What’s new in Give AWeber 1.0.4

Version 1.0.4 · Jul 11, 2019 Latest

ImprovedRemoved deprecated hooks for added compatibility for Give Core 2.5.0+. Note: Please ensure you are using the latest version of Give Core prior to updating.

What it does

Collecting donations and growing a mailing list often happen in separate places, which means exporting donor details and adding them to email lists by hand. Give AWeber removes that step. Once you connect your AWeber account, donors see an opt-in checkbox on your GiveWP forms, and anyone who ticks it is added to the AWeber list you picked. Giving and subscribing happen in the same moment, so the donation process stays simple for the donor.

The add-on gives you control at two levels. You can set a global default mailing list that applies to every donation form, then override it on individual forms so donors to a special event or targeted drive land on a list made for that campaign. Donors can be subscribed to more than one list at once, and you can change the opt-in label text and the checkbox values globally or per form. It requires the GiveWP plugin.

Best for

Nonprofits using GiveWP to accept donations
Fundraising teams that send donor newsletters through AWeber
Organizations running separate campaigns that need segmented lists

Features

AWeber account connection

Connect your AWeber account through an authentication process so your GiveWP donation forms can send opted-in donors straight to your AWeber mailing lists.

Global default mailing list

Choose one mailing list that applies across all of your donation forms, which keeps broad email outreach consistent without configuring every form separately.

Per-form list overrides

Pick different AWeber lists for specific donation forms so donors to a particular campaign or event are grouped on the list that matches it.

Multiple list subscriptions

Let a donor join one or more mailing lists at the same time with a single donation, so they can hear about several areas of your work.

Custom opt-in labels

Write your own text for the opt-in checkbox, either as a site-wide setting or individually on each form, to explain what subscribers will receive.

Custom checkbox values

Set the data sent with each opt-in checkbox globally or per form, which helps with tracking where subscribers came from and organizing your audience.

Checkbox opt-in during giving

Donors subscribe by ticking a box on the donation form, so list signups happen without sending them to a separate page or form.

Questions about Give AWeber

Do I need GiveWP for this to work?

Yes. Give AWeber is an add-on for the GiveWP donation plugin, so GiveWP must be active on your site. The add-on adds AWeber opt-in options to the donation forms you build with GiveWP.

Can different donation forms send donors to different AWeber lists?

Yes. You can set a global default list for all forms and then override it on any individual form. That way donors to a specific campaign or event can be added to a list dedicated to it.

Are donors added to my list automatically, or do they choose?

Donors choose. An opt-in checkbox appears on the donation form, and only donors who check it are subscribed. You can customize the checkbox label so they know what they are signing up for.

Can one donor be added to more than one list?

Yes. The add-on supports subscribing a donor to one or more mailing lists at the same time with a single donation, based on the lists you configure.
