    I’m setting up a non-profit that will act as a pass through donation platform for other non-profits. I’m using Give to create multiple forms (100s), so would appreciate any help on importing rather than manually creating forms, but I’m more interested in whether there are any form sliders or a search page by category for forms.

    HI there,

    That sounds like an exciting project!

    The best way to generate multiple forms is to use the Free “Duplicate Post” plugin. It will add a “Clone post” link under each form that allows you to create an exact duplicate. Then you can just edit the form title and move on. There’s only one small catch: If you have existing donations on the form you duplicate, after you duplicate it, go to “Donations > Tools > Data” and run the recalculate all forms tool so that the donation data is cleared from the new forms.

    Regarding displaying multiple forms on one page, a great way to do that is with your theme’s Archive page. Give supports categories and tags, which means it also have archive pages, both for ALL forms (via /donations) and also for each category and/or tag (/donations/category/my-category).

    You can learn more about that in these tutorials:
