This article is only for those who have used the Classic theme and have active Classic Crowdfunding and Peer to Peer Fundraising Campaigns, which sunsets in March 2023.
You have a Crowdfunding and Peer to Peer Fundraising campaign that has been or needs to transition to the newer theme from the Classic Theme. There are plenty of new features to take advantage of, but most of the design and functionality will carry over to the modern theme. This article will guide you through what has changed and where to learn more.
Summary / Quick Checks
None of the functionality has changed, it may just have moved to a new section within the design. So your goals and text is still there and still working as it should.
The quick things you will want to check when your campaign is moved to the newer theme:
- Make sure your Brand Logo is still useful or if you might need to alter it, because of its new placement.
- Make sure your Background Image is visible the way you want it. since the Fundraising page is now wider than before
- Upload your Celebrity Photo to the Media Carousel and/or add images and videos to the Media.

Fundraising Page
Choose a Theme Section
This section will be completely removed. The versatility of the newer theme will allow you to personalize your Fundraising Page in many ways without needing the option of different themes.
Logo & Branding Section
The Logo & Branding section is almost the same. You may need to adjust your images and add some personalization:
![]() | ![]() |
Brand Logo: In the newer design, your brand logo appears in the banner of the page, so your color choices may hide it and it may be smaller than on the Classic theme. You also may want to consider swapping it for an image with a transparent background.
Background Image: There's more on the newer Fundraising Page, so less room to show off your background image. Depending on what your image looks like, you may want to change it to fit the newer Fundraising page.
Card Styles: In the newer design, there is an added component for Fundraiser Card Styles, so you can include different styles that appear on the Fundraising page to showcase your Volunteer Fundraisers.
Banner Section
Nothing changes in the Banner section.

- Donors: This is now edited in the Tabs Section.
- Donate Button: This has moved into the Buttons section.
