Embed a Dynamic Ask component that links to a donation form

1. In the appropriate insertion point in your open content editor of a PageBuilder page or email message, type in a statement or phrase that introduces your donation form and select the insertion point for the component.

2. On the toolbar in the content editor, click the Insert Components icon.

3. In the Insert Component pop-up:

   1. For Component Type, click Donation.

   2. For Component, click Dynamic Ask.

4. In the Configure Component pop-up:

   1. For Donation Form, click the name of the form from the drop-down.

   2. For Start the calculation, select:

      • Highest Previous Contribution, which is the largest donation recorded in the history of the donor

      • Most Recent Contribution the donor has made

      • Year-to-Date Total of the donations given by this donor

      • Last Year Total Giving, which is the total amount of donations from the previous year

   3. Enter the default/minimum value to use for a donor who has not given previously or gave only a very small donation.

   4. Provide the amount to add to the base amount by entering a percentage (like 10%), a monetary amount, or both. (For example, you can enter a 10% increase plus a $10 increase, a 10% increase, or a $25 increase.)

   5. Optionally enter the rounding for the final suggested figure.

   6. Click Insert.

5. To add another amount, add a comma and then repeat the steps above to insert another Dynamic Ask component. For example, you need to add 3 components to dynamically ask the donor to "Give $50, $100, or $200 this year".

6. Complete the sentence and/or punctuation around the components to have them make sense.

   Note: The component supplies only the calculated monetary amount so you must enter all surrounding text and punctuation.

7. Save your changes and complete your email or page according to your standard procedures.
