    Can I use Wild Apricot with my existing website?

    You can use Wild Apricot in a variety of ways:

    1. As your main website - All-in-one turnkey solution with content management, membership management and event registration tools, online donation form, email blasts etc.
    2. As a secondary / purpose-built website - Keep your existing website and then use Wild Apricot website for seminar or conference registration, as online member self-service portal etc.
    3. With your existing website - use Wild Apricot administration backend to setup specific functions and embed them into your existing website using Wild Apricot widgets.

    "Website Widgets" is the name we've given to the Web plug-ins that give you the ability to integrate Wild Apricot's functions within your existing website - easily, affordably, and seamlessly. These plug-ins are designed to help associations, clubs, churches and non-profit organizations automate their administrative functions and add interactivity to their website.

    Essentially, the Widget plug-in is a portable chunk of interactive functionality that can be installed and run within any web page. It allows your website visitors to join your organization, pay dues, donate, update contact details and register for events online at any time - they will even receive automatic notices to free up your scarce time.

    And because you can tweak your Widgets to use colors and styles to match your existing website, Wild Apricot becomes an invisible provider of interactive functionality for your website - without your website visitors having to leave your main website.

    By simply cutting and pasting some HTML code into your webpages you can create:

    • Online member application form - displays a form to collect information and process online payment.
    • Searchable member directory - displays your member directory according to the settings you specify in your Wild Apricot database.
    • Secure member profile - provide online self-service for members to see their membership profile, handle membership renewals, upgrade notifications, and payment options.
    • Event calendar - lists and links to event pages for events in your database.
    • Event registration form - provides information on the event, as well as registration and payment options.
    • Online donation form - make it easy for people to donate.
