Change name of a custom field 

Renaming your own registration field is easy to do, but think beforehand so that you do not change the name of the field to something completely different from what it was called from the beginning if it is the case that already booked participants filled in the field based on the original name.

To change the name of a custom field

  1. Log on as admin for your event 
  2. In the Home-view, click on Create/edit element 
  3. Click on the tab Custom fields 
  4. Click on the Settings wheel to the right of the field you want to change. If it is a list choice you want to change, you have to click on the arrow to the left of the name to open up the list choices. Here you will find the Settings wheel for the list choices. 
  5. In the Name field, make you change 
  6. Click Save
  7. The change will be visible directly in your registration. Read more about how to preview your registration here. 

Change name of a standard field 

To change the name of a standard field is not the same procedure as for a custom field. To change the name you have to use the function Word for web, it can be found under the flex setting for the category. In word for web you can search for the name of the field and give it a new name, exception is Company which can be renamed by going to Settings in the left menu - Texts for the web - Company. Read more about word for web here. 
Think about whether it might actually be better to create a custom field than to rename an existing one.
In reports, name changes made in Word for web do not take effect and the fields will have their original name there.

Change type of a registration field

Unfortunately, it is not possible to change the type of registration field you selected when you created the field.
You can delete the field and create a new one.
If bookings have already been filled in the field, the field cannot be deleted, so you must first delete either the selection from all bookings made or delete the bookings. Another alternative is that for new bookings you hide the field in the registration.

Add a list choice 

If you have a list type field, you can add additional list choices to your list.
The list choice is "connected" and becomes visible in the registration immediately after you have added a new list choice.

To add additional list choice:

  1. Log on as admin for your event 
  2. In the Home-view, click on Create/edit element 
  3. Click on the tab Custom fields
  4. At the fields that are of the List type, there is a small arrow to the left that you click on to fold down the view with the list selections
  5. Click on the green button Add list choice 
  6. In the name field you write the name of the new list choice
  7. Click on Add 
  8. Your new list choice has now been added and are visible in your registration!
