Pass donation frequency to Church Center Modal via query #1250

Closed starkinator closed 1 day ago

starkinator commented 1 day ago

Hey team 👋 I've got a feature request for 🌱 Giving

I was curious if there was a chance to get URL parameter support for something like frequency=monthly so we can prepopulate that form field in the Church Center Modal popup.

We often run giving campaigns that preference regular giving on a monthly cycle, and we want to be able to link people directly to a giving form that has some fields pre-populated to give them a head start. We've been making use of the default_amount value that was shipped in 2021, and by chance we stumbled on the fact that you can set recurring=true to load the form with the frequency set to 'regularly' which is nice (Maybe a recent update?)

What are the chances of extending the URL parameters to support something like frequency=monthly as well?

This is what we're hoping to achieve:

https://church-name-here.churchcenter.com/giving?default_amount=50&recurring=true&frequency=monthly&open-in-church-center-modal=true

Ideally someone would land on a form that looks like the screenshot here:

Hi @starkinator, thanks for this feature request! I see the value in supporting a pre-populated frequency on the donation form. I've brought this up with our product manager and opened an internal request ticket.

I will close this issue and reply here when there is any movement on this request. Please feel free to reply with anything else.
