Modifying Event Settings under Event Options
Overview
The Event Options page (Plan > Configure > Options) allows configuring Event settings and turning Modules on or off for each Event.
The majority of the Settings have been configured in Templates and on Account Settings because the Settings are based on the services you have purchased.
There are a few Settings and Modules that you may modify specifically for your Event, such as Automatic Event Waitlisting, Custom Registration Properties, and Functional Areas.
Automatic Event Waitlisting
- Automatic Event Waitlisting is enabled to automatically process waitlisted registrations for the Event.
- If you set an Event Registration Capacity, Registrants can be automatically waitlisted for the Event once it is full.
- If spaces become available, waitlisted Registrants are then registered automatically.
- Enabling Automatic Event Waitlisting allows Certain to automatically process waitlisted Registrations for your Event.
Custom Registration Properties
- Custom Registration Properties are flags (Yes or No values) that enable you to track whether or not particular actions have been performed on a Registration.
- These Custom Registration Properties are displayed in the Registration Information section at the bottom of each Attendee's Profile page.
- Example: Some Registrants may need a visa letter to attend your Event.
- You can create a Custom Registration Property labeled "Visa Letter Sent".
- Once you have sent the visa letter, select the "Visa Letter Sent" checkbox on the Attendee's Profile Page.
- Default for Custom Registration Properties is unchecked.
