How to Collect Information with Custom Questions

Paid accounts can add custom questions to a sign up, so you get exactly the information you need the moment someone signs up. T-shirt sizes, dietary restrictions, volunteer skills, or anything specific to your event, ask once and skip the follow-up emails.

How to Add a Custom Question

• From your Created sign ups, click the ellipsis icon (•••) next to the sign up and select Edit.
• On the Settings tab, click More under "Ask Participants For."
• Choose Add a Custom Question.
• Select an existing question, or create a new one.
• Enter your question text and choose the format.
• Decide whether a response is required or optional.
• Click Save.
