Scheduling & Events
How To Create An Event
STEP 1
Create the event in the scheduling tab.
scheduling > appointment types > new type of group class.
(If you are creating an event with multiple ticket tiers, create a category, and then create multiple classes under that category. See video below)
Don’t forget to select the mailing list opt in form on the right side and the additional child information form if applicable.
Offer the class on the date that you’d like.
To add the option for add ons:
scheduling > appointment types > add-ons > select the add on option you would like to add > check off your event
If you are hosting the event in a location other than 2505 Worthington St, be sure to link the correct email confirmation + reminder (see video below)
STEP 2
Add sponsorship opportunities by creating the donation campaign in Donorbox (optional)
Decide if you want to use an open ended donation box, or offer specific sponsorship tiers.
For specific tiers, duplicate the “Tanya Class Sponsorships” campaign, edit the amounts and the “after message”.
For an open ended general sponsorship campaign, embed the General Event Sponsorships campaign.
STEP 3
Create the event page
pages > event templates > duplicate a similar style event page
Edit the header, title, photo (toggle the fit/fill to fill the image box) and description.
Link the correct class (or category of classes if you’re offering multiple ticket tiers)
Embed the correct Donorbox campaign if applicable
STEP 4
Edit the page settings of the event page
Click on the gear button on the right of the event page title
Edit the title, url slug (choose something short and memorable), SEO title and description, and the social image.
Check and adjust the mobile version to make sure everything is in order
STEP 5
Publish and link the event on the website
Add the event to the events & programs page either by replacing an old event, or by duplicating an existing section and replacing the event details with the new event.
Link the new event url to the button
Add the event to the Home Page if you want to feature it there as well.

How To Connect a Form to Flodesk

Be sure to create separate text fields for first and last name (and not to use the default name field)

Duplicate an existing form that connects a Squarespace form to Flodesk
Rename the form, update the trigger by searching for the new form, test the trigger, confirm the flodesk connection, and publish the zap.
