Registering for an event

Explanation of event registration.

Individual events can be flagged as allowing registration. When this is done, users viewing the event details on your web site will be presented with an event registration form. The form allows them to enter their first and last name, e-mail address, phone number, number of people attending, and any additional comments they may have.

Registrations are collected and become manageable within LiveWhale. For information on how to manage event registrations, please see “Managing event registrations”.

To flag an event as having registrations, click the “Events” tab from the LiveWhale interface. (If the Events tab does not appear, the administrator has not assigned the events module to you.)

From either the month view or list view, click the title of the event you wish to add registrations to.

From the event edit screen, scroll to the section labeled “Registration” and check the box labeled “Allow site visitors to register for this event”.

If you wish the registration to automatically close after a specific number of attendees have registered, enter the number in the field provided.

If you wish to specify additional requests to users registering for the event, use the text field provided to do so. At the time of registration, users will be given a text field with which to respond to those requests.

Click “Save this event”.
