How to Register a Non-Member to an Event

This article will guide you through registering a non-member to an event.

1. To register non-members into events, the event configuration must be set up to allow for this scenario.  The first part of this article deals with modifying the event configuration to allow for this if it hasn’t been already turned on.
2. The only way to register a non-member into an event is to step through the registration process on their behalf.  If you already have the link to the event registration, you can skip this article and proceed to the link and complete the registration.
3. This registration method will not provide an opportunity to pay for the ticket. You must create a ticket type accessible to non-members, which costs $0; if you wish to charge for this ticket, you must create an invoice outside of this process.

Accessing Event

1. From the Admin Dashboard, click 'Events' in the main menu. Find the event by typing its name into the search bar or finding it in the list, then selecting its name or the pencil icon next to it.

2. This will brings you to the Events Management page. Find the event you want to edit by typing its name into the search bar or finding it in the list, and then selecting its name or the pencil icon next to it.
