Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Campaign or Donation Page widget do?
A widget displays a brief description of your Campaign or Donation Page on your organization’s website with a clickable button that directs visitors straight to your fundraising page. It’s an effective way to promote your fundraiser directly from your own site.
Can I customize the appearance of my widget?
Yes, you can customize both the text and colors of your widget before downloading the code. This allows you to match the widget to your organization’s branding and website design.
Where do I add the widget code on my website?
After downloading the widget code from RallyUp, you’ll need to add it to your organization’s website. If you need help with this step, contact your website provider or webmaster for instructions on embedding the code.
What happens if I update my widget settings after adding it to my website?
If you change any widget settings in RallyUp, you must download the new code and replace the old code on your website. The widget won’t automatically update, so you need to manually update the code for changes to appear.
Can I modify the widget code to change how it looks?
No, you should not make any changes to the downloaded widget code, as modifications will cause it to stop working properly. Use the customization options in RallyUp’s Create Widget tool instead to adjust text and colors before downloading.
