Create the registration page for your event
After you have created your event, you can begin to create your registration page.

Create your event registration page and event website in just a few clicks. Your event website can consist of up to 5 different pages which you can easily set up. In this article, we will talk about the creation of your registration page.

On the registration page, you create the form, which your invitees must fill in. On the left, you get a preview of what it will look like for the guests and on the right, you have the editor in which you can write your copy and set the parameters.
- At the top, you can change the language by using the language drop-down. Don't forget to do this and translate your text if you are communicating in multiple languages.
- In "Page Design", you decide which design elements to show and how the page will be orientated.
- In the "Registration page text" section, you can add additional text to make it appear on the registration page. The title of the page changes the label in the tab on the registration page.
- With the "Registration page fields", you build your fully personalized registration form.
(Click on the following link to go to this separate article for more details: “Registration page questions"). - In “Timing and settings” you determine when the registration form is accessible and the number of guests that can subscribe per invitation.
- For the closing date, you can choose to set a fixed end date by selecting a date in the calendar or you can define that the registration closes a specific number of days before the event start date. Especially when you have a multi-venue or multi-date event, the setting “days before start event” is very useful. This way, you can close the registration x days before each venue, so you still have enough time to order catering, etc.
- "Default guests per invitation" defines the total number of people that can register per invitation/registration. For example: if this number is 2 and I get an invitation I can register myself and one extra guest. In some cases, it just doesn't matter with how many your invitees can register: they can come by themselves or they could join with their entire team. In that case, simply select “Unlimited”.
- With "Maximum guest per invitation" you define the maximum flexibility for example ticketholders could have. If for instance the default guest per invitation is set to 2 and the maximum guest per invitation is set to 4, a ticketholder could make an exception for certain invitees, so they can register with 4 in total. As a standard put the same number in maximum as in default – unless you want to allow this flexibility. In the latter case put a higher number than the default.
Tip:
If you set the registration open from the present day, you can immediately test for yourself how this registration page will look after the event has been published. You will be able to click on the chain icon to go to your registration page:
