Add Parameters to Webpage URLs

After you find the IDs for the designation or appeal you want to track for a donation form, add them to the URL of the web page where:

  • the Standard Donation Form is embedded.

  • the Optimized Donation Form is launched from a hyperlink or button.

    Note: Optimized Forms are not embeddable like Standard Forms. Only the Optimized Loader Script can be embedded on a webpage or the root of the website.

You can have only one designation and appeal parameter at the end of the webpage's URL. Add the following parameters and replace "ID" with the appropriate ID:

  • &desid=ID for a designation

  • &desname=Name for a donor-friendly designation name

  • &appealid=ID for an appeal

URL Examples

Your form is on this web page: https://fresh-air.org/donate.

  • Add a parameter to the end of the URL: https://fresh-air.org/donate&desid=23

  • Add more than one parameter to the end of the URL: https://fresh-air.org/donate&desid=23&desname=Wilderness%20Fund&appealid=145

    Tip: If the designation name has spaces, %20 automatically replaces the spaces when you use the URL.

Note: If the webpage contains multiple donation forms, the URL parameters override any designation or appeal configured within the forms.
