This video provides a comprehensive explanation of the Leaderboard Portlet Extension Pack available through Bonterra's CyberGrants platform. The extension enhances user engagement by displaying top-performing individuals or teams based on either total dollars donated or hours volunteered. The leaderboard can be configured in vertical or horizontal orientations with customizable titles, prominently featuring the top three performers while also showing the donor's personal ranking alongside those immediately above and below them. For team leaderboards, amounts appear as percentages toward annual team goals, which administrators can set through the platform's interface.
The implementation process requires administrators to make several key decisions regarding the configuration of their leaderboard. These include choosing between individual or team displays, determining whether to track monetary values or volunteer hours, selecting which proposal types to include in calculations, and deciding on the time period to measure (fiscal year or custom dates for individual leaderboards). The extension adheres to specific display rules - team leaderboards only appear when there are logged hours or dollars in the current fiscal year, while individual leaderboards require activity within the past three fiscal years.
Administrators interested in implementing this extension should be prepared to discuss their specific requirements when meeting with their Business Analyst during the implementation phase. The process includes comprehensive User Acceptance Testing (UAT), and no functionality will be deployed to the production environment without full client approval. It's important to note that any changes to the functionality after production implementation or modifications to requirements during development may result in additional costs and timeline adjustments. If you are interested in adding this extension pack to your CyberGrants implementation or have any further questions after viewing this video, please contact your assigned Project Manager.
