The Form Builder

The Form Builder is the heart of registration. Its tabs walk you through the form in the same order your attendees experience it.

The Form Builder Registrant Types tab: each type shows a classification pill - Standard, Guest, or Exhibitor

Registrant types

Registrant types now have their own page: Registrant Types, just above the Form Builder in the menu. That is where you add a type, set its classification, and price it. See Registrant Types and Price Tiers.

The Form Builder is where you decide what each of those types actually sees. Its tabs walk the form in the order your attendees meet it: Form Items, Form Fields, Deals, Rules.

Form items and form fields

The Form Items tab decides what each type can buy, organized under group headings you name yourself, in the order you want it presented. The Form Fields tab does the same for questions. Both work from the libraries, so one item or question can serve many types and many events.

One link sets everything per type

Every row on the form board, whether it is an item, a session or a question, shows its registrant types as plain chips and carries one By Registrant Type link. That link opens the same modal everywhere, and it is the only place these settings live.

The By Registrant Type modal for an item: a checkbox per registrant type, a Required box and a price for each
  • For an item: which types may select it, whether each of them must, and each type's price. Leave a price at the library's standard to use it.
  • For a session: which types may select it, and the price for each.
  • For a question: which types are asked it, and whether it is required for each.
  • On the board itself, a starred chip means required for that type and a bold price means that type pays a different price.

Questions you fill in yourself

A question can be marked Internal use in the field editor. The public form never asks it: it appears as a box on the registrant's own record for your team to fill in. The ordinary type chips still decide whose records carry it, so a note you only keep on VIPs stays off everyone else.

Deals and rules

  • Deals holds coupon codes, buy-this-get-that offers, scheduled price increases, and Group Registration & Discounts.
  • Rules connects answers to items: an answer can reveal or hide an item, so the form reacts to each person as they fill it in.

Group Registration has its own On and Off switch. Off means one registration per checkout: nobody can add colleagues to their own order. Turning it off leaves your discount tiers exactly as you built them, sitting there disabled, so switching back on costs you nothing.
