Registrations for the Events Calendar – Event Registration Plugin

Registrations for the Events Calendar – Event Registration Plugin

Description

Whether you’re holding a meetup, class, workshop, tournament, or any other kind of event, you need a way to handle registration. Our plugin makes managing event registration easy and simple. Even nontechnical users can set up the plugin and start collecting registrations within minutes. Create a simple RSVP registration form or a more complex form with custom fields. All registrations are recorded in your database for easy event management. Customize confirmation and notification emails to keep your attendees, as well as your event managers, informed.

Parent Plugin

In order for the Registrations for the Events Calendar to work properly, you need to install its parent plugin, The Events Calendar. (Both are free.)

Quick to Set Up and Easy to Get Started

As soon as you install and activate the plugin, you can begin collecting event registrations on the single event page for all of your events. You can also customize the placement of the form on the single event page or on any other page using a shortcode or the block editor.

Uses

The plugin can be used for more than event registration. Here are other things the plugin is currently being used for.

  • RSVP for meetings
  • Class registration or simple class management
  • Sports club registration
  • Venue booking
  • Webinar sign-ups
  • Private instructor booking
  • Virtual events
  • Pickleball tournament registration

User-Friendly Features

  • Reduce incomplete event registrations by limiting the entire process to a single page (AJAX form submit).
  • Keep your event page uncluttered (your event registration form is hidden initially and revealed by clicking a customizable “Register” button).
  • Follow-up with your attendees with a customizable confirmation email.
  • Save entries in a database table for easy event registration management.
  • Attendees can unregister (cancel registration) using a link sent in an email.

Highly Customizable

  • Add as many text fields as you’d like to the event registration form.
  • Add the event registration form to one of several parts of the page your event is displayed on.
  • Choose how the form displays. Reveal on click, pop-up modal window, or displayed fully.
  • Display the event registration form anywhere on your site with shortcodes or our event registration Gutenberg block.
  • Customize the labels, error messages, directions for your attendees, and which fields are required.
  • Customize both the email templates sent to your attendees and the notification email sent to the event manager.
  • Limit the number of registrations per event.
  • Make event registration for logged-in users only.
  • Display a list of current registered attendees.
  • Specify a registration deadline (both date and time).

Powerful Backend Features for Easy Event Management

  • Registrations are saved in the WordPress database, where you can manually add, edit, and delete them.
  • Email addresses can be checked for duplicates (this prevents duplicate registrations).
  • Get notifications when new registrations need to be reviewed.
  • View a breakdown of registrations by event, and browse them quickly in an overview.
  • Export your event registrations to a CSV spreadsheet.
  • Search event registrations by name, phone, or email.
  • Integrates with WPML (WordPress Multi-language) for multi-language events.

Tools for GDPR Compliance

  • View a breakdown of the tools with screenshots here
  • Search for event registrations filtered by email address.
  • Export all collected data attached to an email address whether connected to a user or not.
  • Delete individual event registrations or permanently delete all data attached to an email address.
  • Require attendees to agree to terms and conditions before registering. Include a link to a terms and conditions page.

Benefits

  • Simple workflow frees up your time.
  • Customizations allow you to add a personal touch.
  • Optional display of a registered attendee list builds community.
  • Straightforward event registration process provides a world-class user experience.

FAQ

Can I limit the number of registrations for an event?

Yes. You can set up the maximum number of registrations on the “Form” tab or set this for each event individually.

Can I add more fields to the form?

Yes. There is a button to add custom text input fields on the “Form” tab.

I’m not receiving a notification email or attendees are not receiving a confirmation email

Take a look at our FAQ on troubleshooting this issue as well as instructions for installing an SMTP plugin.

How do I disable registrations for a specific event?

By default, registrations are enabled for every event. You can disable registrations for a specific event by checking the appropriate box on the “Edit Event” page or on the “Registrations” tab “Overview” page. You can also disable registrations by default by checking the checkbox on the “Form” tab.

Can I set a deadline for when registrations are accepted?

You can configure an offset for how long registrations will be available relative to the event start time or set a specific deadline for each event.

Can I edit registrations and export them for an event for event management purposes?

Yes. Click on the button “Detailed View” for the event in which you’d like to edit or export event registrations for.

Can I display a list of event attendees on the front-end?

Yes. There is an option on the “Form” tab to display a list of event attendees above the registration form. A guest’s first and last name will only appear after you have had a chance to review it in the backend of the site.

Can I display the event registration form on another page or post?

Yes. You would need to use the post ID for that event in the shortcode. Example: [rtec-registration-form event=743]

The form is not hidden initially. Why is that?

It’s likely that you have a javascript error somewhere on that page. Try disabling other plugins or switching themes to see if this corrects the issue.

Is this plugin compatible with WordPress multisite?

Yes. There is a custom database table added to each sub-site’s database to separate registrations.

What do I do if I have a request or need help?

Go to the “Support” tab on the plugin’s settings page and follow the link to our support page, setup instructions page, or feature request page.

This plugin has proven to be a joy to work with; the free version meets our needs beautifully. The one small additional feature that we asked for was added within a week or two of our request.

Really awesome plugin, just does what it should and more – and the support is very helpful!Only enhancement i’d like to see is more automation options with other plugins – i.e. CRM Plugins.But in itself works like a charm!

I’ve used Registrations for the Events Calendar for several years in a website for a chess camp. RoundupWP always provides timely, above-and-beyond support for any issues that arise.
January 16, 2024
The Registrations for the Events Calendar Pro plugin is absolutely great. It has helped solved multiple issues for us. We have a free course that we are offering 25 times this year, and this has helped us organize the registration process in a seamless way. We had a couple of requests for functions that weren’t part of the plugin, and the customer support department responded and added the functions for us in a few weeks. I give them an A+ for an excellent plugin and friendly, fast, and responsive tech support. Keep up the good work!
November 25, 2023
I have had this need for a very long time to be able to manage registrations in the Events Calendar plugin, which is one of the most popular on WordPress sites. The author has thought of everything, it’s very intuitive, and above all, the support is incredible because they take the time to help you integrate it and even understand our personal issues. Don’t hesitate, it’s great.
