# Invitations

## This guide will show you how to manage invitations.

**Invitations** featureallows you to send email invitations to attract potential attendees to register to the event.

- Before adding invitations, make sure you have created at least one ticket type. You can do this by going to **General \> Ticket Types** and creating your first ticket type if one doesn’t already exist.

- After creating the ticket types, set up form fields to build your registration form. You can find this under **General \> Form Fields**.

- Before adding an invitation, make sure you have created a registration page. You can find this under **Registration Hub \> Registration Pages**.

#### **Registration Page Setup for Invitations**

- If you want to add a **Decline Invitation** button to your registration page, go to the **Design** section of the registration page, select the **Ticketing Section**, and enable **Show Decline Invitation** under the **Widget** tab.

- You can also add an invitation message to your registration page. Go to the **Design** section of your registration page, select the **Ticketing Section**, and enable the **Invitation Message** option under the **Modules** tab.

**Registration Page**  
Select the registration page to which this invitation will direct the invitee.

**Assign a Ticket Type**  
Select ticket types to override the registration page defaults. Leave blank to use the page’s default settings. This is useful if you want the invitee to register for a specific ticket type only (Speaker, Sponsor, Exhibitor etc).

**Send Invitation Email Now**  
If disabled, the invitations will be saved as drafts instead of being sent immediately.

### **Invitation Status**

There are five different invitation statuses:

**Draft**  
The invitation has been created but not yet sent to the recipient.

**Invited**  
The invitation has been sent, but the recipient has not yet opened it.

**Viewed**  
The recipient has opened and viewed the invitation.

**Registered**  
The recipient has completed their registration for the event.

**Declined**  
The recipient has declined the invitation. After the invitee declines the invitation registration page, a pop-up is shown where they can optionally enter a reason. The reason can be viewed by hovering over the message icon next to the **Declined** status.
