Summary: This guide provides steps on how to locate your Giving Form URL and integrate it into your Sites settings to ensure your site is using the correct form, noting specific compatibility guidelines if you choose to use the newer Giving Form (2.0).
Before You Begin
- You must have the necessary permissions to access Tithely Giving and Sites Settings.
- Giving Form (2.0) Note: You can use only one form, block, or embedded button on a single page with this version.
- If specifying a particular fund/amount, avoid the Giving Block with Form 2.0; embed the code via a basic text box instead.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Collect Your Giving Form URL:
- Navigate to Giving.
- Select Giving Form and Copy your Giving Form URL.
2. Add Your Giving Form URL to Sites:
- Click on Sites from your main navigation.
- Select Settings from the left menu.
- Choose Integrations at the bottom of the list.
3. Paste the Giving Form URL into the field (where a six-digit ID may already be populated). [The system will automatically strip out the beginning of the URL and only capture what is required.]
4. Click Save.
5. Go to your Giving Page and click the donate button to open the new Giving Form and confirm the update.
Troubleshooting & FAQs
- Why is the full URL not showing after I paste it? The system is designed to strip out the beginning of the URL and only retain the necessary code for integration. This is expected behavior.
- I want my Giving Button to link to a specific fund. Which form should I use? The old (legacy) Giving Form (1.0) is better suited for the Giving Block's fund-specific functionality. If using Form 2.0, it is advised to use a basic text box to embed the form code.
