In [Paymattic](/) the **Donation Progress Item**is an essential feature for creating a **Donation Form** to add a list of items with a fixed price with a progress bar. This article will guide you on how to add the Donation Progress Item to the WordPress Site through Paymattic.

**Donation Progress Item** is a free feature except for the **Recurring Amount**and **Custom Amount** option and to use these two options in your field, you need [**Paymattic Pro Plugin**](/docs/how-to-install-and-activate-paymattic-in-wordpress/#1-toc-title)**.**

## Adding Donation Progress Item Field #

To learn how to add the Donation Progress Item to the Paymattic Donation Form on your WordPress site, follow the steps with the screenshots below –

First, go to the **All Forms**section from the **Pymattic Navbar,**choosea**Form,**and click the **Pencil/Edit** icon to open the **Editor** page of that form.

If you do not have any existing forms, read this [Create a Form from Scratch](/docs/how-to-create-a-form-from-scratch-with-paymattic/) or [Create a Form using Templates](/docs/simple-form-templates/) documentation to create one.

For example, I choose an existing form to show the whole process.

Once you open the **Editor** page, add the Donation Progress Item fields by typing the**“ / ”**or clicking the **Plus Icon** placed at the bottom.

**Remember**, we always suggest you keep the [Name](/docs/how-to-use-general-form-input-fields-in-wordpress-with-paymattic/#5-toc-title) and [Email](/docs/how-to-use-general-form-input-fields-in-wordpress-with-paymattic/#6-toc-title) field at the beginning of any Form.
