Creating and managing custom fields in the guest list


Creating and managing custom fields

You can add a number of custom fields to an event’s guest list. These fields can be integrated into the registration forms or used internally to divide guests into categories.
  • Click on the  "Custom fields" symbol under > Guests.
  • You will now be shown a list of all of the custom fields that have already been created for this event.



    1. It is also possible to create custom fields straight in a form. These custom fields will also be shown in this list.
    2. To add a new custom field, simply enter the required field name in the “Name” field.
    3. Next, select the field type:
      1. Text (short or long)
      2. Choice (single or multiple): Enter the choices available for selection.
      3. Checkbox
      4. Upload file: used primarily on forms on the event website.
    4. You can also specify criteria for the data entered in this custom field, e.g. that the value entered has to correspond to the format for an email address.
    5. Save your custom field. To create another custom field, repeat the process.
      To edit an existing field, click on the edit symbol: Changes to the field name will not be reflected on the form. Any field names entered at this point will only be used as the column headers on guest data pages and in export files.

      To delete an existing field, click on the delete symbol : If this field already contains guest-related data, this will be indicated next to the   symbol.

      Custom master data fields can only be created at the event or account level. Custom master data fields will be shown on every guest data page for all events.
