How to create a new event registration form

This guide will show you how to create an event registration form and customise the questions in it.

From the dashboard, click on Communications & Events, select Events, and then Event Forms.

From this area, you may click on Add New format the questions you would like event registrants to complete.

Set the name for your event and add a description if necessary.

In the questions section, you will notice that some questions are pre-set and cannot be deactivated; this is to ensure you always capture the minimum amount of data required should you need to contact a registrant.

Note: With the recent update, hard coding in the Adult/Child question has been removed, enabling toggleable conditions. Now, the fields for Email, Email Confirmation, Phone, and Title will only appear when "Adult" is selected, while the questions for "School Name" and "Is your child currently at school or nursery?" will be displayed only when "Child" is selected.

The Sort Questions button allows you to put the questions into the order you prefer. Simply click on it and drag the questions to where you would like them to appear.

Note: You may also select the percentage of the space they take up in the form.

You are also able to specify which types of contacts see each question, and whether a response is mandatory or not - for example in the Postcode field shown here, the field is visible but not required.

You may create new questions by clicking on New Question. Select the question type and fill out the required fields.

Save your event form once you have completed it. In future, you can create a copy of your template, if you need to make a new one and do not want to start from scratch. Click on Add question to save.

Once you have added your questions and formatted them, you can then return to your events calendar and assign the new template to the event you have created.
