Giving Forms & School Website

Michaela Walker

Hi all, I am new to using Education Management. I was hoping to be able to utilize Online Express on our school website, but have learned that it isn't compatible. I have been advised to use Education Management Giving Forms. How have others handled gift entry when using the Giving Forms? Since it appears, does not integrate with Raiser's Edge NXT. Does anyone have any advice, work-arounds?

@Michaela Walker You can embed Online Express to School Website pages. The donation form on this web page is an Online Express form:

We have had some issues with Online Express forms and Blackbaud is pushing the use of RE NXT forms. Because of some processing issues with RE NXT forms, we do not use those yet.

That is great news! Do you know how/where the Javascript is embedded on the web page? Blackbaud provided instructions, but I don't know if it's correct (my web manager hasn't been able to test it out yet).

This is the knowledgebase that BB provided:

@Lynn Egan @Michaela Walker We also embed it. Our gift administrator provides me the code. https://laurelschool.myschoolapp.com/page/giving/laurel-fund

@Michaela Walker There is an embed section that you pull onto the page and put the code in there.

@Michaela Walker Our gifts admin emails me the code. From there:

1- Copy the code.
2- On your web page in layout mode, drag the EMBED widget into a row.
3- Click the gear box to reveal the space to paste your code. Add a header if you like.

Let me know if it works out for you!
