How to Configure Participant Settings
The Participant Settings in Resova allow you to manage the collection of participant-specific information during the booking process. By customizing these fields, you can ensure that all necessary details are captured while maintaining a streamlined experience for your customers.
Configuring Default Information
1. Access Participant Settings
Navigate to General Settings > Participant Settings > Default Information.
2. Manage Personal/Contact Information
- Toggle the fields to activate or deactivate the personal and contact information you wish to collect from participants.
- For each field (e.g., First/Last Name, Email Address, Phone Number), select one of the following options:
- Do not ask: Exclude this field from the form.
- Optional: Allow participants to provide this information voluntarily.
- Required: Make the field mandatory to proceed with the booking.
3. Manage Address Information
- Similar to personal/contact fields, you can choose whether to collect address-related fields like Address Line 1, Town/City, State, and Country by selecting Do not ask, Optional, or Required.
Note: Participant information will be requested for each individual added to a booking. Mandatory fields may slightly extend the booking process.
4. Special Option for Minors
- Enable the setting to allow the primary customer to mark participants as minors.
- When selected, participants marked as minors will not be required to provide email addresses or waivers.
5. Save Changes
Once all adjustments are made, click Save & Update to apply your changes.
