Setting up a Registration Form on VCP Live
Introduction
The Registration Form for a VCP event is called a Webform. These allow us to gather user information when someone registers for an event. They are used on most events requiring a user to provide their data to register interest and then set them up to access the event when it streams.
Instructions
There are two ways to create a Registration Form (Webform), one is by duplicating an existing one, the other is to use a template.
Create account on Asset TV UK
We have the ability for a user to automatically create an account on the UK site by registering for a VCP event. This is something the user needs to accept before their UK account is created. The checkbox for this feature is only present on a new form so if it is required for an event, please create a new form using a template, unless the form you're duplicating already has it on there.
By Duplicating (Recommended)
- Navigate to the Webforms list by going to
Admin > Structure > Webforms
. - Scroll down to the Webform you want to duplicate.
- Click the operations dropdown and select
Duplicate
. - Modify any of the form fields that you need to make it suitable for your event.
Create Asset TV Account
All templates include a "Create Asset TV Account" check box. When used the system will use the reg form information to create and Asset TV account for the viewer. The region the account is created on is taken from the "Powered By" field on the Region / CPD tab of your VCP record.
From Templates
- Navigate to the Webforms list by selecting
Admin > Structure > Webforms
. - Select the
Templates
tab and clickSelect
on either of the below templates:- VCP Registration - off-white bg - modern styling, for off white background, uses vcp color for button.
