Public Event Registration

People can register for your event using the public registration link. This page explains how the registration process works from the registrant’s perspective. Event administrators share the registration link via:
  • Email
  • Website
  • Social media
  • Direct message
The link looks something like: 
https://church.worshipbuddy.org/event-register/?org=YOUR_ORG_ID&event=EVENT_ID

​

    • Name (first and last)

​
Registration Dates

The registration form respects registration dates set by the event organizer:
  • Before Registration Opens - You’ll see a message indicating when registration opens
  • During Registration Period - You can register normally
  • After Registration Closes - You’ll see a message that registration is closed
Note: If registration has a “soft close” date, you’ll see the deadline on the form, but you may still be able to register until the “hard close” date.

​
Question Types

You may encounter different types of questions:

​

​
Conditional Questions

Some questions may appear based on your previous answers:
  • If you answer “Yes” to one question, additional questions may appear
  • If you answer “No”, those questions may be hidden
  • This helps keep the form relevant and shorter

​
Multiple Registrations

If the event allows multiple registrations:
  • You can register yourself
  • You can register family members or others
  • Each registration is separate
  • You’ll receive a confirmation email for each registration
