Engagement Plugins

Engagement plugins allow clients to generate javascript bootstrap code to embed a Sign a Petition, Advocate Notes, Register to Vote, Share your Story, Make a Call, Act on a Regulation, and Write a Letter Engagements directly into a website (examples: their main website or a partner’s website) allowing advocates to take action without leaving the page.

Start by visiting the Portable Pages admin page and clicking the “Create Plugin” button.

After you have selected “Engagement” you’ll be prompted to name your plugin (this name is for internal use only and will not be visible to the public) and select the Engagement you would like to feature in the plugin.  Click “Submit” to continue.

On the “Create Plugin” page you will be able to update the name and description of the plugin.  Click the “Intro Panel” check box to reveal the options to include the Headline and/or Intro Text associated with the Engagement.  You can also adjust the colors of the plugin background, border, font, and link/button color on this page.  When you are ready to create your code, click the “Save” button.

You will then be returned to the plugins landing page to copy your code snippet to plug into the page where you want it to appear. If you would like to make edits to an existing plugin open the detail panel and click the edit button. You will not need to update the code snippet after making changes.
