  • 1.  Making event and registrations live

    Posted 12-13-2023 16:29

    I have built the registration in my event and would like to make it live.   I have validated the website and would like to test the registration live to ensure that everything is working properly.

    Hi Jessica!

    On the right side of the home screen, there is a section titled "Feature Status" which shows the status of your website and registration. Use the dropdown arrow to change the status:

    Keep in mind, once you go live, it's final. You cannot return the site to test mode. You can test the registration completely while it's in pending status (click the 'Actions' button at the upper right of the screen, then 'Perform Test'), so I recommending doing that to make sure everything is the way you want it before going live.
    Hope that helps! :)

    Hi Tori,

    This definitely helped thank you.  My follow up question now - Since this is the main portal for the entire Manager training program for Buffalo Wild Wings, we will have changes that will need to be updated within the registration.  Such as new sports bars for the managers signing the registrants up for.  There will be other details that will need to be updates by the period as well.  Once I go live, will I still be able to adjust information within the registration? If not, how do I go about this as it is paramount to our needs.

    Hi Jessica,

    Yes, you can make changes to a live site if necessary. I would approach this with the mindset of "adding to" is okay (adding the sports bars, adding questions, sessions, etc). I try to avoid "subtracting from" - when you start removing things from a live site you might run into issues, especially with your reporting or an element that might be connected to something else that affects how the site runs.
