Component body

The Event Manager module provides event registration capabilities for five different types of events.

Setup events in which web site visitors register to:

  1. Participate in a particular role or job
  2. Participate during specified time slot
  3. Participate in a particular role and time slot
  4. Provide an item or food needed for the event
  5. Simply participate

Key features:

  • Flexible Registration Scenarios
    Choice of five registration scenarios, listed above.
  • Online Registration and Cancellation
    Self-service features enable individuals to register, cancel, and confirm their participation at any time – all online. Individuals can also update their contact information, select a different time to volunteer or participate, and change their role for the event (if applicable) without assistance.
  • Confirmation
    Event-specific confirmation pages can be displayed when participants successfully register for an event or cancel their registration. In addition, participants receive personalized email messages when they register or cancel their registration.
  • Privacy
    When registering for an event, participants receive a confirmation code that serves as a password for changing or cancelling their registration. Participants who forget or lose their confirmation code can have it emailed to them using an online form.
  • Usability
    Event Manager features are designed for ease of use. Registration forms are simple and clean. Separate mini-pages provide easy and clear access to commonly used functions. A prominent “Register for Event” button (optional) draws immediate attention to the registration function and encourages site visitors to click-through.
  • Event Registration Open/Close Dates
    Administrators can manage events more effectively by setting a time period for participants to register. At the end of the registration period, access to the registration feature is closed automatically.
  • Registration Report
    An online report provides up-to-the-minute registration information for each event. The report lists participants, their roles, participation time and other event-relevant information. Quick links to each participant's registration page make it easy for administrators to make any necessary changes.
