How to open and close registration
Set the days registration opens and closes in your event's Registration Settings, and close it early when you need to.
Registration is open from its opening date through its closing date. There’s no separate switch: setting the dates is what opens registration, and moving the closing date is what closes it early.
Before you start
- You need to manage the event.
- People can only reach your registration page once the event is published. See how to publish your event and choose its public pages.
Steps
-
In your event’s planner, the sidebar shows under the event’s name whether registration is open. Click Registration closed to open the registration settings. Registration Settings at the bottom of the sidebar opens them too.
-
On the General tab, pick the Registration opening date. Registration opens at the start of that day, in the event’s time zone, so pick today to open it now.
-
Pick the Registration closing date. Registration stays open through the end of that day, which can’t be later than the event’s last day. Without a closing date, it stays open through the event’s first day.
-
Click Save All Settings Changes.
-
The sidebar now shows Registration open, and people can register from your event’s page.
Close registration early
Open the registration settings, set the Registration closing date to an earlier day on the General tab, and click Save All Settings Changes. Registration stays open through the end of the day you pick, so pick yesterday to close it right away. Teams that already registered keep their place.
