Priority rules for multiple Elements

Elements covered by priority rules

The priority model applies to these Elements:

• Popup
• Message Bar
• Reminder
• Social Proof
• Floating Button
• Sticky Button

If several Elements of the same type are eligible to appear, Fundraise Up displays the Element that was edited most recently.

Priority hierarchy

When different Element types conflict, Fundraise Up applies this priority order:

1. Popup: Prevents new Elements from appearing until the Popup closes.
2. Message Bar: Moves other Elements to avoid overlap.
3. Reminder and Social Proof: Temporarily hide fixed buttons when they overlap. Reminder has priority over Social Proof.
4. Floating Button and Sticky Button: Display unless a higher-priority Element overlaps them. Floating Button has priority over Sticky Button.

On mobile devices, Elements positioned at the same edge of the screen are treated as overlapping because screen space is limited.

Schedule Elements

For Message Bar and Popup Elements, use the scheduling options in the Behavior section:

• Show from date: The Element starts displaying at midnight in your organization’s time zone.
• Hide after date: The Element stops displaying at 11:59 PM in your organization’s time zone.

Scheduling controls when an Element is eligible to appear. During that period, the Element still follows the priority rules.

Scheduling options for Message Bar and Popup Elements

Reduce conflicts between Elements

You can use Element settings to reduce how often conflicts occur.

Use different display locations

Place Elements in different screen positions using their Appearance settings. For example, place a Sticky Button at the bottom left and a Message Bar at the top.

Schedule supported Elements

Use Show from date and Hide after date to limit when a Message Bar or Popup can appear.

Configure page visibility

Use URL control and Visibility to control which pages display Overlay Elements and Sticky Buttons. For example, show Social Proof only on selected landing pages or hide Reminder on pages with other floating widgets.

Use built-in priority

If eligible Elements still overlap, Fundraise Up automatically applies the priority rules described above.
