Who can see and register
Three separate settings decide this. Published or Draft decides whether the link works, Visibility whether your calendar lists it, and Who can register who can buy.
On this page
Whether someone can find your event and whether they can buy a ticket are separate questions, with separate settings. Hiding an event from your calendar doesn't lock it, and making it invite-only doesn't hide it.
The three settings
| Setting | Values | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Published, Draft | The status button beside Edit event |
| Visibility | Visible on calendar, Hidden from calendar, and Visible to members on a members-only event | Edit event → Status, or Hide from calendar on the event's Settings page |
| Who can register | Anyone, Invite only, Members | Edit event → Status, or the event's Settings page |
A draft overrides the other two: only your team can see it, whatever they say.
Every combination, once published
| Anyone | Invite only | Members | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visible on calendar | Listed. Anyone with the link registers. | Listed. Guests enter a host's access code at checkout. | Listed and marked Members only. Signed-in members of the allowed tiers register. |
| Hidden from calendar | Off the calendar. Anyone with the link registers. | Off the calendar. Guests need an access code. | Off the calendar. Members of the allowed tiers register. |
| Visible to members | Not offered | Not offered | Listed only for signed-in members whose tier can register. |
Invite only
Guests enter a host's access code at checkout, and the registration is credited to that host. You set codes and invite limits on the Hosts page. Invite only needs Pro, or an event with Gala; on Free it shows "(Pro)" and can't be picked. See Run an invite-only event.
Members
Only signed-in members can register, on every plan. Pick which tiers under Members → Tiers who can register on the event's Settings page. It starts at All tiers. Typing a member's email at checkout doesn't unlock it. Everyone else sees how to join.
The rules behind this page
- When
- Who can register is Invite only
- Then
- A guest checks out only through a host's link or with that host's access code, and only while the host's Invite limit has room. The code credits the order to that host.
- When
- Who can register is Members
- Then
- Only someone signed in with a live membership in an allowed tier can register. Typing a member's email doesn't unlock it.
