ATLAS FormBuilder - Converting Between Standard & Event Registration Forms

A short tutorial on how to convert a standard form to an event registration mode, and vice versa.

Standard forms and event registration forms each have their own quirks and use cases, and due to their registration features, event registration forms possess many additional options that standard forms do not. Thankfully, the decision on whether or not a form should be an event registration form is not a permanent choice, and existing forms can be switched between the two types at any time.

To modify this setting...

Step 1 - Navigate to your form's dashboard and click Manage in the header for the "Form Properties" section.

Step 2 - Once on the Properties page of your form, locate the field titled Is this an event registration form? under the "General" tab. This field allows the form to be toggled between event registration and non-event registration states.

Important: If your form has not been changed into an event registration state before, clicking "Yes" on this field will prompt the form to ask which registration mode it should use. This decision is PERMANENT, and cannot be changed again after saving. For more information on registration modes, visit ATLAS FormBuilder - Registration Modes Explained.

Step 3 - Once you are finished making changes, click the Save button at the bottom of the page.
