In the traditionsl physical version, envelopes are pre-printed with a unique cash value shown on the front. Usually each value is unique. For example, 100 envelopes could be printed with $1 to $100 incrementally on the front. If all envelopes are used, which is often the case, $5050 is raised in the fundraising event. In some cases, prizes are placed in the envelope including discounts for dining or other vendor contributed offerings. The Envelope Challenge plugin provides a powerful _virtual_ envelope challenge fundraising system which can be seamlessly integrated into your WordPress website. IMPORTANT NOTE: This plugin is a placeholder with limited functionality to test the release and installation process. We are preparing for extensive beta testing and are seeking those with existing WordPress installations that would be suitable for testing prior to production release. Because WordPress installations vary so greatly in thier installation and oprational structure, and because we are seeking to provide excellent quality code when released to production, we wish to obtain as many beta test sites as available. Once you install this plugin, instructions are available in the control panel. NO DATA IS CAPTURED OR SENT TO OUTSIDE SERVERS WHILE USING THIS PLUGIN DURING BETA TESTING. ### Key Features The plugin key features include: * Ability to create a fully custom envelope display page using shortcodes * Ability to create 1, 2, 3, or even 4 categories of donation envelopes * Fully autoated tracking of available envelopes, marking those sold immediately as purchased * Full integration with standard WooCommerce plugin for cart management, purchasing, payment collection, and reporting * (Optionally) Integration with the Mailchimp for WooCommerce plugin for email campaign management with donors Learn more at https://www.envelopefundraiser.com ### Installation Instructions To install, you will first need some other plugins to be installed.

The third party has a lot of experience successfully using an envelope challenge fundraiser in the past, but only in physical form. This virtual implementation builds on decades of success, extended to our new virtual reality.
