Ability to modify & personalize a giving form by adjusting the link to include amount
The ability to modify a base donation link to prepopulate appeal code, gift amount, and an array of personalized allocations for a specific donor AND have the appeal code pass through the gift into reporting. This would allow for modifications in the link similar to "&desname=" or "&desid=" for example, "&amount=" and "&appealcode=" to allow for A/B testing, more precise tracking, and personalized gift opportunities for donors.
Admin note: Appeal and Designation name and ID are already supported.

Here's a sample from the Anthology product, Encompass to show what im talking about.
https://secureia.drexel.edu/s/1683/form/16/form.aspx?sid=1683&gid=2&pgid=477&cid=1122&dids=3.17.606.340&sort=1&appealcode=SAMPLE&bledit=1
in their code modification:
"&DIDS=" is equivalent to you NXT's designation ID, so it's pulling in the ID number of the designations (and showing them as whatever they're saved as in the platform). one designation can be used, or many. the donor cannot modify the options showing but can chose to support one, some, or all.
"&sort=1" is forcing the sort order of the designation ids as they are listed, where as not including the sort function would defaults to alphabetical
"&amount=" is pushing the amount listed in the URL, the donor can modify this portion if they want to give a different amount
"&appealcode=" is pushing an appeal code through which is exportable in the download of gifts. a single form could have unlimited links featuring different appeal codes.

Thank you! the only way to embed the appeal code is to create a totally separate giving form in NXT, which isn't practical. i would love to be able to personalize the amount, the allocation /designation options (currently you can only prepopulate ONE designation, but if a donor has supported two or three in the past giving them the option to have a form personalized to them with all relevant options would be ideal), and the ability to embed an appeal code using something like "&appeal= " instead of creating an entirely new form.

I hit send to soon! For your note about plural designations, can you tell me how you'd expect the form to react to plural designations pulled from the hyperlink? Would that constitue the dropdown for designation selections? Or should it start a "cart" and donors would have to enter an amount for each designation?

We recently released (Q4 of last year) the ability to pass through designation name, designation ID and appeal codes via the hyperlink on hosted forms. You can find more information here: https://webfiles-sc1.blackbaud.com/files/support/helpfiles/tcs/content/donfm-link-params-tutorial.html?Highlight=appeal
We are working on supporting parameters on forms embedded in your website. We are evaluating adding gift amount this year. I will modify this Idea for "amount" so that we can see voting for that aspect specifically!
