Online Registration Forms

Tip: Don't see Online Registration Forms? No need to worry. If all goes well based on feedback and usage, expect its wider release in a future update.

Online registration forms are essential for letting people register for your organization's one time events. These forms are how your constituents will sign themselves and others up for an event, enter their contact information, choose to make an additional donation, and pay their registration fees (for paid events). From an event record, under Online registration forms, you can add a new form, edit an existing form, or review stats of the effectiveness of your existing forms.

Before adding a new form, decide what kind of registrations you'll allow through the form.

  • Is it free to register for this event? Registration forms for free events require you to create at least one price of $0 on the event. For more information, see Online Registration Forms for Free Events

  • Will the registrants need to pay a fee to register for the event? Registration forms for paid events require you to set a fund on the event prior to creating the form. This will make your form ready to accept payments. For more information, see Online Registration Forms for Paid Events

Once your prices and funds are ready, select Add form to start creating your form.

Tip: Ensure that you have an email type, address type, and phone type configured in database view in Tables from Configuration. At this time, online registration forms only support phone types with a Phone number format of <none>.

Before you embed your form on your website, you can preview it in your browser to check the styling and see how it looks to your registrants. From the event record under Online registration forms, select Preview from the form’s menu.

Note: You can't submit registrations or accept payments on a form in preview mode.
