Customize Your Registration Form

On Livestorm, you can customize your registration form to make sure you are getting the right data on your registrants upfront. 

We already have 14 default fields to help you get started, but you can create any custom attribute you need and manage them directly in your workspace.

2

Click on the field you want to add. You can also search for a field via the search bar.

Reorder & Delete Fields or Consents on Your Registration Form

To reorder the fields or the consents of your registration form, just grab the left border of your fields and rearrange at will.

To delete fields from your registration form, just click on the - at the right corner of the fields.

As a result of the GDPR, which went into effect on May 25, 2018, anyone who wants to register for an event must agree to our  Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions on the registration page. The 'Livestorm terms and private policy' field can not be deleted.

Create Custom Fields or Consents in Your Workspace

If you'd like to customize your registration form, even more, you can create your own custom attributes. You can do it either from your event registration settings or from the People attributes page. Both methods will direct you to your Account setting > People attributes.

Custom attributes are created on your workspace. You can then add them to each of the registration forms of your events.

Like the answer to the default mandatory field (email), the answers to the custom fields are grouped and associated with each of your registrants on the People page. 

If a registrant answered the same field on different registration forms with different answers, the last answer of your registrant will be displayed on the People page.

1

To create a custom attribute in your workspace from your event registration settings:

• Go to your Event Settings > Registration
• Click on + add a field or on + add a consent
• Scroll down and click on Manage custom attributes

To create custom attributes in your workspace from your People attributes page:

• Go to your Account Settings > People Attributes
• Click on + new custom attribute

2

Name your custom attribute and edit the slug if necessary.

You will still be able to edit the name after. Note that it is possible to have several custom attributes with the same name.

The slug is unique for each custom attribute and you won't be able to edit the slug once you've created your custom attribute.

3

Enter a description (optional).

4

Select the attribute type: text, consent, or multiple choice.

• Text: your registrants will be able to submit any answer they want.
• Consent: your custom consent attribute will be added after the mandatory consent 'Livestorm terms and privacy policy'.
• Multiple choice: you can either collect one answer or allow multiple answers.

5

Check on the preview if it looks fine and click on Create once you're done.

6

Your new custom attribute is added to the People attributes page and can now be used on your registration forms. 🎉

Edit & Delete Custom Fields or Consents in Your Workspace

You can edit or delete custom fields in your workspace directly from the People attributes page.

When you edit or delete custom fields or consents, the modification/deletion will be applied to all the registration forms of your events where those fields or consents were added.

Multiple choice fields and slugs can not be edited.

• To edit custom fields or consents in your workspace:

1

Go to your Account Settings > People Attributes.

3

Click on Delete at the bottom of the side pane.

Make Fields or Consents Required on Your Registration Form

Your visitors will have to fill out that field to complete their registration.

Email is the only mandatory field by default for technical reasons. We need this field to complete any registration. 

Livestorm Tip 👉To allow your attendees to register faster, for example, for small internal meetings, don't require their first and last names. Attendees without first and last names will then show up in the room as "Anonymous user 1", "Anonymous user 2", etc... As a Team Member, you'll still be able to see their email address in the room and in your People dashboard.

To make a field or consent required:

1

Go to your Event Settings > Registration 

2

Check the box on the 'Required' column next to it.

Allow Only Work Emails to Register to Your Event

You can choose to accept only work emails for your registrations, meaning that people with a Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, etc. email address won't be able to register.

1

Go to your Event Settings > Registration > Advanced settings (at the bottom of the page).

2

Check the box 'Only allow registration for people with a work email address'.
