Widget Sizes ​

Widgets have predefined sizes that determine how much horizontal space they occupy:

  • Small - 1/4 of the row (good for metrics)
  • Medium - 1/2 of the row (good for charts)
  • Large - Full row width (good for tables)

Widgets automatically wrap to new rows based on their combined widths.

Widget Categories ​

Widgets are organized by what they measure:

  • Revenue - Donation amounts, payment methods, refunds
  • Contacts - Donor counts, new vs returning, geography
  • Campaigns - Site performance, page activity
  • Engagement - Email opens, page views, interactions

Widget Scoping ​

Widgets are scoped to specific dashboard sections. When you click Add Widget, you only see widgets relevant to that section:

DashboardAvailable Widgets
CRM InsightsContact, household, and organization widgets
Revenue InsightsRevenue, donation, and payment widgets
Manage InsightsCampaign, site, and fundraising page widgets

You cannot add a widget from one section to a dashboard in another section. For example, campaign-specific widgets only appear in Manage Insights, not in CRM Insights.
