Configuring the Web Settings for the Make a Bigger Impact Control

Please note that the Make a Bigger Impact control is a "composite" control, meaning that it contained other controls by default. Therefore, when this control is dropped on a page, the Membership Contributions and Special Interests Groups controls are automatically included as part of this control and no additional configuration is needed for those controls. The control settings for this control are automatically cascaded to the control settings for each of these other controls. The Membership Contributions and Special Interests Groups controls are provided as separate controls in case you want to customize a separate process to include these controls.

This is NOT a standalone control, which means that in order for it to function, it needs to be incorporated into a workflow. In order for this control to work as part of the online membership join process, you must set the Membership Join Step 3 URL parameter in the control settings for the Configuring the Web Settings for the Membership Join Options Control.

As of 7.6.1, this control can be configured to be responsive to mobile users. After adding the responsive CSS to this page, your mobile phone user will see the control on the responsive page similar to the one shown below. For more information about using this control on a responsive page, please see Configuring Responsive CSS for the Login Page.

To configure the web settings for the Make a Bigger Impact control:   

1.    Add the "MembershipJoinBiggerImpactControl" to the desired page. For more information, please see Adding a .NET Web Control to a Page.
The following Control Settings display for this control, as shown below.

Control Setting

Description

Additional CSS Class for Control

Enter the CSS class, if necessary. This option allows you to add additional layout to the skin by developing a new DOTNETNUKE style, which requires an advanced understanding of HTML and CSS.

Cancel Return URL

You should set the PWF parameter to the URL that will open when the user clicks "Cancel". Best practice is to bring the user back to the page that contains the Membership Listing control. If this PWF parameter does not exist or you would like to create a new one, see Setting up PWF Parameters for more information.

Error Message

If necessary, select or create a new error message. The error message will display on the control for the action that was being performed at the time of the error. If left blank, the default error message, "An error occurred while performing [Insert Action]. If the problem persists, please contact the site administrator", will display. [Insert Action] will be substituted with the action the control was performing at the time of the error. If you wish to change the default error message, customize it with a PWF parameter. See Setting up PWF Parameters for more information.

Image Directory

This is the name of the image to display if the Membership Product does not have a small image defined. The default image is “not_available.gif", as shown below, and this ensures that the image exists in the image directory. If you would like to change this default image, replace the not_available.gif file in the image folder with the default image file of your choice.

Minimum amount for contribution

Enter the minimum amount of money that a web user can donate to your organization (e.g., 0).

Order Create URL

You should set the PWF parameter to a value that will take the constituent to that URL in your site when he/she creates an order. If this PWF parameter does not exist or you would like to create a new one, see Setting up PWF Parameters for more information.

This should be set to the Order Create page, not the Checkout page.

ProductID URL Parameter

By default, this is set to "productId", but if the environment's redirection logic uses a different Query String name set it here.

RateCode URL Parameter

By default, this is set to "RateCode", but if the environment's redirection logic uses a different Query String name set it here.

Show Add to Cart

Check this checkbox to display the "Add to Cart" button.

Show Buy Now

Show Contribution Amount if Zero

This defaults to checked so that the special interest groups amount displays in the buy box when there is no cost. If this is unchecked, the special interest groups price will NOT display in the buy box if there is no cost. This should be unchecked if you do not have any special interest groups.

Validation Msg. for Minimum contribution amount

This message displays on the web to your user when the amount he/she contributed is less than the minimum contribution amount, as highlighted below.

View Cart URL

You should set the PWF parameter to a value that will take the constituent to that URL in your site when he/she creates an views his/her current cart. If this PWF parameter does not exist or you would like to create a new one, see Setting up PWF Parameters for more information.
