Hi Megha,
This is a great "Save This Post" list for those who are new to Cvent! We are looking to finally start using Studio, so I need to go hunt down some good knowledge base links for Studio!

This is so helpful to have all this info in one spot. I've liked the editing and resending RFPs and will be checking out the adding promotions ariticle.

Thanks for compiling these resources! I also rely on the graphics cheat sheets.

Yes, I was thinking the same thing: "this list needs the graphic cheat sheets!" I reference those constantly! Thanks, Hallie!

I will add one more that I tend to use a lot: 
Flex's Theme Color Defaults

Whenever I am building a new theme, it's a great reminder as to what colors go where.

This is very helpful. I will save this post to share with any new members of the team in the future.  I personally used all the VAH links to help me better understand how it worked when I first starting using Cvent.

For future tips, I'm very interested in anything around hybrid events and making them successful for both in-person and virtual attendees.

Reg types vs admission items - I can never remember these when I'm trying to crank out an event set-up, so I always use this to save myself from having to fix a "whoops" later when something doesn't work.

When should I use registration types vs. admission items?

Megha,

Thank you for the list. I do have a very similar list I send out to new people I onboard to Cvent, but I think mine is a bit out of date so this is very helpful.

Other than the graphic cheat sheets and theme color cheat sheet I also include the Product Learning Centers (as a starting point) and Event professional certifications.
