CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I'm working with a small non-profit that helps underprivileged kids get outdoors.  Many are not native English speakers and aren't the best written communicators.

We've enabled PCPs for them, but would like to pre-populate the welcome and message text boxes with some boiler plate text, they can accept as is, or tweak to their needs.

I've found I can edit the text above the fields here:

/civicrm/templates/CRM/Contribute/Form/PCP/Campaign.tpl

by hard coding some text in, but would like to actually have the respective text appear in the text boxes.

We also have different PCPs.  One for students, the other for volunteer leaders (chaperons) for the kids.  While we don't really need the text for the volunteer leaders, as most are college kids, it'd still be nice to have.

Can someone provide some direction?

Thanks !

Hi there.  Sounds like an html question than a civicrm question.

This should do the trick:

For a text area:
<textarea>Put your text here.</textarea> For a textbox
<input type="text" value="Put your text here." />

One for students, the other for volunteer leaders (chaperons) for the kids.  While we don't really need the text for the volunteer leaders, as most are college kids, it'd still be nice to have.

You could use smarty tags to conditionally set this text.

I imagine that there is specific code for pre-populating the amount field.
