How to Set Up Event Registration Forms
Each event has its own public registration form, designed from the event record rather than from a central forms area.
Opening the Designer
- Go to Event Management > Event List
- Open the event
- Go to its form design page
Notifications
Choose who hears about a registration as it comes in:
- Send Notifications To Event Contact
- Send Notifications To Event Coordinator
- Send Notifications To Main Administrator
Default Form Fields
- Allow Invited Guests: lets a registrant bring named guests
- Allow Purchasers To Add A Donation At Checkout
- Mailing Address
- City, State, Zip
- Phone Numbers
Colors and Description
Choose Form Colors sets the form's colors, and there is a description section for the wording shown to registrants.
Checking and Leaving
Preview opens the form as a registrant sees it. Exit Workspace returns you to the event.
Sharing the Form
The Share The Public Event Form card holds the event's Public Link with a Copy button, plus a QR code available as Download PNG or Download SVG for printed invitations and signage.
Best Practices
- Turn on the donation at checkout for fundraising events. People who are already paying often give more
- Only ask for a mailing address if you are actually going to mail something
- Preview before you send the link anywhere, and open registration well before the event
