Creating a New Event

Overview

Create a New Event

You can add a new event by going to the Events > Managed page.

Click on the green New button at the top which will open up this pop up:

Here you can provide the event name and title as well as set an organizer and provide access to the users.

The difference between event name and title is that the name is used to identify the event internally in the system whereas the title is displayed to the attendees.

You can select the organizer from the existing ones in the system, or can press + icon to add a new organizer and assign it to the event.

Note: The organizer field is a required field.

Once you click Save, you will be taken to the Event Designer page from where you can add/edit all events’ data.

Event Designer has the following sections:

  • Basic Info

  • Schedule

  • Details

  • Tickets

  • Sessions

  • Activities and Add-ons

  • Packages

  • Codes

  • Settings

  • Publish

Basic Info

Here you can add/edit the event’s name and title, select type, category and sub category, organizer and add tags to improve the event’s discoverability.

You can also select location type:

  • Venue - means physical location, which uses Google Places to find the matching locations.

  • Online - means the event is online and doesn’t have physical location.

  • To Be Announced - means the location is yet to be decided and announced.

You can also determine the date and time of the location to either single or recurring.

Note: You have the option to display the event's start and end times. This can be done by selecting the 'Show start time' and 'Show end time' checkboxes located beneath the start and end date fields. Alternatively, if you prefer not to display the start or end time, simply leave the corresponding checkbox unmarked.

Single event means it happens only once with specific from and to dates like in the screenshot below:

Recurring event means it will be repeated and so you need to specify all the dates of the event from the ‘Schedule’ tab:

And this is the Schedule tab where you can add these dates:

Selecting ‘New Date’ opens this dialog to add new date for the event:

Back to the ‘Basic Info’ tab, you can also add social networks links for the event as shown here:

Please note that any changes in any tab switch the bottom buttons to: Reset, Save and Save & Next. So you can either reset any changes taken in this tab, save them or save and go to the next tab, respectively.

Details

From here you can add the event’s cover image, which will be used as the main event image in both the web portal and the mobile app. You can also add description, images, videos and text details. 

Here is how you can add/edit media inside ‘About Event’ section:

Press ‘Select’ to show dialog from where you can select image from media manager:

This is how the image and text sections look like:

Tickets

From this section, you can create new tickets for the event, edit and clone them.

Creating a Ticket

To create a ticket, click on the ‘Add New Ticket’ button and enter the ticket details.

The required fields of the ticket are:

  • Ticket name

  • Type: Paid or Free

  • Quantity type:

    • Fixed: Establishes a predetermined quantity of tickets available for sale.

    • Group inventory: Establishes a unified total quantity across different ticket types, where the purchase of any ticket affects the overall availability, regardless of the specific ticket type bought.

  • Visibility:

    • Visible: always shown. If the ticket is unavailable, it will appear grayed out.

    • Visible Only When on Sale: if the ticket is unavailable, it will be hidden in the ticket menu.

  • If paid, the price. There is an option to enable the original price if there is a discount on the ticket price. Checking absorb fees option means that the price includes the fees and unchecking it means the fees will be added to the price. For example, if the ticket price is $50 and fees is $1, if ‘Absorb Fees’ is checked, the ticket price remains $50 and the $1 fees will be deducted from it. But if the ‘Absorb Fees’ is unchecked, the $1 is added to the $50 and the final ticket price becomes $51.

  • Registration info section: contains registration info fields, such as QR code, ticket name, and registration code.

Adding Custom Fields to the Badges

More Elements

This section contains additional elements such as:

  • Border Box

  • Horizontal Line

  • Vertical Line

  • Image

Badge Designer Settings

The badge designer settings tab allows you to adjust the name and size of the badge by specifying its width and height or choose a predefined badge size. Additionally, you can toggle the grid setting to show or hide grid lines on the badge and toggle the top-notch setting to display or hide the top notches for the badge hanger.

Customizing Elements

You have the flexibility to insert elements to the badge, clone, delete or adjust the element’s position.

You can manage typography settings, including renaming the element’s ‘Value' in case of an inserted text field, choosing a font family, adjusting sizes and weights of elements, changing the element’s position, and aligning the element’s position using the default alignment positions.

Overflow: Determines how the text is displayed within an element of specified width. There are two settings:

  1. Text Wrap: For lengthy texts, text wrap maintains the specified font size while starting a new line to continue the text.

  2. Text Autofit: For lengthy texts, text autofit automatically reduces the specified font size to fit the text within the designated width of the element. A minimum font size can be set to ensure readability. If the text still exceeds the width, a new line will start with the remaining text.

There are two default position alignments:

  1. Horizontal alignment - Align the text horizontally in three positions: left, middle, and right.

  2. Vertical alignment - Align the text vertically in three positions: top, middle, and bottom.

The Border box, Vertical line, and horizontal Line elements can be displayed as either Solid or Dashed lines.

To assign a specific email address for sending the ‘Registration Email’ for all tickets of a particular event, navigate to the ‘Settings’ tab of the 'Event Designer' and enter the desired email addresses in both the ‘Sender Email’ and 'Reply to Email’ fields.

For instance, 'VIP' tickets are meant to be sent from a specific staff member’s email address, such as ‘arevans@captello.com’, while all other tickets for the event are intended to be sent from ‘marketing@captello.com’.

The ‘VIP’ ticket will have the 'Sender Email' and 'Reply to Email' linked specifically to the 'VIP' ticket as shown:

Advanced Settings

You can customize both the online and onsite (EventGen mobile app) registration forms. You can ask any number of questions and map them to the Prospect Profile.

ULC Forms as a Registration form

The ULC Form can be used as a registration form in the Event Directory. A template is created from the Registration Forms tab. Then the template is then chosen while creating or editing the ticket.

To create a ULC template, navigate to Events > Managed > Registration forms, click New, enter the information of the template, and then click Continue

While creating a ticket or editing an existing one, scroll down to Forms, choose Advanced from the Form Type dropdown, choose the template from the Online registration form dropdown or the Mobile app registration form dropdown, and then click Save.

Ticket Design

You can edit the ticket’s background image by uploading a ticket template. The system will fill in attendee information and the attendee’s QR code in the gray rectangle shown above. To create a ticket background image, click Download Empty Template or download the files below to edit. The template is available in JPG, PNG, or PSD, but must be uploaded in JPG or PNG.

For the extra-addon ticket, it is almost the same as the standard ticket except that:

  • It doesn’t have prospect info - since all extra tickets are accessible only for already registered attendees.

  • The activity/add-on field is required since it is an extra ticket created to give access to activities and/or add-ons.

Clone, Edit, Delete, or Archive a Ticket

To clone, edit, or archive a ticket, press the three dots on the right side of the ticket card.

  • Edit: allows for the modification of the chosen ticket.

  • Clone: clones the ticket data so you can change it to create a new ticket using data from another existing one.

  • Archive: blocks the possibility of buying tickets, both online and on-site.

  • Delete: deletes the ticket solely in the case where it has not been purchased.

Group Inventory

A Group Inventory allows you to link different types of tickets together with a total shared quantity.

For example, if you have standard, free, and VIP tickets in a group inventory with 5 tickets total, registrants can buy any combination of these ticket types until all 5 tickets are sold.

The key point is the total number of tickets bought. So, they could buy 3 standard and 2 VIP tickets, or all 5 could be standard tickets. Once all 5 tickets are sold, no more are available, no matter the combination.

Create a Group Inventory

To create a group inventory, go to the Group inventory tab, click on Add New Group Inventory, choose a name and quantity, and then click Add.

Assigning Tickets to a Group Inventory

To assign a ticket to a group inventory while creating a ticket or editing one, click on Quantity Type. Choose a group inventory from the dropdown menu or create a new group inventory by clicking on the '+' icon.

There is an option to edit the name or quantity of the chosen group inventory by clicking on the Edit icon.

The available quantity of tickets can be displayed or kept hidden.

  • Add-ons - things like beverages and parking etc.

Actions that can be taken on the activities are check-in/out, for instance checking in the standard event tickets. You can also undo the check-in/out action. However, the add-ons can be redeemed and un-redeemed.

To create new activity, click the ‘New Activity’ button on the right side and fill in the info for the activity:

The following information is required:

  • Activity name

  • Start and End dates

  • Category of the activity

The other optional fields are:

  • Full Address

Checking the ‘Add Ticket’ option means that a ticket will be linked with this activity. This means that the attendee can’t access this activity without purchasing the ticket.

You can enter the following ticket information in the ticket section:

  • Paid/Free: whether the ticket will be free or not

  • Quantity available initially. 0 means no tickets.

  • The price - checking the absorb fees option means that the price includes the fees and unchecking it means the fees will be added to the price. For example, if the ticket price is $50 and fees is $1, if ‘Absorb Fees’ is checked, the ticket price remains $50 and the $1 fees will be deducted from it. But if the ‘Absorb Fees’ is unchecked, the $1 is added to the $50 and the final ticket price becomes $51.

  • The minimum and maximum activity tickets allowed to be purchased per order.

  • When the activity sales will end, i.e. 2 days before event end time.
