mobile donations on the go. Learn what a Text-to-Donate short code is.
The
Donate
button on Simple Donation Widgets embedded in Squarespace websites has been restored to full functionality.
Donors using a Squarespace-hosted page with an embedded Simple Widget were briefly unable to proceed after clicking the
Donate
button. Learn about embedding a Simple Donation Widget on a Squarespace website.
We have fixed the
Learn more
link under
Donate via Bank Account
on the Event Ticketing payment form.
For a brief time, this link was broken. It again leads to an FAQ about what the best way to donate is, bank versus credit card.
