Fundraising Thermometer Plugin for Wordpress

The plugin interface, for WordPress

Features

Example of a fund raising image from the new plugin

The fund raising tool is a true WordPress plug-in, testing with WordPress 2.7 and fully functional. It features:

  • W3C compliant Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
  • Dynamically updated text including target and current fund status
  • Money formating options for use internationally
  • Theme options, allowing designers to customize the look of the thermometer
  • Call either the graphic or a formated number to display in text.

Admin Features

The new interface allows uses to set both the current amount (what has been raised) as well as the target amount (what you want to raise). The script automatically generates the ten steps in between and displays them for the user.


The plugin auto detects if the money_format() function is present and will use it automatically if found, otherwise it will display the currency using the number format function automatically.

How It Works

To display the current amount of money raised (in currently format) place the following code in your theme:

<?php echo show_ourprogress();?>

For a graphical version (by default the thermometer), include the following code:

<?php show_ourprogress_graphic();?>

Where to Get It

The plugin can be downloaded from the official WordPress repository:

How You Can Help

I love developing plugins for WordPress and do my best to always keep them free but of course it take a lot of time and effort to build these plugins so if you’d like to say thanks, the best way is to take a few moments and write about the plugin on your own website, include a link to my website from your posts or download and rate the plugin on the official plugin directory.
