- To configure the email notifications received by your organization admins and by Public Pages donors, click on the Configure Notifications button.
- On the Admin Notifications tab of the Notification page, you will see the email notifications available for admins to receive.
- To activate an email notification, check the box next to the notification, and enter an email address that the notifications will be sent to.
- The templates for these emails can be edited in the Email Notifications page under Configuration.
- You can also edit the activation email sent to new Public Page users from the Email Notifications page.
- For more on editing email notification templates please see the tutorial on editing Email Notifications.
- If you wish to automatically generate and email, donation acknowledgments for online donors, click on the Donation Acknowledgement tab of the Notification page and check the box indicating this preference.
- Next you will need to configure the template for the acknowledgement that will be sent to donors.
- Start by giving a name to the template for the system to use.
- Continuing, indicate the Sender Name, Sender Email, and Email Subject that the donor will see for the acknowledgement email they receive.
- The content of the template may be specified in the provided editor on the right.
- To personalize the email for the contact and the donation made, the system provides placeholder options, that once placed, will automatically insert the relevant information into the email.
- To insert a placeholder, click on the area in your template where you wish to make the insertion.
- Next select the placeholder desired from the Placeholder dropdown and click the Add(+) button to the right of the drop down.
- It is recommended that you include the Full Name and Donation Details placeholder at some point in the template so that the donor’s name and contribution are shown in the acknowledgement.
- Further, as this document will act as the donor’s record for tax purposes, your organization’s “tax ID number” should be included somewhere in the template.
- When you have finished configuring your donation acknowledgement template click the Save button below the editor.
