2021.1 Release Notes

This month we’ve launched the next generation of Funraise’s Site editor, a user-friendly and powerful website creating tool that will be your new best friend. Quickly create brilliant fundraising websites, even if you’ve never done it before.

New Campaign Site Editor

To experience the new Campaign Site editor, just create a new Site! For a quick review of what’s new, check out the Site Editor Overview.

Good to know

  • Sites created before January 8, 2021 will continue to use the Legacy editor, so your existing Sites are unaffected.
  • Sites built with the Legacy Site editor will be sunset July 1, 2021. If you have any questions, contact your Success Manager.

Here are a few of our favorite new things:

Pages Sections

Add sections to your pages in any amount or order. You’ll be able to select from a library of prebuilt content sections.

Grids & Custom Layouts

Add columns and action cards to your page sections. You can control the padding and size of sections for a completely custom layout.

New Text Editor

We’re happy to say goodbye to the Legacy text editor and introduce a much-improved tool that allows you to edit text directly on the page.

Design Themes

Edit your’s Site’s font and color palette for efficient and consistent design processes. We’ve also enabled multiple theme variations that can be applied to page sections to highlight content or add a dynamic scrolling experience.

What’s next for Sites?

Good question—we’re certainly not done yet. Stay tuned for a few more enhancements coming to Sites:

Page Templates

We’ll be rolling out new page templates soon. Whether you need an event ticketing page or a virtual event page, we’ll have easy to use templates to choose from.

Fundraiser Page Customization

We’re also working on visual and functional enhancements to Peer-to-Peer Fundraiser pages that will enable fundraisers to further personalize their pages with text and media content.

A few other improvements to highlight…
