Title: Custom Goal Format Last modified: October 13, 2022 --- # Custom Goal Format * Resolved [stephp7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stephp7/) * (@stephp7) * [3 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-goal-format/) * I want to create custom goal format. Rather than dollars raised or percentage of dollars raised, I need to track the quantity of product sold (eg. meal boxes). How can I insert custom code to calculate the total amount raised divided by the cost of one box? I also have Ultimeter installed to handle displaying this information so what I need to know is how to add it into GiveWP for tracking purposes. Thanks!

It can certainly be done using some custom code, but we do not have a handy code snippet that we could share with you. * Although we do not have this feature out of the box, it would be interesting and valuable for us to understand how it would work for you and how it would improve your workflow, so the product development team has some insights about how it would behave. * Also, is there any workaround that you are using? It would be good to hear from you about that too, and what this feature would allow you to do. All ideas are appreciated, and I’m happy to share your insights with the product development team so that they can discuss the feasibility of this feature. * I hope it clarifies and looking forward to hearing back from you! * I’ve also created the feature request here and added you as a voter for it [https://feedback.givewp.com/feature-requests/p/custom-goals](https://feedback.givewp.com/feature-requests/p/custom-goals). * ​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 back out to update you. * Give the post above a look, and let me know if there are any additional details you would like for 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. * Thanks for using GiveWP! Have a great day. * Thread Starter [stephp7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stephp7/) * (@stephp7) * [3 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-goal-format/#post-16122851) * Hi, thanks for your response! I appreciate you taking this into consideration. I am going to work with my team’s contracted developers to see if they can figure out a workaround. We’re coming from TeamRaiser which had these features built in, but was extremely complicated to customize the appearance for each campaign, which us non-developers need to be able to do day-to-day. This is why we love the idea of Give! * We are a fundraising organization that offers environmental services as the “ product” being sold in lieu of the usual fundraisers that sell chocolate bars or the like. Therefore, we have multiple Give forms at once for the different participating schools. All donations are two-part — a percentage goes directly toward the fundraising initiative (usually a school fundraiser), and the remainder goes towards the chosen service. So, in order to keep the momentum for the fundraiser going, we want to display custom metrics to track the environmental service they’re funding in addition to the funds raised for their initiative. * The Ultimeter custom units feature is close to what we are looking for, but we need a way to have the Ultimeter update automatically from active Give forms, and ideally be able to track that custom metric in the GiveWP donations section of the backend. I love that Ultimeter has a GiveWP integration, and I am going to see if my team can utilize this to somehow connect the two. Basically, the ability to input a basic custom equation & text for the goal format: * total donation – $ or % [amount going directly towards the fundraising campaign] = X number of trees planted * And then additionally, the ability to track a segment of $ earned (to display only the amount of funds going to the initiative rather than all funds, as they will reach their goal before they actually have if we just show total donations): * total donation – $ or % [amount going towards environmental service] = funds raised for their initiative * I’ll respond here if we figure out a workaround in the meantime. Thanks again! * [Matheus Martins](https://wordpress.org/support/users/matheusfd/) * (@matheusfd) * [3 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-goal-format/#post-16152237) * Hi, [@stephp7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stephp7/). * Thank you for sharing your insights.
