Where is it?
MeetMax registration pages have two zones where you can insert custom content, as shown below:
- At the top, below the header
- At the bottom, above the footer
In these spots, you can add custom text and images (and update them anytime). In MeetMax, these content insertions are called Messages.
You’ll create custom Messages from the Configure tab:
We’ll show the Attendee registration page in this article, but the process is the same to add Messages to Company registration pages. | |
If you also want to customize the Header and Footer of your event website, check out this article. |
Which pages do I customize?
In this article, we’re inserting custom content on the page your Attendees will see while they register for your event.
MeetMax has multiple versions of registration pages, because we offer many different ways to manage registration.
Our team will set up the correct registration pages for your event’s structure. At that point, you’ll be able to filter for them, as shown below. (We’ll cover this in more detail in a moment):
Adding a custom Message
Let’s start by adding a Message to our Attendee registration page. In this example, we’ll add a reminder about our deadline to book a hotel room.
- Step 1. Head to the Configure tab. Choose Site Design, then Messages:
- Step 2. On the Messages page, set the Filter to With Custom Messages. That will display only the Messages our team has set up for your event:
- Step 3. At this point, you might see the Attendee Registration message in the filtered list.
- If we’ve created many custom Messages for your event, you might need to add another filter to help you locate it. Learn more about filtering the Messages list here:
- Step 4. When you’ve located the Message, click the tag icon to open it for editing:
- Step 5. Now, it’s time to choose the zone of the registration page where your content will go.
- • TOP: Places your content above the registration form.
- • BOTTOM: Places your content below the registration form.
- You can add Messages to one or both areas. In this example, we’ll insert a TOP message.
- Step 6. When you choose a zone, that opens the content editor. You can add text, images, and links here.
- Click Submit to save:
- Step 7. You also have several options for displaying your Message. Hover over the question marks to learn more about each one:
- You can return to this Message at any point during your event, and change the content. Participants will see the new version automatically.

Copying and pasting directly from a Word document can create formatting issues. Instead, paste your text into a Notepad app first to remove all formatting. Then paste into the MeetMax editor. If you want to have different versions of this Message display for different kinds of users, you can set up Message Tags. If you want to add merge fields to pull personalized details into a Message, reach out to our Support team.
The Contact page: a secondary registration page
Once your Attendee has registered, they can still access their registration form in MeetMax. That way they can update their information as needed.
When the Attendee logs into MeetMax, they’ll use the Contact tab to access the form:
Your event might call this tab by a different name, like Details or Registration. |
MeetMax treats this Contact page as separate from the registration page. They have separate Messages:
You can add custom content to the TOP and BOTTOM zones of both pages. You can use the same Message for both, or different Messages.
What participants see
When you’ve saved your changes to the Message, you’ll be able to preview it.
Head to the top right corner of the editor and click the View Sample link:
MeetMax opens a sample registration page in a new browser tab:
Alternatively, you can also preview from your event’s Reference Links, or any Attendee account.
What’s next?
Now that you’ve added a custom Message to a registration page, you can also:
