Design Scrolling Donor Display for Page Elements
For information about page element parts, see Page Element Types.

From the Design tab, select “Scrolling Donor Display” in the Display As field. |
Note: You can include the Scrolling Donor Display page element in a Fundraiser Page Elements part.

|
In the Display Name field, enter a name for the donor list section on the page. |
|
3.
|
In the CSS box, enter Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) text to override the default style of this element. |
Use CSS text to create unique elements such as colors, fonts and styles, and spacing for your part. CSS is easier to use than other methods, such as HTML. Unless you specify a custom style sheet, your website uses default style sheets. For more information about CSS, see Style Sheets.

In the Player options frame, in the Title field, enter a name for the donor wall. This title appears on your site. |

In the Width/Height field, enter the maximum dimensions in pixels for the donor wall. This setting defines the height and width of the boundary that contains the donor list. |

In the Scrolling direction field, select whether donor names scroll in ascending or descending order. |

Under Results options, select options for the part results that appear on the web page. You can filter the list of donors for the donor wall and enter text to appear in the donor wall. |
|
a.
|
In the Number of results field, select the number of donors to include on the donor wall. To include all donors, leave the default “All results.” You can filter the list of donors to 10, 25, 50, or 100 names. |
Warning: The more donors the list includes, the more hardware space used. This degrades the display load time. To avoid this risk, in the Number of results field, select “100” or lower.
|
b.
|
In the Sort results by field, select how the donor list should sort. You can select Top donations, Donor’s last name/organization name, or Most recent donations. |
Warning: If you select “All results,” the part processes a maximum of 10,000 gifts. If the maximum is met, the gifts that appear depend on the selection you make in the Sort results by field. For example, if you select to sort by “Most recent donations,” the 10,000 most recent donations appear on the page.

In the No results message field, enter the text to appear if the donor wall does not contain donor names. For example, enter “No gifts found. The Fundraiser may not yet have donors.” |
