This week, Raiser's Edge NXT announces that the new web components feature is now generally available in the US. Also, the web portal includes enhancements to how you configure features.

Display a goal's progress and stats on your website (now generally available in the US)


With Website components, you can create custom goal meters and key metrics to display on your website to show donors the impact of their gifts. The components update dynamically on your website when more gifts are donated towards your goal.

From Tools, Website components, select New component. Select Goal meter to create a custom progress bar showing the gifts donated towards a goal. Select a gift date range, change the styling as desired, and then copy the code to embed on your website.

From Tools, Website components, select New component. Select Key metric to create and customize any of the following goal stats: amount raised, number of donations, percent of goal, or amount remaining. Select a gift date range, change the styling as desired, and then copy the code to embed on your website.

You can edit or delete your saved website components from Tools, Website components.

For more information, see Website components.

Enhancements to portal feature configuration (available in the US)


To provide more control over which features are available in your organization’s portal, we made changes to Feature configuration in Tools, Settings. Admins can now individually enable or disable these features that were previously included with Giving in portal:

  • Recurring gifts: Users can view their recurring gifts and stop their future payments.

  • Credit card payment methods: Users can save and update credit and debit card information.

  • Bank payment methods: Users can save and update bank account information.

Also, the Giving history and Profile features used to be turned on for everyone automatically and couldn’t be disabled. Now you have the option to disable them for your organization’s portal.

For more information, see Portal Feature Configuration.
