Commons. Built to ask for a gift and show where it went.

Navbar 1 with your organization's mark and name at the left, the links beside them, and Give (filled) and Join (outline) always at the right, in the same place on every page. It sits on the page above the content, takes a surface and a hairline once you scroll, and on a phone is your name and a "Menu" button. Footer 7 sits in its own tinted zone with your registered name, your charity or EIN number, your address, a link to the Record and privacy, and the small print, with no call-to-action band above it.

Grove, Civic, Vesper and Rally, all light designs with a derived dark mode built from the closing band's colors. Rally's band stays red in both.

Schibsted Grotesk for headings, the record line and every number, and Inclusive Sans for body text, set larger than usual inside a 600px measure for readers from teenagers to members in their eighties. Headings are sentence case and emphasis comes from weight alone: no italics and no colored words. Big numerals and record numbers use proportional figures, and a column of figures uses even-width ones, so a ledger lines up. Both families ship inside the package under the SIL Open Font License, so the site makes no third-party font request.

The hero with its Running Total, the record in figures, programs, the live-campaign band, updates, events, ways in, what you hold to, people and governance, the Record, the FAQ before the ask, and the closing band. An optional texture, a faint ruled sign-up sheet with row numbers, can sit behind the Ways-in band alone.

One line and a flat bar, in three states: live, partial (no goal, so no bar and no percentage) and none (no figures, so nothing renders and the layout closes up). On a campaign page it grows into the Ledger Strip. The bar fills once and the numerals count up once, never past the real figure; with reduced motion, or without script, the final values are there at load. The figures come from a source your site supplies, because the pack ships none: a function that returns the raised amount, goal, gift count and days left for a campaign. The demo's counts the gifts in its own records, and its code is in the starter to copy. Gifts are kept, not held against a goal. An all-or-nothing pledge drive runs on Tome Crowdfund, which is part of the Commerce plan and isn't in this purchase.

Preset amounts and an "Other" field of equal weight, one-time or monthly, an optional fee-cover box and Stripe's hosted checkout, for a donor with or without an account. The amount and the total are checked on the server against the Price you set (you choose the minimum and maximum; the demo's minimum is $5), and a total that differs from the one the form showed is refused. Nothing is pre-ticked: no amount, no Monthly, no fee cover, and the form's own tests fail the build if one ever is. Fee cover is a plain percentage that you set. A donor who leaves it unticked sees no guilt copy. Monthly donors stop a gift themselves from a "Manage a monthly gift" link to Stripe's customer portal, which your site connects.

Each tier is a card at wallet proportion with the yearly price first, the monthly equivalent, what it covers and what it doesn't. The price printed is the economy Price itself, so the card can't disagree with the charge. The recommended tier has a heavier border all round and a visually hidden "Recommended", never a badge or an accent bar. Joining asks for an account, because a membership belongs to a person; giving never does.

A register of filed documents read from the Organization engine, newest first, with the record number, type, date, file size and a Download button. Public read is off until your site turns it on, and a document needs to be approved and marked public before anyone outside can see it. A file can only be attached to a public document while public read is on. A visitor filter by type and year isn't in this release.

Events are read live from the Organization engine, with spots left calculated from each event's own capacity and attendee count. Programs are entries you write in the page, each with a named lead and the next date.

Join, Give and the thank-you page are single-task flows that keep the brand header and drop the navigation and footer, so a donor isn't offered a way out of the form. Join runs in two steps, with the account first.

These live in the demo's starter, not in the packs: the gift-totals source behind the Running Total, handlers that mark a member active when dues are paid and renewed and mark them as having left when a subscription is canceled or lapses, a US gift receipt (your legal name, EIN, the amount, the date and the line "No goods or services were provided in exchange for this contribution."), and the registration that feeds the Record. UK Gift Aid isn't covered. Check the receipt wording with your accountant before you rely on it.

Commons runs on two Tome engines. Organization holds your members, events, divisions and documents. Economy takes gifts and dues through Stripe. Buying the theme includes both for your first year on one site. After that, the Community plan ($400 a year) keeps Organization's updates coming, and the Commerce plan ($400 a year, set up with us) keeps Economy's. What you've built keeps running either way. The Craft Library and the Solo and Studio plans include the theme and its packs but not the engines; the Agency plan includes both.

Payments go to your own Stripe account, so your organization is the merchant of record and the money never passes through us. Commons doesn't decide what's tax-deductible and doesn't file anything for you: the receipt wording, your registration number and the rules for your country are yours to set.

The demo's volunteer form is built with Tome Forms and posts to Tome Intake, which are part of the CRM & Marketing plan ($400 a year) and aren't included in this purchase.

The rows rise and fade in once as they arrive, the Running Total's bar fills once and its numerals count up once, and the header takes its surface as you scroll while Give and Join never move. Nothing pulses and nothing counts down. With reduced motion turned on, or without script, everything shows its final state at load.
