Development Log Update: March 4th, 2024
Add New "Pre-registration" Setting
Release Date: January 16, 2024
Short Description: The team is updating the Experience pre-registration setting and minor updates to the pre-registration workflow. These changes aim to streamline the user experience and ensure that only pre-registered users can participate in the Experience.
New Option for Pre-Registered Donors Exclusivity:
- This option will only appear when users select that pre-registration lasts until the Experience starts.
- When enabled, only users who pre-registered before the Experience started will be able to participate in the Experience.
- For experiences with multiple activity types, the pre-registration behavior will follow the activity type, not the whole experience.
Experience Page Behavior:
- A new banner will be displayed when the Experience starts, informing users that only pre-registered users can participate and prompting them to log in.
- This banner will only be shown to users who did not pre-register.
- The "Login" button and the preceding sentence will only be visible if the user isn't logged in.
New Modal:
- A new modal will be shown whenever a user tries to add something to their cart and they are not pre-registered.
Pre-Registration for Solo Campaigns:
- For solo campaigns, the redundant checkbox for enabling pre-registration will be hidden, and only the required/optional setting will be shown.
- This setting will function the same as the button group shown in the provided screen recording.
Move Pre-Registration Settings:
- Pre-registration and all associated settings will be moved to "Options > Checkout Options"
- This will place the pre-registration settings right above the "Notice" card in the Options menu.
How This Affects You:
- Pre-Registered Donors Only: Users who did not pre-register before the Experience started will not be able to participate in the Experience.
- New Banner: Users who did not pre-register will see a new banner prompting them to log in when the Experience starts.
- Login Prompt: The "Login" button and the preceding sentence will only be visible to users who are not logged in.
- New Modal: Users who are not pre-registered will see a new modal when they try to add something to their cart.
- Solo Campaigns: For solo campaigns, users will no longer see the redundant checkbox for enabling pre-registration, simplifying the process.
- Settings Relocation: Pre-registration settings will be moved to "Options > Checkout Options," making them easier to find and manage.

Improve UX for Raffle Setup When Account Setup is Incomplete
Release Date: January 27, 2025
Short Description: Previously, users had to verify their EIN (Employer Identification Number) before previewing a raffle. Now, users can explore and test the raffle before verifying their EIN. If an organization is a recent 501(c)3 organization that cannot yet be verified automatically, the user can be accepted upon manual verification through your support teams and SysAdmin.
Key Changes:
✔ Users can preview raffle features before EIN verification.
✔ The EIN is still required before publishing a campaign.
✔ A new Validate EIN button allows users to check EIN status manually.

Update Tooltip Wording for PayPal Transactions
Release Date: January 27, 2025
Short Description: The tooltip that describes how transactions are processed now provides PayPal-specific messaging when PayPal is used instead of Stripe.
Updated Tooltip for PayPal:
"Card transactions are processed securely by PayPal, a PCI Level 1 processor that transacts billions of dollars every year for some of the world's largest companies. [Partner name] does not collect or store any card information."

Require Unique Names for Prizes/Items in Setup
Release Date: January 30, 2025
Short Description: To avoid confusion, campaigns must now use unique names for prizes, auction items, perks, and other items. If a duplicate name is entered, a validation message will prompt users to rename it.
How It Works:
- When adding a prize, auction item, or perk, enter a unique name.
- If the name is already used, an error message will appear.
- Rename the item and save.

Add New Setting to Include Check Donations in Amount Raised Before Marking as Received
Release Date: January 31, 2025
Short Description: A new setting allows check donations to count toward the Amount Raised even before they are marked as "Received." This gives a more accurate fundraising total in real-time.
How to Enable This Feature:
- Go to Campaign Settings.
- Look for the Check Donations section.
- Toggle the setting to "Include check donations before they are marked as received."
Important Notes:
✔ This setting is OFF by default.
✔ Organizations can enable or disable it at any time.
✔ Only applicable if check donations are accepted for the campaign.

Improve Logic For Requiring Unique Item/Prize names
Release Date: February 11, 2025
Description: We have implemented logic updates to the unique item/prize name functionality.
- Validation logic added to require unique prize/item names on imports
- Add validation to require unique prize/item names when copying an item name
- Previously, when you copy an item name, it creates a duplicate of the item (see screen recording).
- The following naming convention is now used for copied items.
- When duplicated, the name "Copy of 'X'" will now be used, where 'X' is the previous item name.
- If the organization makes another copy of "X" it will be called "Copy of X (1)" If they make another copy, "Copy of X (2)" and so on.

Add Item ID to Auction Items for Organizers
Release Date: February 17th, 2025
Description: We have added the auction item ID to the auction item cards so that they are visible to organizers on the campaign. This change assists organizers in matching items to their winners from the Auction Winners export without relying on the name of the item, which has caused confusion in the past.
We formatted the Item IDs on the auction item card when viewing them through experience setup, similar to how the experience ID is displayed when viewing the Experience Management object.
