Are you looking to add a Crowdfunding component to your existing site? If so, you may be wondering if you can use a plugin, or add a script to the site, and build a new UI, this article will show you a way to completely skip those steps, and allow you to use a turnkey solution.
Crowdfunding is a great way to gain donations for a new product or cause using the audience on your existing website. The only issue is looking to a solution that you can use on your site that you can implement yourself without having any knowledge about web development, or having to hire a developer to create such a feature to add on to your website. The reason why this is not a good idea is that it takes a lot of time to custom develop this type of feature, and it costs a lot of money.
Searching for the right solution
You may be struggling to find the right solution, instead of taking the time to research “drupal Crowdfunding plugin/script” or “Shopify Crowdfunding plugin/script”, you can look for a universal solution that you could use on any website. The popular website builders and CMS sites may or may not have a plugin, theme or script that is available. And if they do, can you trust that it will work on your site without any issues? After all, any free theme for WordPress, Drupal or any other CMS website, are not always reliable. And the same goes with using any types of plugins and scripts. Let’s explore an option that you can use and trust as your “go to” for adding a Crowdfunding component on to your website.
Using the Sedra widget
You can add a Crowdfunding campaign to the site of your choice by using the Sedra widget. You can learn more about using the Sedra widget by watching the following video below:

The Sedra widget is a simple way to add a single, or multiple campaigns on to any page of your choice. It runs as an encapsulated UI, so it will not interfere with any other aspects of your website.
Using the Orion Crowdfunding WordPress plugin
If you are already using a WordPress website, you have another option. You can use the Orion WordPress plugin for Crowdfunding. Now you can turn your site into a WordPress Crowdfunding platform. Although it is not a Crowdfunding WordPress theme, you can use and modify the Atlas UI through both the administrator dashboard, and the front end source code to make the UI fluid with your existing theme.

Many of the adjustments can be made through the administrator dashboard. These adjustments include the colour of the buttons, the functionality of the Crowdfunding campaigns, and more. Other more advanced customizations can be made through the front end source code. You can learn how to make these customizations by watching the video below:
