If you’d like to disable registrations for all of your existing events and manually enable them instead, enable the option to do so in the WordPress Dashboard, navigate to Events -> Registrations and then select the Form tab.

5. To configure form fields, registration limits (can be set for each event), messaging on the form, and more you would need to go to the WordPress dashboard, navigate to Form Settings page or select the Form tab from the Registrations page.

7. On the “Email” tab, you can edit the subject, from address, messaging and more for the confirmation emails sent to registrants and notification emails sent to the addresses of your choosing.

8. Once you’ve began collecting registrations, use our handy dashboard tools to manage them. To view all submitted data from registrants, download a .csv file for an event, and to add, edit, or remove registrations manually, navigate to the “Registrations” tab and click the “Detailed View” button for an event.

You’re all set! You can continue to add more events and tweak registration settings as needed.

We suggest setting up an SMTP service for best results with email sending. Read more about that here.
