How to set up your first Registration Form

The Registration Form feature in Cadence allows you to collect specific information from attendees during the registration process. Through the Registration Menu › Form section, you can enable registration forms, create custom questions, and determine what information attendees must provide before completing their registration.

When to use

  • When setting up a new event's registration process
  • When you need to collect specific information from attendees
  • When customizing which fields are required for event registration
  • When creating event-specific registration questions

Before you start

You must have System Administrator or Event Manager permissions to modify registration settings.

How to do it

    Log in to your Cadence Admin account.
    Navigate to your event dashboard.
    Click on "People" in the left sidebar menu.
    Select "Registration" from the submenu that appears.
If you don't see the Registration option, you may need to enable it first in your event settings.
    Click on the "Form" tab at the top of the page.
    Toggle "Enable Registration Form" to turn on the registration form feature.
Disabling this setting will remove the registration form from your event's registration process.
    Click the "+" button to add a new question to your registration form.
    Select the question type from the dropdown menu (Short Text, Long Text, Multiple Choice, etc.).
    Enter your question text in the "Question" field.
    Check the "Mark question as required" box if attendees must answer this question.
Required questions are marked with an asterisk (*) on the registration form.
    Configure any additional options specific to your question type.
    Click "Save" to add the question to your form.
    Review your complete registration form to ensure all necessary questions are included.
    Click "Save" at the bottom of the page to apply all your changes.

Troubleshooting

If attendees report issues with the registration form:
  • Verify that all required fields are properly configured
  • Ensure question types match the expected input format
  • Check that conditional logic questions have valid paths for all possible answers
