Adding Link to Facebook

Susan Johnston

We are a non profit and our FB page was set up as such. The Donate button automatically links to PayPal, I do not think this can be changed. How are you adding the Blackbaud link to FB for donations?


Thank you.

Melissa Hoener

That is a great question. I would love to know too.

Be mindful that Facebook is now appending *FBCLID" tracking codes to any links people post and services with tighter security will often throw errors if that tracking string is present. If you experience problems with the tracking codes present, use a url shortener like Bitly before posting it on Facebook. That will strip the tracking code Facebook applies as it's converted and avert errors.

Greg, 


Thank you so much. My issue is FB is forcing the donate button to point to PayPal. I can not see if there was a way to change that?
