"Other" Fund in NXT Donation Forms
Add the option "Other" to the Funds drop-down menu in the web donation forms, and a new text box will appear, giving the donor the choice to put down the fund they desire. This capability was formerly available in OLX -Forms.

Add more open text fields/custom fields on NXT donation form

Add "other" option for fund on NXT Donation Designer Form

Having an "Other" Fund option that allows the donor to input their own fund
Merged When picking a fund/designation, a donor should be able to pick "Other" as an option which triggers a text box to appear so that the donor can input the fund they want to donate to.0 Reviewed: Voting Open

I have leadership, MGOs, donors, and board members request this often. I just had this request two days ago from an MGO, and about a month ago from a board member. The search function NXT provided a while ago is too clunky. We need a real, workable option so donors feel we are listening to them.
We also have to have an "other" option and can't move to the new form until this is available. Our donors have varying reasons for giving a gift and we can't anticipate every reason in our fund list.
We will not be able to move to the new platform with being able to allow other funds. We can't anticipate every reason why a donor wants to give, so though we list popular or time-relevant funds in our fund list, we have to be able to give donors an option to tell us that they're giving for another reason.
As others have said: we cannot move to NXT donation forms until this is available.
This would be very helpful as it's yet another reason I haven't fully switched over to NXT forms.
This is needed!!! can't move to NXT until this is added - way to many funds for a drop down!!
With a conditional logic field, donors are prompted to see that come up versus a comment section that will be easily overlooked because it's static.
I concur with Sarah Starr Zechman and other colleagues regarding "other" and/or conditional logic within the donation pages.
I can confirm that this is not currently an option on the NXT forms. Many customers are using the Comments field to capture write-in fund requests.
Does anyone know if this has been resolved on NXT forms? I was told this was an option now, but I cannot find the setting when building the standard form. Thank you!
Yes, this absolutely needs to happen. I am not switching over from OLX until this change is made.
Can not overemphasize the need for this. Donors can not be expected to scroll thru over 2000 funds to find their named scholarship/endowment/dept fund...
Really makes forms unusable for us.
Definitely need an option for "other" that is not tied to a fund. Love the idea of being able to have some conditional logic - either for the text box or search fund to appear.
Conditional logic would be great here. It would give us more control over how the form should be created. However, at the very least, we need the ability to allow someone to select "other." Then, only after "other" is selected, either a text box allowing the donor to type in their favorite fund would appear, or another drop down box would appear that the donor could select from a more robust list of funds. If we could decide which option we wanted to use, even better.
Agreed!
