Comment on Nonprofits: Never Hire a Web Designer Without Asking these Questions by Lori @ Keystone Click

Great post. All valid questions to ask your web designer.
Also consider asking about ongoing maintenance fees, hosting fees, and make sure that your contract states that once the project is complete – you own the rights to the website. We’ve had clients who had to start from scratch because they never received the full rights to the site, even though they paid for the entire project.

Comment on “out-of-the-box” non-profit package for WordPress by Joshua

We are a USDA-organic certifying organization…we are also a non-profit. We are currently working on transitioning our organization over to WordPress (the website above is the one being transitioned).

Although we are a non-profit, we’ve never really positioned ourself as one, meaning we don’t actively ask for donations, recruit volunteers…but we’re hoping to change that.

I’d looked at NewOrg’s solution which is stellar, but pricey for us…and liked CiviCRM, but was intimidated by Drupal/Joomla. We’ve had great success with getting our new website up and running in WP, however when the time comes to REALLY into asking (and tracking) for donations, event registrations, etc. I’d love to use CiviCRM.

I see an initiative has started up to do so…hopefully by the time we’ll be ready for it…it will be too

I ran into a problem where it couldn’t load the mydonate.css file. My wordpress was installed in a subdirectory of the server’s docroot.

Within mydonate.php I modified line 115 to point to mydonate.css correctly

Simply removed

‘ . get_bloginfo(‘wpurl’) . ‘

and added /wordpress in place.

Also, the comment about the cid, DO NOT use c002 (or whatever the number is). ONLY USE 2
