We made it a priority this spring to make 6 big upgrades to helphopelive.org to improve your online experience. Here’s how we upgraded your Campaign Page, Event Registration, Find A Campaign search, and more.
Dynamic Cropping for Your Profile Photo
Now you have more control over how your profile picture will appear to page visitors by using our new dynamic picture cropping tool. Click and drag the outer guides to get your picture to fit just right in the circular profile photo. Upload a new picture or select an existing picture from your Campaign Page to try it out!
Raise More Money With Online Event Registration
People who register for a fundraising event through your Campaign Page can now add an ‘Additional Donation’ to your campaign with one click as they’re checking out. Many of you were manually customizing your event registration forms to include this. We noticed. Now you don’t have to. We’ve added it for you.
Give vs. Donate: Seamless Access
Misclicks happen! If your supporters accidentally select the Donate button at the top of our website instead of your campaign Give button, this action will now take them to the donation form for your Campaign Page rather than our general Donate page.
Live Links and Email Addresses!
Want to post a link or email address as part of your Campaign Page About or Updates sections? Now links and email addresses will automatically become live clickable links when you enter them. Links will automatically be shortened for a smooth user experience. Works great in your Guestbook, too!
Faster, Stronger Search
You gave us feedback, and we listened. Searching for a campaign has never been faster or easier. We made sure our Find a Campaign feature works seamlessly whether a user searches for a client’s full name or just part of a name.
This list doesn’t even cover all we’ve been able to upgrade behind-the-scenes lately, including smoother recurring donation processing and search engine optimization to help families in need find our services and your Campaign Page even faster. From IT to Client Services to Finance to Communications, Help Hope Live staff and leadership are constantly looking for ways to make life easier for you and your community.
Take a minute to explore some of our site’s newest features and functions. We hope you love what you see. Stay tuned for additional upgrades this summer.
