Add RSVP Occurrences

Let’s look at how to add an occurrence to the RSVP List. You'll need to have at least one occurrence set up for the group before you can start sending your RSVP emails.

  1. Name - You can optionally set a unique name for an occurrence. This applies only to the occurrence being viewed. Invitees will see the name you provide on the external website when they Accept or Decline.
  2. Date - Set the date of the occurrence.
  3. Check-in Schedule - Choose the check-in schedule associated with the occurrence, if applicable.
  4. Location - Select the location of the occurrence.
  5. Show/Hide Additional Fields - Click Show Additional Fields to reveal the settings for custom messages and decline reasons (listed below).
  6. Custom Accept/Decline Messages - You can customize the message invitees see when they respond to your RSVP request. We'll show you what that looks like in the Responding to RSVP Requests section.
  7. Show Decline Reasons - If the Show Decline Reasons box is selected, then invitees can give a reason for declining. You can choose which reasons are available to invitees from the list of Available Decline Reasons.

Tip

Decline Reasons
The list of Available Decline Reasons can be maintained from the Admin Tools > General Settings > Defined Type list under Group RSVP Decline Reason.
