Create a New Event

admin
  1. Go to Edit > Events…
  2. Click on the “Create New Event” tab.
  3. This will create a brand new event with the default settings. This event will be blank and require heavy editing before the public can register.
  4. You can always duplicate an event to save time. This will quickly create an exact copy of the select event and the below table can be quickly edited with the new events information.
  5. Every new event require these specific fields to be supplied before the launch:
    Required Fields
    Event Name The name of the event you give for yourself to find it quickly within the event lists. Try to be specific with accurate names and dates.
    Event’s Matrix Display Name The matrix contains the necessary HTML code to generate the event information that the client will see when choosing which event to register for. Please contact the e-Registernow staff if you have any questions about this field.
    Event Date and Time Set the date & time that the event will start and end at. 
    Event Enabled? Ensure that the event is enabled.
    Event Order Number Give the event an order number that will specify where it will appear on the registration list with “1” being at the top of the list .
    Registration Period Set the date that registration will open to the public and what day it will close. These dates are inclusive, so once midnight of the set date is reached the event will open/close respectively.
    Registration Form Set the registration form that this specific event will use. You will need to create a registration form.
    Total / Maximum Enrolment Set the maximum amount of people that are allowed to sign up for this event.
    Event Cost (including taxes) Set the price of the event in either CAD or USD – cannot be both. If free, set price to 0.00. This is the final price that the registrant will pay, including taxes.
    Applicable Taxes If the event does have a tax, please see creating a tax and select the tax you created from the drop down menu.
    Send registrant standard confirmation e-mail upon registration? Once a registrant signs up, it is always a good idea to send a confirmation email that contains the receipt and any e-tickets if applicable. Select “Yes” to this question for a default confirmation email layout to be sent out.
    Event Visible on Step 1 For: Ensure this switch is set to “everyone” so all registrants can see this event. Selecting cashier hides the event from all but those who have access to the back-end of e-Registernow.
    Step 1 Selector Choose what type of selector this event should use. This controls whether a specific quantity of the event can be purchased, can choose more than one event per registration, or demand a single choice.
    Display Event on Step 1 Event Matrix? One of the most important steps. Select “Yes” to ensure that the system puts the event on the Step 1 page. Also ensure that the “Step 1 Event Matrix Enabled?” is set to “Yes”, found under Preferences (Step 1) .
