Use the Exhibitor section of Attendease to display exhibitors at your conference, trade show, or convention with ease.  Access our support site and learn how to add exhibitor levels and profiles. For an extra speedy setup, you can import multiple exhibitors at once.

You are now able to automatically hide the “Register” button on the Event Information block when event registration is unavailable. If you enable this feature the button will automatically be removed after your event is over or if event registration is manually disabled.

Were your fingers getting tired of scrolling to see all the cards in the Card Row block editor? Ours were – so we’re introducing a card selector! To edit a particular card, just select its corresponding number from the card selector at the top of the editing dialog.

According to Forbes, event planners are ranked #5 as one of the most stressful jobs. We feel your pain! To help make things easier, the Attendease team has set an important goal – to constantly innovate in order to provide the very best experience for event planners. Recently we received recognition, ranking in the Top 20 Most User-Friendly Event Management Software Solutions out of 400 competitors.

Today, we took one step closer to hitting that goal. 

We are delighted to introduce a design refresh of the Attendease interface. The new look and feel was created to make the event management experience even more seamless. The first phase of our design refresh is underway and our users can start exploring Attendease to see ongoing design improvements.

Here is a new feature to make your returning attendees happy: Instant Registration.

The name of the feature speaks for itself. Returning event registrants can be fully registered with just one click without entering their information again (note: this is possible if it is a free event!)

We are pleased to introduce two new platform features that will help you improve pre-event attendee experience and convert and delight your prospects: conditional fields and Grouse Theme, another stunning event website template. In addition, we launched three powerful integrations with Slack, Hubspot and Salesforce.

Conditional fields are a powerful marketing tool for improving your registrant’s form submission experience. No more inflexible form fields that are not personalized or tailored to the needs of each attendee. Now you have the ability to build dynamic registration forms that use conditional logic. Choose whether a question is visible or hidden, based on a registrant’s selections in previous fields.

For example, you can ask attendees if they have any dietary requirements. If the answer is YES, they will see additional questions that will give you better understanding of their specific food requirements. If they answer “NO”, they will automatically be sent to the next question without specifying food preferences.

We’ve added one more stunning new theme to our library! Our Grouse Theme includes modern, easily-customized website themes for your events. Grouse has universal site structure that could work perfectly for a business conference, an internal event, or a webinar. And, of course, you can fully customize it so it has your brand’s look and feel. Save time and resources by using beautiful templates from our library.

*Grouse Theme availability depends on the subscription plan, please contact [email protected] for details.

We are very excited to announce the new features of the EventUp Planner (formerly Attendease platform) that will help you create memorable events for your attendees.  So, what’s new in July:

This long-awaited platform feature will allow a single person to register multiple attendees for an event, each with individual personal details, during the same registration occurrence and payment instance. It’s a perfect solution for corporate attendees that come to your event as a group or want to pay from a business account. Multiple attendee registration is a huge time-saver and a very useful feature that helps to improve the event registration experience for your attendees.

According to the latest Nielsen research, 64% of marketers expect video to dominate their strategies in the near future. Our latest event website innovation lets you leverage the power of video marketing without any technical difficulties. Easily embed a video into the hero block of the website with the click of a button.

BOOK A DEMO

Today we are thrilled to announce a bunch of new features and enhancements that will provide you with greater flexibility to develop, manage, and execute your event management strategy using the Attendease platform. The best part? You don’t have to wait – they’re available today.

 All of your events – all in one place

Organizations that manage multiple events may wish to feature them in a central listing. We call this an event portal. Now Premium and Enterprise customers will be able to launch a microsite that can include unlimited event listings. Each listing can be featured on an individual page and can be configured to display only certain events (based on meta information). Lists can also be segmented and ordered according to your requirements. The event portal microsite can be customized and managed using Attendease’s new drag-and-drop, wysiwyg content management system.

Support for multiple languages

We are also launching support for organizations with multiple languages. Now Premium and Enterprise customers are able to build a set of translations that can be used across all your events and event portals. Translations are added to a central repository where they can be edited and added to over time. When translation strings are added to a website template, new events that use the template can be configured to display in the language selected during event creation.

Like it? Duplicate it!

Since launching our new content management system, users have requested the ability to duplicate pages – and we listened! Now pages can be duplicated, saving you valuable time during event site setup. If you’ve created a page layout that will be replicated, simply duplicate the page to maintain design consistency and save time.

Single Sign On (SSO)

Now Premium and Enterprise customers can enable support for single sign on, or SSO, which allows your attendees to sign up once and save time when registering for future events. If your events use global registration fields you can set them up to prefill if a user has already filled in that question for a previous event.

No payment? No check out required

When we first launched our new content management system, a check out screen was required for all events. Users requested that this step should be removed for free events – again we listened! Now events that do not require payments will not require the registrant to confirm on the checkout screen.

We have also made a number of small enhancements and fixes to improve the user experience of Attendease. Here are some of them:

– Show loading message when event listing block loads

– Fix rendering of pages when there is no trailing slash in the URL.

– Fix the missing “Save Site Template” section for Organization Owners.

– Fix mobile styles for the registration block to add padding on mobile.

– Fix the save button feedback for saving templates on BUs

– Fix file upload (rivets issue)

– Fix the saving of the registration form when the checkout screen is skipped for free events

– Fix spacing on nested views for presenters, sessions and venues

– Fix to shorten text on the password reset screen so the button displays more nicely

– Fix to make sure default toggle values are reflected in block preferences

– Update label text on requires_account registration option to reflect more accurate functionality

– Fix “null” values appearing on global fields when there is a blank value

– Fix issue that was displaying an error when surveys were filled in without all their required fields

– Fix an issue where the ical calendar file for multi-session was displaying duplicate location information in the description

– Fix the event listing display in the admin dashboard for long event names

– Fix the page editor so you don’t need to reload the page when switching between pages

– Fix spacing above Watch Now button in the Event Info block

– Remove the automatic lowercasing of field labels in the form builder

– Fix the broken display of BU hierarchy

– Fix spontaneous re-ordering of site manager pages.

– Fix display of blocks in IE11

– Fix erroneous promo code logic when entering an invalid code

– Remove the session count on the tabs of the Schedule Block
