This makes it an essential tool for anyone looking to stay informed and engaged with the latest events and webinars. With the directory, you'll have everything you need to make the most of your experience, all in one convenient location.

Access policy

The directory Access policy provides two options that allow you to lock the homepage or other created pages of your directory from public view. The two options are as follows:

Access policy

  • Requires login
  • Page access code
Access policy works independently on the selected directory page. An event organizer can choose to either make some or all of their event directory pages private.
Requires login

If this option is enabled, people accessing your directory page must have previously registered for the event. They will be required to log in before they can access the event directory.

To enable this option, click on Edit at the top right corner of the page and tick the Requires login box on the left panel.

Requires login

Once this option is enabled, people who try to access your directory will be directed to a login page. Once they enter their credentials (username and password), they will be taken to the event directory:

log in page

Page access code

With this feature, event organizers can secure directory pages with a four-digit passcode of their own choice. They can provide this code to individuals whom they want to grant access to the directory.

To activate this feature, click the Edit button located in the top right corner of the page, then enter the code in the Page access code field.

Page access code

Once a code is inserted, the directory becomes automatically locked, and whoever tries to access the page will see the image below asking for a passcode to access the directory:

Type code

If a directory page that is restricted with a login or an access code is linked to a public directory page, attendees will still need to provide their login information or the access code to view the restricted page.
The Access policy options can be combined by turning on the Requires login feature and setting a page access code. This means that when someone tries to visit the directory, they will be prompted to enter the access code before being directed to the login screen to enter their credentials.

This can be used as a two-step verification process, ensuring that the restricted pages are only accessible to those who have the correct login credentials and access code.

Color

You can choose the color of your page by entering the hex code of the color you would like to have. You can ask Google what hex code represents each color. For example, blue is #0000FF.
