How can we help you?

To notify the backers of an update to your campaign, click on the top right icon.

Next go to “My Campaigns”.

From here, choose the campaign you want to update, then click “Manage Updates”.

Create your Update.

Make sure, if you want to send to all backers, that you have selected “All backers”, under “Who should see this?”. When you are finished click save.

When you are ready, click “publish”, then “yes” to the pop up.

To send an email notification, click “notify backers”.

This will send an email to all of the backers of the specified campaign.

When contributors click to contribute they have several options to choose from.

They can contribute as regular user with their information visible on the backer list, they can contribute either fully anonymous (where all of their information is hidden from the backer area) or partially anonymous (where some of the their information is hidden from the backer area).

In addition to these options they can also choose to contribute as special guest user. When contribution is made as guest user the user account is not created (because user has not supplied password) so contribution gets allocated to special portal user called “Guest User”. All contributions going through “Guest” option get allocated to this single and special “Guest” account.

Note that only difference between “Guest” contribution and “Regular Contribution” is that password field is removed so that account is not created. If you intend to accept regular contributions and want users to be created then please disable “Guest” mode and allow people to contribute in a regular way where they can select “Anonymous” contribution option if they do not want their information to be shown or shared.

Any of these modes can be enabled or disabled. For example you can disable guest contributions and allow only regular contributions. This is all controlled from the Administration Panel for your website portal.

You can also change name and email of this special “Guest User” by navigating to the Portal Administration -> Users interface. There simply locate the Guest User and edit that user. Make sure to never remove this special user.

All meta tags added or set via page editor in Web UI administration panel can be seen by inspecting the page (thus processing javascript code) or by using headless javascript processor. Screenshot showing this is below.

Note that the added meta tags won’t be seen through simple view source mechanism since they are dynamically added to the page once the page is loaded on the browser as the whole Web UI is angular built single page application.

Search engine crawlers pick these meta tags automatically when they process page (javascript code) either directly or through our pre-rendering cluster if they are not able to process javascript directly. Google has ability to index pages and process javascript natively. Therefore there should not be any issues in regards to search engine indexing.

Here is a quick overview of the difference between each of the plan subscriptions:

Discover: You can have only one website
Experiment: You can have up to 2 websites, and GIT access
Build: You can have up to 4 websites, GIT access, and you have the white label mobile app
Scale: You can have up to 6 websites, GIT access, and the white label mobile app

If you would like to upload a featured or top header image to a campaign via the API you will have to call a different endpoint than the one used for saving a campaign.

If you would like to POST an image you would call:

campaign/[Campaign ID]/resource/file

If you would like to PUT or DELETE an image you would call:

campaign/[Campaign ID/resource/file/[Image ID]

When uploading an image using either POST or PUT you MUST specify in the “Request Payload” the “resource_content_type” and the “region_id”.

For the featured and top header images the “resource_content_type” payload will always be “image”.

The “region_id” is where you would like the image to go. If you would like to upload a featured image then the “region_id” must be 3.

If you would like to upload a top header image then the “region_id” must be 5.

You should do a PUT on the image ID if the image already exists. If it doesn’t exist then do a POST.

When you select the “Auto Approve” toggle a new toggle becomes available called “Enable User Registration Notification”. 

Once checked auto approved users will receive an email using the email template called “Account Registration -User Notification” . This email template can be updated to suit your needs of for example a welcome email.

To get to the email notification templates you can go to

Admin Dashboard > Portal Settings >Email Notifications

Sometimes you may run into configuration issues with payment processing.

Please note that we do our best to help you with this including online help tutorials or assistance from our engineering team that can check or verify your payment configuration to ensure everything is correct.

Have you went over the following tutorial below on how to configure the main Stripe account for your website instance?

https://www.thrinacia.com/blog/post/how-to-setup-and-configure-your-stripe-account

Please make sure all the steps are followed in the above tutorial including creation of platform on Stripe.

Next, if you are planning to have project creator connect their stripe/bank account to campaign during campaign creation (like a kickstarter) for automatic distribution of funds, you will need to then follow the tutorial below.

https://www.thrinacia.com/blog/post/creating-a-campaign-and-connecting-your-stripe-account

Alternatively you can use “Direct Transaction” feature if you will not be having project creators connecting their accounts and all money will go into portal account only as per below and you may handle distribution of funds manually.

That means you only need to do the connection once at the portal level and funding step will be removed from campaign creation process.

Finally if you are seeing customers created but not charges then your issue may reside with charge modes. Thrinacia allows you to process payments in two charge modes.

1. Direct Charge Mode

or

2. Post Charge Mode

Defaults are for AoN type of campaign (All Or Nothing) that payments are processed in Post Charge Mode, and for KiA (Keep It All) type of campaigns that payments are processed in Direct Charge Mode.

These modes are configurable from the Administration Panel.

If you are indeed using AoN campaigns with Post Charges, then these should be tested as per tutorial below. Note that you will need to end campaign so it can be tested (for this please refer to “Test Post Processing” option).

Direct Charges do not require this as they are processed immediately.

If you are still experiencing problems with your Stripe configuration we will need to you to create a new support ticket on nexus.thrinacia.com and our team invited to your Stripe account temporarily (you can remove us later).

You can invite dev@thrinacia.com and our engineer can examine both your Stripe and your Website Configuration to ensure there are no issues.

Custom campaign URL path option for campaigns can easily be enabled from the Administration Web UI panel as per following screenshot. Make sure “Allow Custom Path” option is selected.

Once enabled campaigns can have custom URL paths such as for example: https://www.mywebsite.com/my-custom-campaign-path

The path can be set on Campaign Basics step during campaign creation as shown below.
