Hi, @therez.
Glad you reached out.
Currently it isn’t possible to have the form defaulted to the custom amount option. Based on our research, it’s better to offer donors a few donation options to choose from in addition to allowing them to type in their own custom amount.
You could use the multi-level donation option for just one donation amount, with the custom amount enabled, to create something like this: https://livedemo.givewp.com/donations/test-form/
If you’re looking to customize our donation form templates, our developer docs might come in handy: https://givewp.com/documentation/developers/.
We are working on some new form templates for the future of GiveWP, which will make it easier to customize our forms. I added you as a voter for this feature here: https://feedback.givewp.com/feature-requests/p/allow-custom-amount-to-be-the-default-on-forms.
We are actively tracking user feedback to understand further the needs you all have. You can use the link to check in for updates or to provide additional details of your own. I would encourage you to comment on that post about the impact this would have on your organization. Information like that is always helpful for our teams to see. I’ve also linked your ticket internally, so if this feature request is developed, we can reach out to update you.
Give the post above a look, and let me know if there are any additional details you would like me to add. I want to ensure your need is as accurately reflected as possible, and I’m happy to include an internal note to our teams with any specific information you would like them to have.
