Adding a website Component of "Donor Listing" to add to Donation Forms

It would be great to have an additional website component to add to donation forms in RENXT.

The option to add a donor listing through embed code with the following parameters:

Name format: First and Last; First and Last Initial: Recognition Name;
Source: Donation Form; Fund; Gift List
Dates: Start & End
Format: Font; Font Size; Font color; Background color
Animation: Vertical Scroll; Horizontal Scroll; None
Sort Order: Date (Asc or Desc)

I would suggest having an option on the donation forms to opt out of any donation form donor listings/rolls (which may be treated differently than an anonymous gift which could be removed from ANY donor recognition).

    I just read a study (Recognizing Contributors: an experiment on public goods; Samek & Sheremeta, 2013), that concluded that recognizing Top donors does not result in baseline increases in giving, and that recognizing All donors or the Bottom donors are more effective in increasing overall giving, and are equally effective. Something about feelings of shame from being recognized as poor contributors is a stronger motivator than feelings of prestige from being recognized as top contributors.

    We have a big public recognition board in our lobby that displays donors in tiers based on total annual giving starting at $500, updated monthly, but a simple website component like the one suggested here would be an amazing way to recognize all donors who gave via a certain donation form. Even donor name and gift amount would be enough.
