Registration Form Settings

When using the registration form you can collect important data from the attendees enrolled in the event.

This article intends to explain what each tool of the registration form setting does and how they will, individually or grouped, affect the form. Based on your event's need you can adjust it accordingly.

How can I edit my registration form settings?
