The sign up page has two purposes for any account using the EasyREG registration program. One of these purposes is mandatory one and the other is totally optional. Please read for more details on the signup page and how it is used by EasyREG.
Listing of Registration Events on the Sign Up page The main purpose of the sign up page is a place where all of the events that registrants can register for are listed. This is important because during the registration process registrants are given the opportunity in most cases to "register again" for either the event they are in the middle of registering for or any other event that you might have available. In order to see a listing of all your events, and to choose where they want to register next, they are taken to your sign up page. Therefore, it is required that all events actively accepting registrations are listed on your sign up page (see below for "Adding and Removing Events").
Listing for all your Organizations Events (optional use) As an optional utility, the sign up page allows an easy way for accounts to add and remove event registration forms from their site which they wish to have users use. Designed to the look and feel of your site, the sign up page can be added to your site as a permanent page. You can easily add events too, and remove events from this page with the click of a mouse and without the need for a web designer to edit your current web pages.
Using the Sign Up Page ...
The sign up page is setup from an option listed on your "Account Settings" page. From the main page click on the account settings link and toggle the sign up page functionality to Yes. Save your changes. Once activated you will see an additional column next to each event. This column titled "Signup Page?" holds either a Yes (it is listed on your signup page currently) or No (it is not listed currently). Page view looks something like this:
In this example listing Events 1 & 2 are existing events that are accepting registrations and are listed on your sign up page. Event 3 is new. Event 3 should stay not listed on the signup page until the day that you choose to release it for general registration. On that day the No should be clicked on and toggled to a Yes.
To view your sign up page, click on the "Signup Page"
link at the top of your main page. Please note that this view is
one listing all of the events you have marked as
Yes. Note: During a register again attempt all events marked as Non Registration Event will not be displayed. This is because non registration events are deemed as standalone events and never have the "register again" option displayed during the submission process. If you want an event to have the ability to allow people to perform multiple registrations, never mark them as non registration events.
After setting up your event, creating your registration form, testing your form and setting all payment fees (if applicable) you are ready to start display the form for people to find and begin registering for. On the main admin page you will see a column marked "Sign Up Page" and by each event the word Yes or No. Yes means that the form is now being displayed on the sign up page on your site. No means that it is not yet being displayed. To toggle from Yes to No (or visa versa) simply click on the word. That's it! Each event marked with a Yes is now being displayed on your site. With this simple feature you can easily add and remove events any time that you like with the click of a mouse.
There are three options on how you can display your sign up page to your registrants. In all cases the use of created categories to organize your events are enhanced with these different display options. To view all the display options visit your Account Settings page and look for the Display Options feature. The options are:
