Some edits can be made once the event has gone live.

Note: It isn't possible to change the Event Type one the event has been created. Please take a look at our Event Types article to be sure you're creating the correct event.

Click below to jump to:


Changing the design of your event

To change the design of your event navigate to the Enthuse Event Platform and login.

Click Manage events > Event list and click on the event you wish to edit.


Click on Event setup > Styling.

Here you can Edit theme where you'll have options for your colour scheme, a background image, some custom css, and advanced javascript.

When you are done click Update


Banner Image

The dimensions for this image should be 733x260px and it must be under 1MB.

Add Pre Text

Pre text is text which appears above the registration options and below the event banner image. It can be treated as an ‘About’ section, a space for you to provide any further details about the event.

Add Post Text

Post text is text which appears below the registration options.

Add Sponsor Logo
Click Choose File to select an image from your computer. The image must be smaller than 1MB.
Enter a title for the image in the Title field.
Add a link to the sponsor’s website in the Link field.

Note: You can add multiple sponsors to an event, so be sure to upload them in order of seniority.

Click Continue.


Changing Event Dates

To change the dates of your event navigate to the Enthuse Event Platform and login.
Click Manage events > Event list and click on the event you wish to edit.

Click on Event setup > Event details


Update the Start and End date


Click Save

You will also need to update the event dates under -

Event setup > Events & fees


Edit

Update the Start and End date

Click Save

This event date will now pull through to the main event page and registration page.

If you have set up a virtual event type, you will only be able to add activity to the page during the event date period.


Updating the dates on Entry Fees

All events require at least one entry fee/ ticket option so that participants can register for your event. The dates added to the entry fee will determine when the ticket is open or closed to participants. This feature is often used with early bird tickets so that this ticket opens first before the rest of the standard entry fees.

To edit the entry fee dates navigate to the Enthuse Event Platform and login.

Click Manage events > Event list and click on the event you wish to edit.


Click on Event setup > Events and fees.

You can tell if your entry fees are open or closed as it will display on the entry fee window in this section.

To update the dates -

Click Edit on the entry fee you wish to change

Navigate to the "Availability" tab

Update the Start sales on and End sales on date

Update the Available from and Available to time

Click Save

Your entry fee dates have been changed.


Hiding an event or an entry fee from public view

Hiding an event from public view means that the whole event is hidden so no one can access it. It is a bit like the event being closed.


To hide an event or entry free from public view navigate to the Enthuse Event Platform and login.
Click Manage events > Event list and click on the event you wish to edit.

Click on Event setup > Events and fees.

Click Edit under your Event Name (top left)

Select Visibility and change to Hidden (see screenshot below)

Click Save

Hiding an entry fee from public view means that the ticket/entry fee option is only visible by supporters who have been sent the invite link. E.g. saving hidden discounted tickets for charity users and their families. To do that, follow these steps:

  • Click Settings

  • Events & fees

  • Click Edit (on the entry fee)

  • Click Visibility and change to Hidden

This will then generate a 'registration link' on the entry fee which can be shared with supporters. The entry fee will not be visible from the main event page.


Adding a sponsor logo/ an extra logo onto your registration form

Adding in a sponsor logo is a great way to showcase your sponsors on your registration form. Instead of adding in a sponsor logo, you can utilise this option as another way of placing your logo/company branding on your registration form.

To edit the sponsor navigate to the Enthuse Event Platform and login.

Click Manage events > Event list and click on the event you wish to add the sponsor to.


Click on Event setup > Styling.

Scroll the the bottom and click "Add sponsor logo"

  • Upload an image saved from your computer; this needs to be 'gif', 'png', 'jpg' or jpeg' and have a file size of 1MB or less.

  • Enter the title in the ‘Title’ box.

  • Enter a link to the website

  • Click on ‘Save’.

Your sponsor/company logo will now appear at the bottom of your registration form

If you wish to add in more than one sponsor/additional logo, follow the same process once again.
