Disable RSVPs

This help doc explains how to disable RSVPs for an event. By default, an RSVP event remains open for registration until one of the following occurs: (1) the seat limit is reached, (2) you set the event to "inactive," or (3) you choose a specific time to stop accepting RSVPs. Follow the steps below to disable RSVPs based on your preferences.

Disable RSVP responses

To disable RSVPs for your event, follow these steps:

  1. Go to your Event page for the event you’re managing.
  2. Scroll down to the RSVP and settings section.
  3. Open the Settings tab.
  4. Choose from the two available options to stop collecting registrations:

Option 1: Deactivate RSVPs At Any Time

To turn off RSVPs immediately:

  • Check the inactive box to stop accepting new RSVPs.
  • You can also customize a message that will display on the event landing page for anyone who attempts to RSVP after deactivation.

Option 2: Set a Last Chance to RSVP

To stop RSVPs a set time before your event:

  • Click the dropdown menu and select a timeframe between 0 minutes and 14 days before the event’s start time. This will automatically close RSVPs, allowing you to prepare with an accurate attendee count.

If you need to set a limit on the number of attendees, see here for instructions on adding a seat limit to your event..

These options give you control over when your event stops accepting RSVPs, helping to manage registrations and keep attendees informed. Scheduling for disabling RSVPs at the event start time also ensures that your end-users will not be able to register for events in the past.
