The problem
If you want to raise a specific amount in a campaign, well, you can’t.
There is an Amount option, but this actually gives you Monthly Amount Raised. This means in effect that all money raised is divided by 12. This is quite confusing to end users who wonder why their donation made so little difference.
I’ve worked around this by simply changing the text to make it explicit after my $10 test donation:
Suggestion
That discourse_subscriptions_campaign_type option(s) be modified thus:
- Amount is changed to Monthly Amount Raised
- add Yearly Amount Raised
- add Total Amount
