The Private Event Feature
This feature allows you to restrict access to your event page by requiring a password. When this feature is enabled, your event URL will be unlisted from our event listing page and unsearchable.
When an event is marked as private, it becomes undiscoverable to the public across all areas of the platform. This includes the Accelevents event listing page, the event listing page for Enterprise or White Label plans, and the Organizer’s public event page. Additionally, private events are unsearchable, meaning they will instruct search engines not to index them, so the event will not appear in any search engine results.
Set Up a Private Event
To set this up, go to Event Details in your admin console, then enable "This is a Private Event." Create a password (minimum of 4 characters), then click Save.
When someone tries to access your event page through a browser for the first time, they will be asked to enter the password before proceeding to the event page.
Notes:
When this setting is enabled, and your event publish settings are set to "public," your event will still be private and won't be added to our event listing page.
As an event admin, you won’t see the password prompt in your regular browser. Use an incognito window to test the attendee experience.
This feature is also available for fundraising events.
