Givewp: design(admin-report): gather examples of useful reports

[DevinWalker]

Issue Overview

The reports for Give can be improved greatly. They can display information more intuitively and have a better user experience overall. The code for the current reports is also difficult to read and understand.

Nice Report Examples

Baremetrics - I really like how they display graphs overviews that you can then click into:

Check it out: https://demo.baremetrics.com/stats/

Stripe - These graphs are very simple to understand. You can't drill down into the reports like baremetrics, though. I believe it would best to try something like this as an MVP that we can then iterate upon to have more data points.

Codepen 1 Really nice animations.

HelloSales Better WooCommerce reporting by iThemes:

Note: The "Donors" report as it stands now is basically a less data-rich "report" than our donor's list view:

We should probably just remove this until we can get around to the revamp since it's just taking up unnecessary space.

We should include a way to view stats/reports on recurring Donations. Should be able to see the total income made out of recurring donations.

Google Analytics - I thought this was a clever way to show multiple sources contributing to a total while staying within a similar color palette. Consider this chart using Give green instead of blue.

One possibility would be Donations Per Day where each bar represents the total donations for that day broken down by donation size:

• < $10
• $10-$100
• $100-$500
• > $500

I think we've gathered enough reports to warrant closing this issue.
