Question about new feature to credit offline gift to personal campaign pages
February 16, 2011, 02:31:44 pm

Hi there, I have a question about the new 3.4 feature to credit offline contributions to a personal campaign page. Will this be limited specifically to offline gifts only, or will we be able to credit online contributions to a personal campaign page? The description says "This feature provides back-office staff with the ability to credit an offline contribution (via check, cash, etc.) to a constituent's Personal Campaign Page (PCP)."

What if someone makes an online gift through a standard contribution page and includes a note saying "Please credit this to Sam's birthday campaign"

OR

If someone pays an event registration that I want to apply to a PCP ? One scenario that's come up for us: we are registering people for a recreational fundraiser where they agree to run/walk xxx miles and raise $$$, and we want the registration fee to apply toward their fundraising total. So a person registers online, pays his/her registration fee, sets up a PCP, and then I want to apply the registration fee to his/her PCP.

Any contribution can be credited to a Personal Campaign page (online, offline, event-related, etc.).

You can try this out on the 3.4 sandbox.
Login at: http://sandbox.civicrm.org/
User = demo
PW = demo

Navigate to "Add Contribution" form:
http://sandbox.civicrm.org/civicrm/contact/view/contribution?reset=1&action=add&context=contribution&cid=103

Click "credit this contribution to a personal campaign page" (below the "Soft Credit To" field). Find the one sample PCP by typing in the letter 'r' in the quick search box.

Excellent, thanks for confirming. This is going to be a very helpful new feature.
