Lock Live Fundraising Components After Publish

Release Date: June 11th, 2026

Why Are We Changing This?

Once a fundraiser is published and running, turning a component off mid-event can be damaging and hard to recover from.  This change closes that gap so these types of mistakes can't happen.

What's Changing

After a fundraiser is published, every fundraising component that was enabled at publish is now greyed out and can no longer be disabled. Organizers keep full freedom to add new components after publishing — and those newly added components stay toggle-able right up until the next Relaunch. Once relaunched, the new components lock the same way the original ones did.

The behavior in three steps:

1. Publish with components enabled → those components can't be disabled, but new ones can still be added.
2. Enable new components → they remain disable-able while they aren't live yet.
3. Relaunch with the new components → they lock too, just like the originally published ones.

However, global administrators can still disable a locked component — but only when no transactions are tied to that activity yet — so support can help an organizer who truly enabled something by accident.
