Attendees Questions

By adding attendee custom questions to your event registration page, you can collect information from attendees in addition to the standard registration fields.

The standard registration fields are first name, last name, email, phone, guests, and notes. Standard questions cannot be edited, removed, or reordered. You can add attendee custom questions below the standard questions.

For more details about how the public registration form works, see Publishing Events to Your Website.

Question Types You Can Add

For each event, you can add up to ten additional attendee questions. You can leave questions optional, or mark them as mandatory to require an answer before registration can be submitted.

LeadCenter supports question types such as:

• One line
• Multiple lines
• Radio buttons
• Checkboxes
• Dropdown
• Phone number
• Date picker
• Time picker

How to Mark a Question as Mandatory

1. Go to Events and open the event you want to edit.
2. Go to the Attendee Questions tab.
3. Click the edit (pencil) icon next to the question.
4. Check Is it a mandatory field? in the question settings.
5. Click Done to save the question.
6. Save the event form.

Mandatory questions show an (M) indicator in the question list, and the question label displays a red asterisk on the public registration form.

Supported Mandatory Question Types

Mandatory validation is enforced for the following attendee question types on the public registration form:

• Single Checkbox — must be checked before submitting
• Set of Checkboxes — at least one option must be selected
• Set of Radio Buttons — one option must be selected
• Date Picker — a date must be selected
• Time Picker — a time must be selected
• Phone Number — a phone number must be entered

These join the other question types that already supported required validation, such as text, textarea, number, email, URL, and select dropdown fields.

What Happens If a Registrant Skips a Mandatory Question

• The registration form does not submit.
• The first invalid field is scrolled into view automatically.
• The field is highlighted so the registrant can correct it.
• The registrant must complete all required questions before trying again.

Important: This validation applies to the public event registration form only. Manual attendee additions by staff inside the dashboard are not affected.

Locate Attendee Answers

Once an attendee completes their registration, their answers are saved with the attendee record in the Attendees List. You can also review broader attendee registration behavior in Event Registration Workflow and Confirmation Emails.

Tips

Tip: You can change the order of attendee questions by dragging and dropping the reorder icon next to the question.

• Questions that are not marked as mandatory remain fully optional.
• The core registration fields — First Name, Last Name, Email, and Phone — are always required on the public registration form.
