New Releases of 3 of the Nonprofit Starter Pack packages

Please find below a message we received from Steve Anderson (Salesforce Foundation) – good job Steve!

I’m happy to announce new releases of 3 of the Nonprofit Starter Pack packages—Contacts and Organizations, Households, and Recurring Donations.

I recommend installing these packages as they each include bug fixes.

They also include some nice new features:

  • Upgrading is easier
  • Replaced S-Controls in favor of VisualForce
  • Automatic Household Contact roles on Opportunities
  • Campaigns in Recurring Donations
  • Better handling of translations
