Additional questions in the Sign up flow, donation form and customised form

Last modified: 23-08-2023

It is possible within the platform to request additional information. For example, requesting a shirt size, explicit parental consent, agreeing to the additional participant regulations, etc. But also, for example, requesting extra information when making a Donations to apply for tax certificates or a special opt-in to be called. 

There are three places where we can add additional questions for you. In the sign up flow, the donation form and in a customised form. You cannot add the extra questions yourself. Should you wish to do so, please contact us and we will add them.

Types of extra questions

Input fields

We have two types of input fields, a textarea and a textarea. The two are distinguished by the size of rows displayed. If you expect a short answer then you choose a textarea. In it you ask a question (which has a maximum of 40 characters) a the user fills in an answer: 

If you expect a longer answer you can work with a textarea: 

Placeholder
For a text field or -area, you can specify a placeholder. This will then appear when the question is completed. This can be useful if you want to receive the information in a particular way, for example "enter the date dd-mm-yyyy here".

Validation types
You can have a specific form of an  answer specified. For example, if you ask for a specific date or a bank account number. If information is then specified that does not meet those specific validation requirements, the answer will not be accepted. These are the validation types we have:

  • Numbers only
  • Only letters, dashes and dots
  • Numbers, letters, dashes and dots only
  • Valid e-mail address
  • Valid phone number
  • Valid IBAN number
  • Valid zip code
  • Valid date of birth (dd-mm-yyyy)
  • Valid date (dd-mm-yyyy)
  • Valid date in the future (dd-mm-yyyy)
  • Valid date in the past (dd-mm-yyyy)
     

Multiple-choice options

We have three options for multiple-choice options, and with all three you may also optionally choose to display only one option. These are the dropdown, radio and checkbox:



Dropdown

At the dropdown you ask a question after which the user has to click on the answer option to expand it. There they can then select one of the choices. 


 

Radio

For radio, the first response option is selected by default. Users can then choose to select another option instead.

Checkbox

This allows you to tick one or more answer options yourself.

For all the questions above (except radio), you can indicate whether that question is mandatory or optional. 


Extra text

To introduce the questions, or give some extra information, we can insert titles and info text. A title has a slightly larger font than the infotext. 

 

Where can additional questions be added?

There are three places where we can add additional questions. In the sign up flow, on the donation form and in a customised form.

Sign up flow

The additional questions are asked in the sign up flow after creating the sponsor page (or team page/company page) and before the webshop/startup donation/overview page (depending on which steps there are in the sign up flow):

Donation form

The addition of additional questions to the donation form works the same and you will then see these below the personal data. The only difference is that no special personal data should be asked in this place.

 

Customised form

We can create a customised form. This is in the form of a Menu item and in it you can request information (separate from the sign-up and donation flow).

You enter an e-mail address and the completed forms are one on one forwarded to that e-mail address. These come in as separate emails and you cannot download an Excel file from this.

Optionally, you can set another destination url where the user, after filling in the form, is automatically redirected.

Below are some examples of applications of custom forms:

Customised form of the Giro di Muscoli for participants in the family stage
Here they ask participants to fill in the names.  

Customised Night of Refugee form to order t-shirts separately

Customised form from the Metakids Foundation for a participant action.
An action starter sells shells and these can be ordered using this form. This action starter receives the submitted emails and can match the orders to the payment reference.


On which levels can additional questions be set?"

Customised forms always appear as Menu items, but additional questions for the sign-up or donation flow can be set at different levels. Below you can see which ones:

  • Everywhere on the website
  • On the homepage only
  • On the homepage of a Sub site
  • On a specific Campaign

In addition, you can choose between whether the additional questions should be asked to a campaigner, a team captain or a company starter.


Where do I see the completed answers to the additional questions?

For the Donations form you will see these in your dashboard near the donation itself if you click on the 'eye'. In addition, you can find it in the Donations Excel file. An extra tab has been added there where the completed answers to the extra questions are listed.

In the Sign up flow, you can see the extra questions in the actions/participants when you click on the 'eye'. In addition, you can find them in the Fundraisers Excel file. There too, an extra tab has been added where the completed answers to the extra questions can be found. For Teams and Companies it works in the same way (click on eyelet, and in the export of Teams and Companies respectively)

In the case of a adjusted form, the completed results are emailed to the email address provided.

 

Do you want additional questions added? Then contact us.

Can we also work with logic/branching in the questions?

The additional questions are always asked. So you can't put logic into this (think 'if answer a -> then don't ask the next question')

Sign up flow

To start an fundraiser, you need to go through the sign up flow. Below is more information on how this works and you can set it up yourself.Article content:VideosSign up flow: the basicsSign up flow: additional stepsOptions at Settings > Sign up flowView sign up flowSign up optionsAdjust order of steps in sign up flowChange text left sideOther mattersSign up flow stepsBasicApplication options: How do you commit?Profile details: Who are you?Team pagePersonal sponsorship page: individualStarter donationOverview pageThank you pageSupplementaryEntry feeActivitiesEditions: retention at eventsDate of fundraiserPerformance: Mileage targetAdditional questionsWebshopDiscount codes VideosWould you rather see a video with an explanation?

Here you can see a number of settings.View sign up flowYou can always use this button to enter the sign up flow to see what it looks like. The preview mode is only meant to view the sign up flow, you cannot create fundraisers in this mode.Sign up flow optionsHere you can choose which way people can register. You have the following options:Individual + team + team memberIndividual onlyTeam + team memberIndividual + team + team member + companyIndividual + companyYou will only see the options based on the functionalities that are on. If you are not using the company functionality, then you will only see options 1, 2 and 3. If there are no teams either then you can only select individual here and the entire step in the sign up flow will be skipped.Adjust order of steps in sign up flowYou can change the order of the first four steps. You do this by dragging them with the mouse until they are in the desired order. The other steps all have a fixed order.Change text left sideYou can change the texts listed on the left-hand side of the sign up flow. For example, if you click change behind 'Who are you'. You can then edit the text in the next screen:If you click 'Change default value' then you can edit the text and add a description if you want. You can always go back to how it was originally by clicking 'Restore default value' again afterwards. And you change the text on the left (in the green sidebar):You can do this for all steps.Other mattersThere are a number of other things you can set on the Settings > Sign up flow page (see also screenshot below):You can change the text on the fundraiser start button (this can vary per campaign/sub site). The new text (e.g. come into fundraiser, swim along, etc.) can be a maximum of 15 characters and that includes spaces.You can customise the texts on the selection screens. These are selection screens that you see when you click 'start fundraiser' and then have to make a choice:General selection screen "What do you want to take fundraiser for?". Here you choose what you want to start the fundraiser for, whether it is, for example, a general fundraiser or an fundraiser for a campaignSub site selection screen "For which sub site do you want to take fundraiser?". Here you choose for which sub site you want to start an fundraiserSelection screen campaigns" For which campaign would you like to take fundraiser? Here you choose for which campaign you want to start an fundraiserSign up flow stepsThe sign up flow that fundraisers see is shown based on settings. Think, for example, that you will see an extra step with registration fee, if you use that. Below, under 'Basic' you will see the steps that are normally always there and under 'Additional' the extra steps/options. Each step is described briefly below. More information on specific functionality can be found in the support articles linked to this page. You may find below a functionality that is not included in your package.BasicThe following steps belong to the basics of the sign up flowSign up options: How do you commit?Here you can see the sign up flow options and choose how you want to sign up. You can set this via Settings > Sign up flow > Registration options. You will not see this step if there is only one option, such as individual.Profile details: Who are you?This is where you create an account for the platform. If you already have an account then you can log in and your already known data will be filled in automatically. The mandatory fields here are First name, Last name and e-mail address and agreeing to the general terms and conditions. We can optionally or compulsorily request the following additional fields here:Address (Street, House number, Suffix)PostcodeLocationCountryGenderPhone number (an additional opt-in will automatically be added here in accordance with telecoms legislation)Team pageIf you choose to create a team, you will be taken to the 'Your team page' page. Here you enter at least:The team name, the amount you want to raise, the title and the motivation. You can fill in the title and motivation beforehand via the standard settings. The amount raised can be set via Settings > Set target amount. If you chose individual or team member in the previous step, skip the team page step.Personal sponsorship page: individualYou then proceed to the page to create your individual fundraiser. Someone who creates a team in the sign up flow also creates a personal fundraiser. You can fill in the title and motivation beforehand via the standard settings. You can set the amount raised via Settings > Set target amounts. It is also possible to continue without creating an individual fundraiser if the sponsor page is optionally enabled.Starter donationBy default, this step is on, asking the fundraiser to make an initial donation in advance. This donation is optional, but we see that it is often done. You can adjust the amounts and possibly add a description via Settings > Set donation amounts. We can also turn off the initial donation if you wish.Overview pageHere you will see an overview of what you will order, or what you have selected. If necessary, you can choose to register another person. This way, you can create an fundraiser for several people at once and check them out.Thank you pageWhen payment has been made, you come back to the thank-you page. Here you can customise both the text on the left (which is standard) and the text and image on the right. You can use this to display an image that suits your site.SupplementaryEntry feeYou can add entry fees, if you ask for this for an event, for example. An fundraiser is required to choose an entry fee, but this could possibly be an entry fee of 0 euro.ActivitiesThe activities module allows you to add a (mandatory) choice question in the sign up flow. For example, a list of distances from which the fundraiser must choose, or the question of what kind of fundraiser it concerns.Editions: retention at eventsIf you use retention (editions) and an edition is set at the level you sign up at, you will be asked if you have participated before. Based on the answer, you can add badges, add a different target amount or send other emails based on the number of participations.Date of fundraiserThere is a site setting where it is mandatory for an fundraiser to specify an end date of the fundraiser. An fundraiser then gets the mandatory question "Until when does your fundraiser run". If a general countdown date is set at the level they are notified at then the question is not asked. All underlying fundraisers will then automatically get that date as the end date.Performance: Mileage targetIf achievements are possible at the level at which you create your fundraiser, you will be asked how many kilometres the fundraiser wants to cover. This is an optional question, and if filled in then this becomes the target distance for this fundraiser.You can also choose to leave that question away, by going to Settings > Achievements and unchecking the checkbox "Ask the participant's achievements goal in the registration flow":Additional questionsWe can add extra questions and this can be set per campaign, sub site, at the website level or across the whole site. We can ask the extra questions to fundraisers, but also specifically to team captains. With the extra questions, you can request additional information needed for your event. For example as in the example below that event participants are 18 years or older or have permission from their parent(s)/guardian(s). The answers to these extra questions are reflected in the export (of fundraisers and teams).WebshopIn the webshop, you can offer any additional items that can be bought. You set these up via Administration > Webshop. The webshop is only accessible in the sign up flow. You cannot therefore sell items via the platform outside the sign up flow.Discount codesYou can add discount codes and they only apply to the registration fee. That way, you can give early registrants a discount, for example, or let certain people register for free. If that functionality is on, you will see a place to enter a code at the overview screen.After clicking, you can enter the codeAnd if the code is correct, the discount code will be applied to the registration fee.

Campaign

In this article, the following items:LayersCampaign featuresManagement of campaignsAdd campaignLights outCopying campaignsWhat is all being copied?LayersThe platform can consist of several layers. For a simple event where there are only actions and teams, you only need one layer and everyone signs up in the same place. However, you may also be working with campaigns, for example at a crowdfunding platform, where you raise money for multiple causes.In that case, people will only be able to donate to such a campaign, but you also have website where you can also start actions. For example, if you have multiple events, or variants such as an event for adults and one for children. In such a case, you can work with multiple campaigns and the advantage of this is that each campaign can have its own settings. You can then also tailor the emails to the target group.Campaign featuresA campaign always has its own subdomainThe url of this is constructed as <siteurl>/project/<campaignurl> or <subsiteurl>.<siteurl>/project/<campaignurl>. You can set the >campaignurl> per campaign. You do this by managing an existing campaign and going to Content > Description and then adjusting the web address.A campaign can have different settingsIn one campaign, you can allow action starting and not in another, and you can also choose, for example, whether people can create teams and change the mails. So there are several things you can set for each campaign.You can close campaigns, set them to invisible or delete themIf you want to close a campaign, you can do so easily. All underlying actions and teams are then also immediately closed. You can remove closed campaigns from the counter via Settings > Campaign status (this setting is only visible when a campaign is closed).You can also set campaigns to invisible, after which they are no longer visible at the frontend of the site. If you no longer use a campaign, you can delete it if there are no actions, teams or donations under it.A campaign can have its own bannerYou can set a banner for a campaign. However, a campaign does inherit the spot colour of a parent segment or website level.A campaign can have its own administratorThe administrator can modify various texts and settings. See an overview of the rights of the campaign administrator here. You add a campaign administrator by managing the campaign and then going to Administrators and adding a new administrator.Management of campaignsYou can manage campaigns by going to Campaigns in the menu.Add campaignHere you can add a campaign by clicking 'Add'. Then enter:Campaign title*Description*TagsCountdownActivities* (if used here)RewardsContact*After saving, the campaign is unpublished. You can then configure the campaign at your leisure before putting it live. If you click on the eye at the top, you can already see what the campaign will look like. If everything is correct, you can then put the campaign live. You can do this by managing the unpublished campaign and then clicking 'Publish' on the notification at the top. You can also do this by going to the overview of all campaigns, clicking on the 'Unpublished' tab and then clicking on the three dots behind the campaign you want to publish and then clicking on 'Publish'.After publishing, the campaign appears in the overview of campaigns and you can manage it by going to campaigns by clicking on the pencil icon. Through the breadcrumb at the top, you can see that you are working at campaign level:All changes you make then apply at campaign level, i.e. only to this campaign.After creating a campaign, you can once again set the following things specifically for a campaign:You can change the url of a campaign via Content > Description > Web addressYou can give a campaign its own banner via Content > BannersYou can create your own menu for a campaign. It does not appear at the top of the homepage (that is where the fixed menu is), but on the campaign page as an extra tab. You create it via Content > MenuA campaign can have its own image. This image (or film) is then displayed in the overview pages and has a fixed ratio of 745x419. If you have uploaded an image, you can then crop it to that ratio. You do this via Content > Media

e-Ticketing

e-Ticketing is a premium functionality that we can turn on upon request. For fundraisers and participants, you can generate tickets and have them automatically mailed to you. The tickets have a QR code and you can eventually scan it via your mobile, webcam or manually.Article contentExplanatory videoFeaturesSetting up E-ticketsUse e-tickets directly below this pageShare e-tickets with buyerScanning of ticketsWho all can scan?ScannerAdd scannerMailsManual scanningScanning via camera See also here the explanation as given at the Kentaa Academy on 14 April 2022And the video about the update on 12 August (adding scanners):FeaturesYou can set tickets per level, separatelyOnce tickets are shared, fundraisers can also find them in their dashboard under "my registration".If you add multiple participants under the same email address, you will get in multiple tickets (Currently in multiple emails, but we will change that to an email with multiple PDFs)You can choose to generate the tickets already, but not share them yet (and do so at a later date) Setting up e-ticketsYou can set up e-tickets by level. You can choose to do this at website level (for registrations that go directly below website level), for a specific sub site (for registrations that go directly at that level) or for registrations under a campaign. You do this by going to Settings > E-tickets. Here you have two options: E-tickets use directly below this page.If you use these then e-tickets will be generated. You will then only see the e-tickets via E-tickets > Overview. Nothing else happens and fundraisers don't see the tickets yet either. You cannot download pdf files yet, but you can already see the ticket numbers.Share e-tickets with buyerOnly the moment you click "Share e-tickets with buyer." then fundraisers can see their tickets in the dashboard (example ticket). Existing fundraisers or participants at that level will immediately be sent the mail under Fundraisers > Send e-tickets. New participants, when creating an fundraiser, get their ticket sent directly. That mail looks like this by default, but you can customise it.This screenshot was taken in the fourth template. To ensure that the logo is always visible, this template chose to always include a white frame for the logo. Otherwise, you might get the situation where the logo is all green and then disappears into the green background. Scanning of ticketsYou can scan e-tickets manually or via a camera. On the main level, if you go to E-tickets > Overview (manual) or to E-tickets > Scan. Then you will see all tickets from the entire site (including all underlying sub sites and campaigns), and you can scan them all as well. You can also go specifically to, say, a campaign and there you can only scan tickets that fall under that campaign.Who can scan?Site administratorsCan set up e-tickets, go to the overview and scan (and create exports). If, as a site administrator, you start scanning at the highest level, you also scan immediately for all underlying campaigns. You can think of it as a kind of 'super scanner'Sub site managersCan go to the overview and scan (and create exports)Campaign managersCan go to the overview and scan (and create exports)Scanner (see next heading)Scanners can only scan tickets for the entities (website level, sub site, campaign) to which they have been added. ScannerAs a regular scanner, you can also be added at the website level. However, then you can only scan that level, not, for example, underlying sub sites or campaigns (unless you are specifically added to those as well). Add scannerYou can add a scanner per level. This is linked to a user. You can have a user who can only scan. This will then not appear in the dashboard at all, but directly in a scan menu. Handy if you have some volunteers to help with scanning at an event, for instance!You can add a scanner by going to E-tickets > ScannersYou add someone by creating an account here. If someone is not yet known, a new user is created and receives two e-mails: one to set their password and one to indicate that they have been added as a scanner.MailsThe mail a scanner receives looks like this:You can customise it via E-mails > Overview Mails > Scanners > Welcome mail scanner:You will see this mail only if e-tickets are used at that level!You can also add someone who is already a user in the system as a scanner of a particular campaign (or sub site or website level). For example, an fundraiser who wants to help with scanning. You will then see this message:After saving, this fundraiser can then also scan tickets for that level. If someone who starts an fundraiser is also a scanner and logs in to the dashboard, he will enter the dashboard of his fundraiser. He can then go to scanning by clicking on this icon: There are two ways to actually scan: manually and via a cameraManual scanningIf you go to the overview of tickets via E-tickets > Overview, you can manually set people as present there. You do this by clicking on the three dots behind the fundraiser/participant and marking them as present.Each ticket comes with a Ticket Number. You can also search by that in the search field.Should there be internet problems, you can also work with an offline variant by making a download of all tickets in advance. This will then state:Created on || E-ticket number || Name || Title || Scanned on || Scanned byYou can then manually search and tick off ticket numbers.Scanning via cameraIf you go to E-tickets > Scan, it will automatically try to connect to your webcam (computer) or your camera (mobile). After you give that permission, you can scan the QR code. If you scan a code that is invalid you will get a red notification.The window for scanning looks like this: (with a scanner landing directly in here and thus not landing in a dashboard first)Here, you can select a camera and then scan a ticket. This could be a camera from your mobile, for example, or a webcam if you work on your PC.A scanner can also manually enter a code You hold the QR code in front of the webcamAfter a successful scan, you will immediately see the info (at the bottom you will see additional questions, activities, any webshop items and contact details) For an invalid QR code (with a wrong link), you will see this:If a ticket has already been scanned, it looks like this:

Badges to reward action starters

Action starters can get badges in the iRaiser platform to reward them and give them extra motivation. There are two types of badges:

Achievements badges. These are badges that one can earn by actively recruiting. These badges ("medals") are greyed out on the Fundraising page and are coloured in when the respective goal is achieved.
Retention badges. This badge is linked to the number of participations. This badge ("ribbon") appears on the participant's action picture and shows how many times someone has already participated in the event.

Badges for achieved goals (Achievements badges)
These badges are aimed at motivating action starters to get started with their Fundraising page and reach various goals.
For example, someone gets a badge for the first Donations and for posting a blog post. There are also badges for the amount of money raised (250, 500 and 1000 euros) and badges for the number of supporters (10, 25 and 50 donations).
When this functionality is on, the following badges automatically appear on each Fundraising page:

These badges are greyed out when not yet achieved and coloured in when achieved. The green colour you see above in the badge is the spot colour set on the site. This way, the badges are nicely integrated into your style.
Badges are automatically coloured when the condition is achieved. When the functionality is turned on, all badges of existing action starters are also awarded retroactively. 
There are no emails associated with the badges. Although you could copyëren the email "More raised than set amount". You can then indicate in the mail when they reach 250, 500 and 1000 euros that they have earned a badge. Hooray!

The badges have a fixed layout and also fixed conditions, and you can only choose to put all eight of them on them. You cannot make your own adjustments to this at the moment. We do want to make this adjustable in due course.
Interested? Then send a message to iRaiser and we can turn it on for you!
.
Badges for number of participations (retention badges)
You have the option of displaying a badge (image) on participants' fundraising page depending on the number of times they have participated.
These Badges are part of the retention functionality, which consists of:

The edition of your event -> This feature must be enabled to use the badges and retention functionality.
A conditional welcome email based on number of participations
Able to set target amounts for action starters based on number of participations

The aim is to make participants feel welcome and encourage them to participate more often. For a complete description, read the article on retention functionality.
You can upload an image per participation. We have created four designs for you, see the downloads below. But you can also choose to design your own badges. This image has specific requirements: it must be a png image with transparency, the image must be 745x419 Pixels in size. So a landscape image. The badge is being placed over the existing image, so make sure the badge is not too large and is in one of the corners.

You can only add retention badges if an edition is set. Please contact us for this.
Download below your set of badges for returning participants. 

Documents

Participants may need to be able to upload a medical certificate for a particular event to show that they can participate. Or perhaps have to specifically sign and send another document.
Upload documents
This can be conveniently done via Documents. Via Settings > Upload documents you can indicate whether documents should be uploaded after registration. You can indicate here in the Description what should be uploaded:
Mails about documents
Fundraisers are then asked to upload their documents. For new registrations, the mail to fundraisers "Request documents to upload after registering participant" is sent. By default, the two mails below are also still on:

You can turn it off if necessary or adjust the number of days via the copy icon.
Upload documents
In the mails there is a link to go to 'my registration'. This requires the fundraiser to log in and click on 'My registration'. 
A notification is displayed at the top that documents still need to beüpload:

Below, the fundraiser can upload his documents:

The text from the Description will appear above 'Upload file'.
After uploading the file, it will look like this:

 
Controlling documents
If mail to site administrator 'Document(s) uploaded' is on, the site administrator will receive a message after an fundraiser has uploaded documents. In that mail is a link to go directly to the correct page.
You can also go to the Overview of Fundraisers to see if that the fundraisers have already uploaded their documents:

You have these icons:

No document(s) uploaded

No document(s) uploaded, not checked

Document(s) approved

If you then manage the fundraising page and go to 'My Registration' you can check the documents. You can choose to reject them by clicking delete, or approve them by ticking the box at the bottom:

If the documents are deleted, the notification will reappear for the fundraiser and he should upload them again.
If you create an export of all Fundraisers you will see two columns applicable to the documents. These are the columns:

Number of documents
Documents approved

Fundraisers

You can register as an individual through the sign-up flow and then you will have a separate fundraising page. You can add news items here and edit your fundraising page.You may also register as a team member. For that, you also create an fundraiser, but then the fundraiser is linked to the team and the revenues count for the team.Watch the video on managing fundraisers here, or read more about specific sections below.00:00 - Welcome00:27 - Download overview fundraisers01:40 - Adjust a page02:33 - Adjust my subscription03:14 - Manually adding a fundraise page04:58 - Change the owner of a page06:30 - Move fundraiser07:29 - Other optionsArticle contentFeatures fundraisersManagement of fundraisersMoving fundraisersManually adding fundraisersEmails to fundraisers  Feature fundraisersAn fundraiser always has one ownerAn fundraiser is always linked to a user, which is the owner of the fundraiser.

However, a user may have several fundraisers.An fundraiser can close and reopen an fundraiser himselfThe latter can only be done if it is possible to start an fundraiser at that time.You can move or assign an fundraiser to someone else afterwardsThis can only be done by a site administrator. Management of fundraisersWhen an fundraiser logs in, he/she enters the dashboard directly to edit his/her fundraising page. If the fundraiser has multiple fundraisers, there is a drop-down menu in front of it to choose which fundraiser he/she wants to edit. As site administrator, you can edit an fundraiser by looking it up in the fundraiser overview. You then click on the pencil icon to enter the fundraiser management. There you have the following options:My pageMotivationChange fundraiser name, fundraiser title, description, fundraiser url and number of participations (only an administrator can change the number of participations)Photos and videosAdd photos and videos to be placed on the fundraising pageSponsor logosAdd sponsor logos that will appear with the fundraiser BlogHere, an fundraiser can post his or her own Blog about his or her fundraiser. People who have indicated that they want to be kept informed will receive a notification about this.AgendaHere, fundraisers can organise their own fun things and put them in the agenda. People can then also donate to itSettingsClose pageAn fundraiser (or a site administrator) can close the fundraiser here. A closed fundraiser can be reopened (provided it is currently possible to start an fundraiser at that level) by the fundraiser or site administrator. Once an fundraiser is closed, it can no longer be donated to.

Sub sites

In this article, the following items:LayersCharacteristics Sub sitesManage Sub sitesAdd Sub sitesFeaturedLayersThe platform can consist of several layers. For a simple event where there are only Fundraisers and Teams, you only need ééone layer and everyone registers in the same place. However, you may also be working with Campaigns, for example with a crowdfunding platform, where you raise money for multiple causes. You might not be able to get by with just Campaigns and need an extra layer. Then you can use the Sub sites layer, which is a layer above the Campaigns layer. The platform could then look like this, for example: In the example above, you can see the website consists of a homepage, under which three Sub sites hang. Three sub sites and Campaigns and Teams hang below each Sub site. However, this does not have to be the case. You can also have Sub sites without Campaigns, or where you can start Campaigns directly at Sub site level. You can also choose to only donate on a Sub site, depending on how you want this to be configured. Sub site featuresA Sub site always has its own subdomain The url of this is built as subsitename.urlsite.co.uk. You can set the url (the piece before .urlsite.nl) for each Sub site. You do this while creating a new sub site, or by managing an existing one and going to Content >Description. A sub site can have its own designationsFor example, a campaign may be called 'campaign' on one sub site, while it is called 'event' or 'initiative' on another. Contact iRaiser to adjust these (provided the naming is available).A sub site may have different SettingsOne sub site may allow Fundraisers and Teams and another may not. And you can also choose not to allow visitors to create their own Campaigns at a certain Sub site.Sub sites are always visibleYou cannot set them to invisible. However, you can choose to highlight certain Sub sites on the homepage and not others. If you no longer use a sub site, you can delete it if there are no more Fundraisers, Teams, Campaigns and Donations.A sub site can have its own brandingYou can set your own logo per Sub site, as well as adjust the spot colours via Settings > Design. You can also set separate button colours and fonts via the front-end design editor. And Sub sites can have their own banners.A sub site can have its own administratorThe administrator can add new Campaigns and manage existing ones. See here an Overview of sub site administrator rights. You add a sub site administrator by managing the sub site and then going to Managers and adding a new administrator.A Sub site can have its own menuYou can choose to keep the same menu as the one on the website's homepage. But you can also choose to create your own menu under the Sub site. You will then start with an empty menu.The home button of a sub site can be customisedIf Sub sites are really seen as standalone sites then the general homepage is not relevant to go to. In that case, we can set that the home button and logo do not go to the general homepage of the website, but lead to the homepage of the Sub site.Manage sub sitesYou can manage sub sites by going to Sub sites in the Menu. Add Sub siteHere you can add a sub site by clicking 'Add'. Then enter:sub site name*Title of the Sub site*Description*Target amountSubdomain* (you can set the url here)TagsActivities (if used)RewardsContact person*After saving, the Sub site is published immediately. It appears in the Overview with Sub sites and can be managed by going to sub sties by clicking on the pencil icon. Via the breadcrumb at the top, you can see that you are working at sub site level:All changes you make then apply at the sub site level. If you modify mails here, for example, they will also be automatically adopted as such at underlying Campaigns (unless they are set differently at that level). FeaturedYou can spotlight Sub sites and it works the same way you can spotlight other items. From the Overview of Sub sites, you click on the three dots > highlight and then you can highlight them. Fundraisers, Campaigns and Campaigns can also be highlighted on a sub site page. You do this by managing the sub site, going to Fundraisers and clicking on spotlight. Then it will be highlighted at sub site level only.

Default action and team settings

Settings ⟶ Default fundraising page settings
Creativity is not given to everyone. And not everyone has the patience to come up with their own texts or upload their own photo in the submission flow either. Give the user a hand by already filling in a title, description or photo! Participants who just want to join in don't have to face unnecessary barriers, which improves conversion. But participants who want to actively manage their own fundraiser can still fill in their own picture, title and description.

Cap on number of team members
If you have an event where you have a maximum number of team members, you can set this via Settings > Default fundraising page settings. All teams that are then created may have a maximum of that set number of members.
You can set a maximum via Team members limit via Settings > Default team settings
If you choose "Yes, I want to specify a limit for teams under this page." then you can set the maximum number of team members there. The fundraiser who is himself a team captain also counts as an fundraiser.

After activation, any limits set by the team captain will be overwritten. However, if you reset it at a later time, the previously set limit will also be reset.
Existing teams that already have more members than your set maximum will remain intact. Suppose you have a team of 6 people, and you set a maximum of 4 people per team over the entire campaign, then that team will keep those six people. Therefore, make sure that you have set it up properly beforehand. This can be done by a site administrator, sub site administrator, and campaign administrator.
The option 'allow team members' disappears the moment you set a maximum number of team members over a certain level. A team captain can therefore no longer set the maximum himself
You can set the cap at site level, sub site level and campaign level and there is no inheritance in it (so it is only for that level).

Registration fee

When registering a participant/fundraiser, it is possible to charge a registration fee, so registering for the event and creating the personal fundraising page is one integrated process.
 
The registration fee must always be paid when creating an fundraiser, regardless of whether you sign up as a member of a team or as an individual participant. Registration fees can be added at multiple levels and 'inherit down'. When registration fees are added at the website level, any sub sites and campaigns receive this same registration fee. It is then possible to override the registration fee if there is a different value at the relevant level. It is possible to add multiple registration fee options (with different amounts).
Participants can decide how they want to be registered. This can be useful, for example, for:

Different distances with different starting rates;
Age groups where children pay a reduced rate;
In addition to the regular registration rate, offer a 2nd rate where a T-shirt of the event is offered.

Add registration fee
Settings ⟶ registration fee
The Add registration fee button allows you to add the option(s), asking for a title and amount. Next to this, it asks whether the paid registration fee should be included in the counter position on the website. Usually, the registration fee is meant to cover expenses and is not included (as donation money) in the counter position, but this can of course vary.

Change registration fee
Settings ⟶ Registration fee
By clicking the Edit button, it is possible to edit the title and amount of the option. This can be useful when offering an early bird option, where the amount is increased over time.
View chosen registration fee
- The campaigner himself and the site administrator can see what registration fee the campaigner has paid by managing the campaign under My Entry. In addition, the registration fee choice can be viewed in the participants' exports.
- On the fundraising page, the chosen registration fee is always displayed. This is a fixed element of the page and cannot be hidden. 
- Registration fees are reflected in the Excel export of all fundraisers and donations.

Fundraising page optional

It may happen that people want to register, for example for an event, but do not want to create a separate Fundraising page for this purpose. In such a case, you can set the sponsor page to be optional. You set this up by going to the level where you want to set this up and then going to Settings > Fundraising page optional and choosing to make Fundraising page optional there. 

In the Sign up flow, the step where you create the Fundraising page will have a slider:

If you create the action page, the slider will appear at the step where you create the action page.
If you then click this slider you can continue without creating a Fundraising page:

After completing the registration, the participant will receive the 'Welcome email after signing up participant'. If he/she has joined a team then he/she will receive the 'Welcome email after joining team'. If E-tickets are used then the participant will also receive the e-tickets.
 
A participant will appear as 'registration' in the action overview after completing the registration:

A participant can still create a sponsorship page if desired, by going to 'My Registration' and clicking on 'Create a sponsorship page'.

On the platform, you can see the participants by going to the Overview of Participants. That defaults to /participants.
