The Basic Website editor allows you to edit and customize our pre-built basic page themes. Go to Event Design > Event Website

If it's your first time visiting this menu, you'll be asked to choose a theme from the Basic Templates. If you're on higher plans, you can also choose to start from scratch or choose one of the Advanced Templates.

In this article, we will discuss what can be customized when using the basic website, where you can customize the navigation tabs, choose whether to use the default registration form or use the embedded simple registration (for free tickets), adjust the colors, and show or hide other page components like the organizer's information and social media sharing options.

Basic Event Landing Page Customization

On the right side, you will see a preview of your event landing page that updates while you make changes. Some components in the preview area can be edited directly such as the description, the register now button text and color, tagline, banner and logo.

The Banner Image dimensions are 2000 x 500 pixels. If you don't want to add an image, you can disable it. Instead, the background color will show.

The Logo Image dimensions are 700 x 350 pixels. We suggest using an image with a background color; when the background is transparent (.png), the transparent part will appear black in your confirmation email.

In the Content Editor for the description areas, you can add text, links images videos and more.

The left side menu are for the other items that you can customize.

1. Themes

There are 3 available themes under the basic website,. When using a theme, the layout is fixed, but you can customize the colors, content and more. The most popular one is Theme C.

2. Navigation Tabs

Enable or disable the tabs you want to show on your event landing page. You can also change the tab labels by clicking the edit icon, and rearrange them by dragging the icon before the label. The tabs available will vary depending on the type of event you're having. The function stays the same if you change the tab name.

3. Registration Form

Choose whether to use the New Page Default Registration form (through the register button) or use the Embedded simple registration (for free tickets only).

  • New Page (Default) - Shows a button for registrants to click and will display the registration form on a new page.

  • Embeddable - Shows the registration form on the right side of the event landing page.

Note: Only Free ticket types are available in the Embeddable Form.

5. Show or Hide Other Page Elements

In the Preferences section, you'll see toggles that will allow you to hide or show some elements on the page.

Organizer's Information

Hides or show the More Events and Contact button at the bottom of the event page. There is no option to hide just one of the buttons.

Social Media Buttons

Hide or show all the social media icons in the About tab. If the icon is clicked, it will open a new tab that will redirect to user's social media account, and it will open a dialogue box that will have your event URL so the user can share the event to their social media account. This feature is only for social media sharing; you won't be able to add your organization's social media pages from here.

To ensure the latest information shows in the post, you can debug or scrape the URL's previous content through these links:

Count of People Attending

Hide or show the total number of unique event attendees. This number is displayed above the event name on the event landing page.

6. Virtual Event Hub Disclaimer

Enabling the toggle for Show a Disclaimer Pop-Up before users join the Virtual Event Hub will open a content box where you can draft a waiver/disclaimer and a tick box if you would like to allow users to disagree before entering the virtual event.

7. Event URL

In the settings tab, you'll see your event URL, where you can customize the last part after the e/. Click the copy button to copy your full URL.

8. Custom CSS

Aside from the basic customizations, you can further customize your page by adding Custom CSS

9. Custom JavaScripts

At the bottom of the setting menu, you can add custom scripts that allow you to change or add certain elements to your event page or have it do different actions. This is a great way to further customize your page. The scripts you add in here will work for the landing page and the registration steps.
