First Giving Functionality in CiviCRM
April 15, 2008, 09:36:51 pm
We would like to develop functionality in CiviCRM similar to what you get on www.firstgiving.com.  I have mocked up some sample screen shots on how we would want this to look, and I have been working with some folks on getting it developed.

With that being the case, I would love some feedback on how we should best implement this.  You can pull down the specification that we developed here: http://www.fpwr.org/sites/www.fpwr.org/files/RaiseMoney-FPWR.pdf.  Let me know what you think in terms of how to build this.  From a basic architecture perspective, I think all of the building blocks for CiviCRM are there: contribution pages, CiviEvent. Its just a matter of "how do you plug those together to create this functionality?"

Love your thoughts

Based on the mockups we have planned to make the module by connecting civi contribute civi contact and civi event modules. The basic idea is that all civicontacts are able to create their own contribution pages. Contribution page is created for an event. The fpwr_contribution_pages table holds this relationship between civievent, civicontribute and civicontact data along with other settings data. May be the attached erd explains more....

Do you want to give us a few more details of your use case. We've been thinking about what are the features needed. So your input would be great. Specifics of how you/your org would use it would help determine what we implement in phase 1 / 2 etc

Let me see, here is the functionality we are looking for.

A user registers on the site and has the fields to create a personal fundraising page, which they can associate with an event (5k run, banquet, etc.)

So the user fills in a description of what they are doing, what event its for, etc. and it generates a contribution page with the progress bar widget (for only the money they have raised).  This page would have a comments section and a send to friend option as well.  I think that is it, hope that makes sense, thanks!
