Allow RSVP +1s

Collecting Plus One Information in the Custom RSVP Form

To add the custom field option for collecting RSVP plus one information, follow the steps below:

1. You will create a Custom RSVP form to collect additional information. Navigate to the custom RSVP form tab on the left-hand navigation bar (https://dashboard.addevent.com/forms/rsvp).

   

2. Select the RSVP form you would like to customize. The Standard RSVP form is read-only. You need to create a new RSVP form to customize it or edit an existing custom RSVP form.

3. Click the + sign to add a question to the form.

4. From the dropdown, select the field type you prefer to get plus one information. You could use the multiple option choices, text, or number.

5. In the blank field text box, enter the text that will be displayed on your RSVP form.

   1. Example: "Please share the number of attendees."

      

6. Once you create your form with your desired customization, click Save form.

7. To apply the custom RSVP form to the event, navigate back to your event page. Edit the event to get to the RSVP Settings section and apply the form by selecting it from the dropdown.

   

Here's how it could look on your RSVP event landing page:

Please note that collecting additional attendee information from RSVP form submissions does not include the additional attendance in the seat limit count, or include the +1 as an additional RSVP.

In other words, each form submission, regardless of any +1's included, counts as one RSVP/registered attendee.

However, by allowing RSVP +1's, you can still collect information from your registrants to allow them to share that they intend to bring an additional guest. You can calculate the total attendees by reviewing the attendee list and/or by downloading the attendee list to review the attendee records.
