You've configured your Registration basics, configured appearance settings, and added at least one ticket. Before you can configure and use certain features and start registering attendees, you must publish Registration for your Event.
This article shows you how to publish your Registration and gives an overview of what you can do after publishing.
Contents
Publish Registration
From your Event's Registration page, click Tickets, then click Publish. In the modal that appears, click Publish Registration. Yep, it's that easy.
Post-publish menus
Now that registration is activated for your Event, you can access the following menus for deeper registration customization.
Checkout Forms
Checkout forms let you customize what optional or required questions an attendee answers when checking out with a specific ticket. Build a single form for everyone or craft multiple forms tailored to different audiences.
Our Create Checkout Forms and Questions article has complete details about setting up checkout forms.
Promote
The Promote menu contains four options: Widgets, Promo Codes, Emails, and Marketing.
Widgets - Embed a linked button or a ticket widget in an external website. Learn more in our article about using Widgets.
Promo Codes - Use Discount Codes to give discounts or special offers to specific registrants, or use Access Codes to provide access to hidden Ticket options. 🤫 Refer to our Create Registration Promo Codes article to learn more.
Emails - Keeping in contact with your registrants after they sign up is crucial if you need to make any changes to your event, or if you simply want to keep excitement bubbling. Our Create and Send Registration Emails article has more information about how to use Emails.
Marketing - If you've paid for advertising from sites like Facebook or Twitter, and you want to gain insight into ROI, or if you'd simply like to know where people who accessed your Webex Events Registration page or Lead Retrieval Exhibitor Purchase Form clicked from, Urchin Tracking Module (UTM) parameters can help. Learn more in our UTM Parameters article.
Orders
On the Orders page, view order information, resend confirmation emails, refund or cancel orders, and more.
To learn more, refer to our Manage Registration Orders article.
Attendees
The Attendees page lets you view registrant information, add attendees to your Event, and take actions on their profiles. Refer to our Manage Registration Attendees article for more information.
Lite Check In
Lite Check In is a simple tool that lets you easily check attendees in or out of your Event. Check In is only available in a desktop browser and isn't meant for session check in or badge printing.
Refer to Using the Registration Lite Check In Feature for more details.
Instead of Lite Check In, you can use our robust Webex Events Onsite product, which is a combination check in and badge printing app. For an overview of Webex Events Onsite, refer to our Introduction to Webex Events Onsite article.
Settings
The Settings menu contains four options that you should consider before publishing registration links and widgets:
General - Customize button and heading labels and social links and adjust page timeout duration, ticket inventory counts, language settings, and duplicate email policy.
Checkout - Manage custom messaging in automatic registration emails.
Payments - Set your registration terms and conditions. If your registration is paid, set your refund policy and link to Stripe.
Team Notifications - Manage automated email notifications about new orders for select tickets. Decide who on your team should receive these notification emails and how often the emails should be sent.
For more information on all of these settings, refer to our Registration Settings article.
Metrics
This page is technically the first post-publish menu, though it's most useful after attendees start registering, so we saved it for last. 😄 The Metrics page is where you can review and share your registration dashboard and reports. This is the perfect place to go for a quick snapshot of Registration activity or more in-depth analysis using report exports, both during and after your event.
Now that you know all about how to manage Registration, it's a great idea to learn more about Registration metrics.
